WHEN WE CAME DOWN TO LOOK AT AN APARTMENT EVERYTHING LOOKED NORMAL AND WE EVEN PUT A DEPOSIT ON THE ONE WE LIKED. WE TOLD THEM WE WOULD BE DOWN WITH THE REST OF THE MONEY IN THE MORNING AND THEY SAID THEY WOULD HOLD OUR APT. FOR US. WHEN WE SHOWED UP WITH OUR MOVING TRUCK AND THE RENT THE NEXT MORNING THOUGH, THEY SAID THAT THEY HAD RENTED OUR APT. "BY ACCIDENT." (WE LEFT AT 4:30 P.M. HOW THEY FORGOT WE HAD JUST LEFT AND LEFT A DEPOSIT IN 30 MIN. THEY HAD NO EXPLINATION FOR)

WE WERE UPSET, BUT WHAT COULD WE DO' WE HAD TO TAKE ANOTHER APT. OF THIER CHOOSING SINCE WE HAD TAKEN THEM AT THIER WORD AND OUR TRUCK WAS LOADED. THEY STUCK US ALL THE WAY IN THE BACK CORNER OF THE COMPLEX AND HAVE FORGOTEN ABOUT US EVERY SINCE,UNTIL WE ASK FOR SOMETHING. THEN, THEY RETALIATE.

OUR REFRIGERATER STARTED TURNING ITSELF OFF RITE AWAY, THE FIRST TIME WHEN WE WERE OUT OF TOWN FOR THE WEEKEND. ALL OF OUR NEW GROCERYS FOR THE NEW APT WERE RUINED WEEK ONE. WE CALLED IN AND REPORTED THAT THE BREAKER KEPT SWITCHING OFF AND THAT SOMETHING NEEDED TO BE DONE. "THE NEXT DAY" SO CALLED MAINTENANCE SHOWED UP AND FLIPPED THE BREAKER BACK ON AND LEFT. I CALLED IN AND SAID THAT THIS WAS UNACCEPTABLE AND THAT I COULD FLIP A BREAKER, THEY NEED TO FIX THE PROBLEM. AGAIN THEY SENT OUT "MAINTENANCE" WHO AGAIN FLIPPED THE BREAKER. I CALLED IN AGAIN, BUT THIS TIME THEY WERE READY. THEY SAID THAT THEY DIDN'T HAVE A KEY TO MY APT. AND THAT THEREFOR THEY COULD NOT GET IN. I SAID IT DOESN'T MATTER BECAUSE WE WERE THERE WAITING (AGAIN). WELL, THE HIGH SCHOOLER THAT WAS "HELPING" ME THIS DAY CHANGED THE ISSUE FROM US NOT HAVING ELECTRIC TO THEM NOT HAVING A KEY. I TOLD THEM THAT THAT WAS NOT THE ISSUE AT HAND AND THAT WE BY THIS TIME HAD NO ELECTRIC AT ALL. THIS CHILD HAD THE NERVE TO TELL ME THAT NOBODY WAS COMING TO FIX MY ELECTRIC UNTIL I TURNED IN A COPY OF MY DOOR KEY. NOT UNTIL I THREATENED TO CALL THE HOUSING AUTHORITY DID THEY DROP THE ISSUE WITH THE KEY AND CALL A REAL ELECTRITION. HE FOUND THAT THE WIRING IN THE WALLS WAS "RIGGED LIKE A HUNTING CABIN" AND THAT IT WAS A WONDER IT HADN'T BURNT DOWN THE WHOLE BUILDING. HE FOUND CUT WIRING ON THE BACK OF THE REFRIGERATOR AS WELL AND REPORTED TO THE OFFICE. ANOTHER DAY OR TWO WENT BY AND THE FRIDGE WAS STILL ON THE BLINK SO I CALLED IN AGAIN. AGAIN THEY WERE BACK TO BEING OBSESSED WITH THE KEY AND I HAD TO REMIND THEM OF THE HOUSING AUTHORITY. IN THE END, AFTER ABOUT A MONTH OF THIER CRAP, THEY GAVE ME A NEW FRIDGE. THE LEASING AGENT HOWEVER, WHILE SHE WAS AT MY DOOR ARGUING ABOUT A KEY, NOTICED MY CAT AND HIT ME WITH A $350 DEPOSIT THE VERY NEXT DAY IN OBVIOUS RETALIATION. IS THAT WEAK OR WHAT'

