It seems that almost every day, not every day but almost, that one of us here has a story about being treated with disrespect, cursed at and/or threatened, entitled tenants that want to and try to and sometimes do, get away with what we all know is covered in the lease that they initial and sign that they will agree to follow all rules regulations and policies and then none of them do. This is a pattern that is evolving and exploding all over the US of A and we are only hearing about it here or where we are locally. I react strongly to it and know some of you do too but some of us just let it go and that creates more of it or some of us just don't know how to react or are held back by the owner or district reps that don't have to put up with it on the front lines. I don't go to the self storage shows and get togethers but I would bet that they still try to cover what I am talking about in a cookie cutter fashion. One size fits all, that is bull****! Some of us are in danger where we work at. Some of us don't look forward to work each day because of what we may have to deal with and we have no way to protect ourselves. This is not my hard core conservative self talking, it is my hard core "I will protect myself" talking. The stories here get worse as the days go on. They get more vile from the entitled tenant point of view. Renting to anyone that fogs a mirror is part of this and lots of us, not me fortunately, are trapped because of what is expected of us. I know I am now going to be accused of stirring the pot and causing trouble but I already have told all of you that I will never put my head in the sand. I am proactive to a fault and COUNT on running in to tenants that think they will tell me how it is going to run here. Those of you that want to slam me for what I am saying, do it in a message if you feel you can't say what you want to call me here on the forum. This discourse has to start somewhere and if it starts here and goes to messages because the mods think I am just too strong in my opinions, then so be it, but know this and remember this, I am saying this because I fear for what is to come and if you don't, well there is a sand trap near you somewhere. If the show fits.
This whole thing is all about protecting us and not me wanting to cause a problem. Sometimes the strong edition of what needs to be said, does need to be said.
