I was raised with an excellent work ethic. I am honest to a fault, and I am extremely grateful to have this job. I have had highs and lows in my career due to many factors like economy taking a turn for the worse, or health issues with family members, having to relocate cross country for that. I'll... -
Agreed. My sons- who both just got out of the Army this past year- were considering taking positions as Police Officers, or first responder type work. After watching the news the last year they both are not about to put up with city officials not having their backs. We are also a highly conservative...Leave a comment:

We have a tenant with a son who has paranoid -schizophrenia. He is usually OK. Once or twice we had some close calls, he was screaming at people who were not there in the hallways and it scared the beejeezus out of us in the office because we thought someone was being attacked or had stuff fall on them...Leave a comment:

I wish I had police officers storing here. It would take an act of congress to get the police to respond to us quickly. In the past, their average response time was between 15 and 30 minutes. Not acceptable, given that they are less than a mile from here.Last edited by wc1974; 17th August 2019, 04:20 PM.Leave a comment:

Well, as a 5 ft 8 inch female with a soft spoken voice, I get a lot of people who think I am a pushover. They quickly discover that although my voice is soft I will definitely call them out on their behavior! I don't have the height to intimidate anyone
But I guess in a pinch I do posses the girth...

Had to reach for the Mace today.......
This guy! Uggh! Comes into the office because he doesn't know the code to unlock the doors to the building. I ask him his name, he is not in our system. I ask if he is here for a unit that is under his name or another name? His wife's name. OK... So I gently explain that I cannot give him that information.... -
We use Plug-n-Pay payment processing through Quik-Stor, and we have had this happen a few times. Not sure where the error lies. If you ask Quikstor was it a glitch with their system they say it was PlugnPay. If you ask PlugNPay they say it must have been QuikStor. So- who knows? I am able to access...Leave a comment:

I too have teared up with a customer going through some pretty serious times. I haven't cried at work due to stress or co worker, or bosses. I don't allow people to talk down to me or treat me unfairly, I don't care who they are I will call them on it and we will deal with it right then and there. So,...Leave a comment:

When a tenant asks to use the dumpster and says "its just a little something, It will fit I promise" then you go outside and find this:...Leave a comment:

I call local charity organizations that benefit the local community. We have one here called Abraham's House. Their purpose is to take previously homeless, or those who were in jail or went through rehab to educate them, then train them in a job, help them find employment and ultimately become independent....Leave a comment:

Welcome Spamsammich, Are you new to the industry or do you have some experience with storage? I lived and worked in AZ for 8 years, working for U-STOR as their area manager for the Tucson stores.I do not miss that heat!...Leave a comment:

I had a Christmas card I sent to my son while in boot camp returned to me....4 years later. Gifts or cards were not allowed apparently. But instead of sending it back they sat on it for awhile. I sent him a picture of it to show the date it was mailed out and then the return to sender stamped on it....Leave a comment:

At a previous job I was the assistant manager for a luxury apartment complex. ( I also managed a tax credit property later but that's a whole other topic.) The manager at the luxury apartments had me do everything: all the rent raise notices, balance the days, weeks and month ends accounts. Submit all...Leave a comment:

KrisinNC, I posted something similar a while back about this. Its really hard to hear about people who are actually struggling with health issues,who tell you all about their hardships and are begging for help. Its also one of those things where we hear so many sob stories over time it kind of makes...Leave a comment:

I agree, I would love to see that because I think we would get a lot more participation and higher bids than the usual $50 or so. It was mentioned to me that our property management company was thinking about it. I hope they do!...Leave a comment:

We didnt have cable or internet for about 5 years, so all the shows on Netflix are new to me
I feel like I waste so much time watching TV now! We used to go for walks or get household chores done when we got home from work. Now those things are saved for days off, and at night we spend about 2 hours...

I've been watching Netflix. Found a show called The Last Ship, kind of like the show Jericho, only with a the Navy involved and a plague instead of a nuclear attack.Leave a comment:
