In neighbor news, new neighbors on my floor are more like dirty neighbors. The first ones have been here maybe since the end of last year; they haven’t been an issue but they’d leave the trash compactor all kinds of ways. They eventually stopped.
Then a new set moved in and they must’ve saw that they had a language in common, because they started just throwing their garbage all kinds of sideways. One day, I had no choice but to just throw my garbage in there because I couldn’t even walk in the room. My direct neighbor (we share a wall) saw me one day and I said I can’t even get in. She went off. So, she said the porter should tell them they’re dirty and I said the porters aren’t really allowed to talk to the neighbors outside of pleasantries or else they’d get fired. The porter shows up and she starts yelling that they nasty and he’s just standing there looking like help. Few days later, roaches running towards me when I open the compactor room.
One morning, I was taking out the garbage and they had their door open. She saw me struggling past the roaches, fail and since I’m not used to this, when I went to get spray, I came back with fantastic
Spraying them just to throw out garbage. A couple of mornings later, I hear my neighbor yelling to the others. Haven’t seen garbage on the floor since
but the damage is done and the smell of bleach assaults you every time you throw out the garbage.
Woke up this morning, and my neighbor downstairs was yelling to her husband that she needs a real man. Same song, different tune. I would too if I was working daily and he was playing drums in 125th street train station
