So angry

[popkin16]

So we've found a place. We were told that the people living there agreed to be out by February 1st...which came and went with no call from the manager. Okay. We call and the manager says she's just waiting on the title, which really shouldn't take that long. We waited a week and a half with no word, so we called her to get an update. She didn't pick up. We called, left messages, etc. for about a week and when we finally got a hold of her, we were told again that she's just waiting on the title. So we call the people who lived in the place before us and they agree to meet us to hand over the title (and then never show up, which they've done twice). We've agreed to meet the people to exchange the title tomorrow (again), but I guess the manager caught wind, because she called and said, "Since you're going behind my back, it's going to be another $350 to move in." 

WHAT. THE. FUCK.

I'm so angry. We're poor, you dumbass, and the rest of the money we have was going to toward repairs. What the fuck is your actual problem? Are you 12? Oh you went behind my back - who cares, as long as we have the title and pay you your fucking money? What is with the increase in price? AND such a huge increase, too. I bet you she's going to pocket that damn money. We have so few options too, it's not like we can just go somewhere else.

Hi! I'm the person from the DDKM working ten million hours and writing ReqAet. At first I popped over here to more personally say thank you so much for being so encouraging (I hate the comm's mandatory anon rule - anon should be an option), but I saw this post and I am also housing hunting right now and just wanted to say that this manager sounds like A PIECE OF SHIT and that's FREAKING BOGUS and I am SO SORRY that this crap is happening to you. :(

AH. Hello! I'm glad you stopped by :) I had thought the kink meme's anon rule extended only to those posting fills, but at least this way I get to gush a little more about your fill :) I really love your take on it and I'm very intrigued about what you're going to do next. You have a great way with descriptions and the characterization is spot on.

Thank you! It is fucking bogus - we're hoping we can find someplace else, but we're poor, so our options are VERY limited. We'll see how it all shakes out. Good luck with your own house hunting!

Yeah no, sadly not. I thought that at first, too, based on kinkmemes I was on in the past, but this one is really strict for some reason about anon-only. I think it's a shame, since it also inhibits the ability to form friendships, but what do I know............

Thank you so much! :D The rest is meant to be pretty comical because it was based on comments in the thread with the OP gushing over the War Boys in Mad Max: Fury Road, but we'll see what happens. I tend to intersperse silliness with gravitas, so who knows! \o/

Good luck! D: I'm looking on a single income in a city that is rapidly pricing out its locals (ahem, self included), so I've been struggling to find an affordable place for a year. :\

I agree with you - leaving the option open for some people to post under their username fosters friendships. Makes the community stronger :) But I'm sure the mods have their reasons for their strict anon-only policy.

Silliness mixed with gravitas sounds like the perfect mix, to me. Judging by what you've written so far, I have no doubt you'll write something great.

Oh geez. A year long search - it sucks that your city is pricing out locals. How ungrateful of them, to force locals to move. I'll keep my fingers crossed that you find something affordable.
