Getting worse…much worse, indeed! (part 2 of 8)

Posted on June 24th, 2008 in blech,ruh roh by Gringo

The momma called Ken this morning and told him that she knows our place is a mess and that she can understand how he might assume that the odor is coming from our place, but that she didn’t really smell much of anything (although she thought she smelled urine briefly). Ken said that the odor was strong when he was in our place and she needs to get it cleaned up. The momma told Ken that it could possibly be mice or some other animal since the neighbors have been out of town. Ken said that he will bring Terminix when he comes to inspect our place next Monday. She then told him that there wouldn’t be mice in our place because 2 cats live here.

Then Ken blows up!

Wait! you have a dog and 2 cats?? You’re only allowed to have 2 pets! This is a problem!

(that’s just great)

The momma told him that she thought the limit only applied to dogs.

Ken: It’s any animals. Are there any other animals you have that I should know about?

The momma: No

Ken: Well, first things first. Get your place cleaned up and I’ll come out Monday with maintenance and terminix.

So, now the momma’s in a panic! There’s no way she can get the place cleaned up by herself in less than a week. And I can’t help her because I do not have opposable thumbs! And there’s no way that she’s getting rid of me…as for myself, I wouldn’t miss the cats, but the momma definitely would!

Tonight the momma did an internet search for organizers or cleaning services and called several people…..

She finally got a call back from a woman named JD with a an organizing business.

The momma told JD the story and JD said that she could help and that perhaps the manager won’t make a fuss if the place isn’t completely clean by Monday as long as there was at least some good progress.

The momma: I don’t know about that. This guy is a real jerk…when i first moved here he made me pay the cable assessment for 2 months even though my cable was not hooked up at that time. you can’t reason with him. he doesn’t listen.

JD: Well, why don’t we get something set up for tomorrow….should we start in the evening?

The momma: That sounds good

JD: OK, I’ll need directions to get to your place. I live in the Albany condominiums. do you know where that is?

The momma: That’s where I live! Oh no! Now you know who i’m talking about! He’s probably one of your best friends!

JD: Oh no he’s not!! I’ve had some run-ins with Ken myself!

The End!
