--> so the first day of my new place I put in a window unit AC. Its working fine. The second day, it quit working. It didn't just quit blowing cold air, it didn't turn on any more. I thought it was really weird.

So a week passes and a really hot day comes around. I decide to open er up and take a look. To my astonishment, the power cord on the inside has been snipped (very evidently snipped with wire cutters not mistake) and the thermometer wire is cut as well.

I was like, SHIT I can't believe that I moved into another shady situation. After talking about it with friends, they brought up the possibility that may be my last room mate (crazy bitch) could have cut it up. At first I was like no way, it was working the first day, but then I figured it might be true cause we did have a discussion about air conditioners.

OF course I put it back together and it was working fine again. I figured not to say anything for two reasons: 1. If old bitch did it, then it would only cause stress between me and my land lord. 2. If my land lord actually cut it, then how shady is that? And why would they own up to it if I asked.

So I started noticing that if I left my fan on in my room (locked by key), that is would get turned off by the time I got home. WEIRD! huh?

Two days ago the owner of the house (Landlord) asked me if my air conditioner was working. I was like um yeah, I fixed it and its been working fine. She said "Well, I was just checking because one of the breakers blew and it busted our air conditioner." I hadn't actually turned it on for a week so I was like, well as far as I know its working fine and its also plugged through a power strip that has protection against that type of thing.

I suspected it got sabotaged again, but didn't want to check cause it would have put me in a bad fucking mood. Tonight I actually wanted to turn it on, so I pressed the on button and (not to my surprise) it didn't even light up or turn on.

Once again I take it apart to see whats wrong. More or less see how she sabotaged it this time. I figured she'd be more sly about it this time like cracking the computer chip or some thing else way more internal. HAHAHAHAHAH!!!!, but WTF! She just cut it again, right against the spot I twisted back together.

FOR REAL WHAT THE FUCK!!!!!!!!!!!

How is some one so fucking stupid to just give away that info to me. Now I'm abit worried that some other crazy shit might go down. I'm gonna start looking for other places or possibly ask a friend to let me sleep on their couch for a month or two. FUCK them there goes their notice. I'm going to move out as secretly as possible and one day they will be like, where is the rent, shit!, where is tom? Haven't seen him for a couple of weeks.

Yeah WTF?

there isn't a button for 'i was scared by this blog'..........freakin freaks

I would put a note in the aircon so she sees it next time saying "cut these wires once more and I will bury you in the fucking woods bitch"

omg what?
landlord stories give me the creeps regardless

hate the fact that when you rent a space the owner more often than not sees it as their property that they can check up on
my feelings are, you rent, it's yours for the duration.
imagine when renting a car or a movie, someone would call or visit to ask if everything is ok

but act complete ignorant and deny all knowledge if she pulls you up about it.

when you leave, put all kinds of manner of nastiness around that flat - mustard and cress seeds in the carpet, a fish in a panel behind either the sink or bath, etc etc.

Now start signing up her name to all kinds of mail order stuff - mostly funeral arrangements and accident insurance. even get sales people to call round on her.

unscrew her tail light on her car and connect wires from the terminals and put them into the fuel tank. do it so she'll see it but dont leave fingerprints!! ;)

bb01 - in Uk law, if you rent a property, it is yours as far as the duration of the tenancy agreement goes. you have distinct rights to privacy that state the landlord has no right to enter without permission [if you have the whole property, its considered that a 'fair amount of notice' is 24 hours].

I had issues with a landlord a few years back and had to eventually change the locks on the doors to keep him from letting himself in and being there waiting when we came home. he wasnt nasty but just had absolutely no concept of privacy so we had to educate him the hard way.

wtf.
reminds me a little of a landlord i was living at a year ago.
that'S scary as hell.

hope you get out there as quick as possible.
best of luck, mate.
i'd stop paying the rent and stuff

I agree with Zanf's solutions ;)

Didn't someone on em411 once mention that a crazy landlord once walked in on someone here having sex!?

not to lol at you or anything, but.........................LOL

well, it's probb in Belgian law as well, only practice sometimes takes a detour from theory
especially if they have an excuse like; "that boiler needed urgent replacing" well, what, are they psychic?
ugh
zanf said: "he wasnt nasty but just had absolutely no concept of privacy"

def recognize that
unbelievable to me sometimes

good luck hardvolt
these things can be a real distraction
if youre gonna go the guerilla route of zanf, make sure your traces are covered

bb01: thats a part of the law - you have to grant them reasonable access with things in mind like maintenence etc but they have to give reasonable notice to that they intend to visit and why. Its common courtesey as well.

Seriously, Tom, change your locks and make arrangements to move. That or set up a webcam on motion detection. record her coming into your room, fucking with shit and then later, calmly sit her down and play her the recording.

yeah, i'd do the webcam thing just like zanf says. hide it well. and then hopefully she'll be embarrassed as shit when she sees the video playback and stop. there's also the added bonus you can catch her doing other things you might not be aware of. for instance, sticking your toothbrush in places you might not want it to go.

i'm having a hard time understanding her motives for breaking your air conditioning repeatedly. is her husband an air conidtioner repairman? would she try and sell you a new air conditioner? does the noise from your ac bother her? i wonder what it is.

maybe she just likes to play mindgames with people and has decided that shes going to fuck with Tom.

I say do the webcam then initiate full on guerilla warefare on her. Spike the bitch on so much acid then convince her that she was the passing thought of a misscarried foetus and she has to bury herself in the park, whilst letting out a primal vulvic scream. Then call the cops that a woman is in the park who is looning out and should be sectioned.

thats nuts... wow ..
