Sudden evection notice
9 years ago
I haven't wanted to post much of anything on FA for a while, butt my hands been forced. Our landlord just felt like forcing an eviction onto us, and the law apparently isn't on our side on this matter ether.
I need to go into a bit of detail but a few days ago we found someone in the laundry room. We of course called the police as no one's suppost to be in there. Our landlords apparently got a police tracker though, called the police off, and then called us telling us not to do such. So this is already a red flag both ways, we feel something's fishy, and he doesn't like us. Today we get a notice from peoples gas saying they are turning off gas for the entire building. We call about that, because having gas turn off doing winter, after it's been snowing at that, is PRETTY BIG. He get's pissy about that, and then declares we're being 'too much of a problem' and pretty much says "Get moving papers, I want you out'. We call housing on the matter to fight it off, and their answer was pretty much "Well, if he wants to kick you out...he's allowed to kick you out...". We call the cops, because he doesn't have anything directly on us to force this ( we haven't damaged anything, we've passed our inspections, we've paid our rent and unity bills on time without fail )...But because we are on a 'month by month' lease, he apparently can just declare us "Not allowed to live here" ( because the lease isn't singed every month on our end in turn, so on any single given month, we're apparently not on the lease beyond the first time we singed ) and there's nothing they can do about it.
...We are pretty much in a spot where, someone doing wrong, directly, and got his hand caught in the cookie jar, will get no reprimand...while we, who have been doing our best to do and stay level, now are being punished because we poked our head into a situation, and then asked about why the hell is there a notice saying the gas is being shut off. So...after moving, getting set up, getting a new PC, actually enjoying the location we are in and the like...we're forced to move, if we like it or not. I am crushed, destroyed...and honestly...I don't even know anymore if I'm even worth the effort to save this time. My projects have been dead in the water for a while, my job hunting's been null, and I don't really have anything to show for it all...
...but I wanted to get this out here, in case I end up vanishing for good, and no one's able to get in touch. At least this is here.

Here's hoping we find you happy and healthy next time you update your situation.
Fuck that dipshit.
And then try to market / present your skills as best suitable as possible.
Think of what you could do for the company:
What are your strong points?
What are your "selling points" , so to speak?
Ideally you have the situation where they look for somebody with specific skills - ideally some you posess.
We need you, and have high hopes in you.
But hey maybe your money is more welcome someplace else, keep chin up.
We're trying, but honestly because of how housing works out here...we're pretty fucked as we just do NOT have the money to fund this mess again. ( last time
I'm in yet another spot were I must beg for money to continue to live.
I've also dealt with shitty landlords who've not only outright stolen from me, and would go so far as to torment a bed-ridden disabled person such as myself (at the time, I can walk and take care of myself now)
You are worth saving dude, don't give up.
Literally, you were doing things above board and on the level, but he was basically telling you, almost 'Ignore these flagrant breaches of the law, or I'll kick you out...' and then, because you were honest, he did pull the lease out from under you.
I have to say that he's major league in the wrong, but using what laws there are to protect his slimy ass. You are really not having much luck here, and I hope that some good samaritan steps in and finds a way to get you out of dealing with these shit heads that seem to push you between one guy who'll kick you out for stupid reasons and another.
But after reading your profile and then your journal, I understand your sentiment.
I've had my share of frustrations of a similar kind. My family once lost our apartment
because our stupid landlord was kicking out families to make these apartment available
for spoiled rich college students. :( Eh long incredible story really.
I come here once in awhile to lose myself from reality if only for a little while to catch a breather
before facing it all over again on a daily.
I really hope you get the support you need and plenty of justice.
