I am starting to think about moving out of this apartment into another one about 3-4 blocks away. I'm just sick and tired of the "care" the landlord gives this place. Our parking lot has been plowed maybe 3 times this entire year(at one point in time we had over 2 feet of snow on the ground). Its now a skating rink with about 4 inches of ice in it and no salt or any preventative measures for slipping in sight. The sidewalks and outdoor stairs aren't much better and I've slipped(thankfully on my way up) many times trying to get up to my apartment. Then there is the level of care that he gives the apartments. If you send a repair notice it takes about 5-6 weeks for him to even call you back so you can set an apointment in another month or two. After the second time my dad drove up from Chicago to fix things I decided that I wasn't going to try to put in any more repair notices. Well now I have a fire hazard on my hands because my front door won't open any more. I have to fight with it for 5 minutes to get it open and then once its open it doesn't want to shut.
So I'm thinking about moving but the problem is I can't move until June and then I would only be in town until I graduate which at most would be another year. So I don't want to move and then have to move again a year later. That and I think there will be about a 100 dollar increase in rent which I don't think I can aford despite working 3 jobs next semester. The place I want to move is an excellent facility that actually has air conditioning(which is a vast impovement over this hell hole). I'm not sure if they take pets though, with the apartments being so nice I kind of doubt it but I am going to call on Monday to see how much a one bedroom apartment is going for and if they take pets.
So I need vibes for making a decision because I don't know if I want to move just to have to move again, but this place is driving me up a wall and if I don't do something soon, I think I might just rip the door of the hinges so I don't have to deal with it anymore.
