Ambler, PA
Quoted from northerndude:I dint dare charge my tenants to let them in if they made an easy mistake of locking them selves out.
I like my tenants, I live 700 yards away, it’s easy for me.
BUT, I had an idiot lock himself IN his unit. What an idiot. He turned the handle, the nylon square inside the hands spun and the handle turned but nothing mechanical worked anymore. I had to scurry up the low balcony, have him let me in sliding door, from the inside you can see the backset. He got me a butter knife and I slide the lock mech into backset.
What a fuckin idiot, he was a pharmacist, has zero “handy” skills and he should never own anything himself ever.
It’s 2020 and not like the old days when most people had a small workbench and/or a basic set of tools in the garage or basement.
I’ve built homes for customers who don’t even own a screwdriver!
Lots of people out there who are educated as far as whatever business they work in but can barely function above the mentality your average 5th grader.
I’ve had homebuyers call several years after they moved into their homes and say “ I just locked myself out of my house... you have a extra key on file at the office right?
WTF? Scary stupid...