THE NEXT ISSUE WAS WITH THE PLUMBING. THIS IS REGULAR. IN FACT THE WATER TO THE WHOLE COMPLEX IS OFF TODAY! BUT ABOUT TWO MONTHS AGO THE PLUMBING WAS COMING OUT OF THE PIPES AND DUMPING AT MY FRONT DOOR AND AT THE NEIGHBORS FRONT DOOR. IT WAS WHOLE TIRDS AND THE TISSUE MY NEIGHBORS USED TO WIPE. IT WAS DISGUSTING AND IT STUNK SOMETHING HORRIBLE. IT FLOODED THE WHOLE SIDE OF MY APARTMENT AND WRAPPED AROUND THE BACKSIDE AS WELL. IT STAYED LIKE THAT FOR A WEEK OR MORE, MEANWHILE NOBODYS TOILETS WORKED PROPERLY AND WHEN THEY DID WORK THEY DUMPED AT OUR DOORSTEP. FINALLY REAL PLUMBERS DID COME AND FIX THE PROBLEM, BUT LV LEFT ALL THE TP AND CRAP AT OUR DOORSTEPS TO DRY IN THE SUMMER SUN. WE HAD FLIES AND MAGGOTS AND PROBABLY EVEN VULTURES FLYING AT OUR DOORSTEP. I HAD TO FINALLY CLEAN IT UP MYSELF BECAUSE IT LOOKED LIKE I LIVED IN A THIRD WORLD COUNTRY RITE OUT MY DOOR. MY NEIGHBOR STILL HAS A HUGE HOLE NEXT TO HER DOOR 2 MONTHS LATER THAT WAS NEVER COVERED.

ALSO JUST OUTSIDE MY DOOR, THERE WERE THESE BUSHES GROWING LIKE 30 FEET (FEET NOT INCHES) 30 FEET! THAT POKE ME IN THE FACE WHEN I COME OUT THE DOOR AND POKE ME IN THE BACK OF THE HEAD WHEN I TRY TO GET IN. THEY HAVE THORNS AND HAVE ON MORE THAN ONE OCCASION SCRATCHED MY FACE OR TORN MY CLOTHS. YOU HAVE TO DUCK AND BRUSH THEM ASIDE JUST TO GET TO THE DOOR. IT'S LIKE GOING THROUGH A SMALL JUNGLE. I HAVE BEEN COMPLAINING FOR 6 OR 8 MONTHS. WHEN I TOLD THEM I WAS SENDING DIGITAL PICTURES TO THE MANAGEMENT COMPANY THEY FINALLY SENT SOMEONE OUT TO CUT IT DOWN, BUT IT LOOKS LIKE CRAP, THEY ONLY DID JUST ENOUGH SO I COULD GET IN AND OUT OF MY DOOR, AND THE PILES OF TRIMMINGS HAVE BEEN THERE FOR OVER A WEEK.

DON'T LET ME LEAVE OUT THE MOST IMPORTANT PART THOUGH. THE SAME LITTLE BRAT THAT RETALIATED AGAINST ME BEFORE, SHE DID IT AGAIN. SHE STEWED OVER THIS LAST INCIDENT ALL WEEKEND AND WHEN SHE CAME BACK, TOLD HER MANAGER THAT I WAS ABUSIVE TO HER OVER THE PHONE AND THAT I SHOULD BE EVICTED. THEY HAD TO WALK THROUGH THE PILES OF BRUSH THAT I WAS COMPLAINING ABOUT TO PUT THE NOTICE ON MY DOOR.

ABANDONED CARS IN THE PARKING LOT. TRASH ON THE LAWNS. ILLEGAL ALIENS BARBEQUING IN THE PARKING LOTS. GATES DON'T WORK. THE NEIGHBOR TO MY LEFT HAS BEEN BROKEN IN TO. THERE WAS AN ATTEMPT TO BREAK INTO MY PLACE DOCUMENTED BY THE POLICE. THE NEIGHBOR TO MY RIGHT WAS ASSAULTED IN THE PARKING LOT. THERE IS A KNOWN PEEPING TOM ROAMING THE COMPLEX. ONE OF SAN ANTONIO'S BIGGEST AND AT ONE TIME NICEST COMPLEXES HAS GONE TO THE DUMPS.
