The Battle of Who Could Care Less

A note today from my apartment manager, in response to my email on Saturday informing him that the apartment is STILL leaking:

We have now placed an emergency leak repair service call to a local professional vendor. Their typical response time is 24 hours or less. The problem has migrated to the unit below you, so we will get to the bottom of this immediately, no matter the cost.

Thanks (again and again) for your wonderful patience throughout this ordeal. Just think, when we're all done with this, you just might have the most water-tight apartment in Seattle!


OH, how badly I wanted to write back:

...and just think, if you'd taken me seriously four weeks ago, this wouldn't be an expensive emergency!

AND BY THE WAY MY CARPET IS STILL WET!

----------------------------------------------
UPDATE: 4/4/07 AND THEN THERE WERE THREE...

I finally dropped a note on Monday for my neighbors, who share the moldy wall with me. I had told the maintanence guy he should do it but he obviously ignored me, because their response email today said they discovered black mold all over the wall behind their bed.

This is getting ridiculous.

So do you think that you actually appear to the writer to have been "patient", or was that supposed to be some kind of joke?

I like how they said *might* have the most water-tight apartment in Seattle.
