Today a resident came to my office to tell me it smelled like someone died in his apartment and he wanted me to check and make sure it wasn't him...

I love my job!

PS- there was no dead guy in his apartment.

We all talk about horror stories, what's your funny story?

Sounds like something that would happen here lol.

My stories 1- I noticed two of my residents standing in the hall and they were both looking at what appeared to be a microwave dinner. I didn't think much of it until a few minutes later when the both walked into my office. As with many microwaveble foods there are several different cook times depending on the type of microwave. One of the cook times suggested 10:30. They wanted to know if that meant they couldn't cook the meal until 10:30 that night.
2- My building is inclosed and there is a seating area outside my office. Two of my residents basically live in those chairs. One day as I was going to the ladies room they stopped to ask me if I was sick. I wasn't so I asked them why. Well they had noticed I was using the restroom more than usual and thought I might have a bladder infection. These ladies know my bathroom habits!!!

This was a few years ago, but there was a male tenant and his 4 year old in my office and we were discussing some ongoing maintenance issues which it seemed even the experts were stomped with. During the talk there was all of a sudden this awful smell. The tenant noticed the expression on my face and he said, “my son cuts some wind now and then”. The little boy looked at his dad and said, “ oh, you lie, remember you told me people that lie go to hell? “ That was not me that farted in here”. I am so sorry I could not keep a straight face as much as I tried. I was crying my stomach hurt me so bad!

Mark,

What was funny was that little four year old. I mean he was a well behaved little guy. Now that I reflect back on it, he had this Dennis the Menis look about him. In fact he did not say anything before that time and then he perked up. He was not taking that. The expression on his face when he was talking and of course his Dad was a wreck and it did not help with my laughing. Beleive me you would have had to have been there to really feel the moment!

Today a resident came in to ask for help finding an arranged marriage!

PS- He's a nice guy, religious, long time stable job, and has a nice apartment (of course!)

:laugh:

I used to work for a little retailer by a certain name, which will become evident in a moment... but we would get this question at least once per week:

"Do you carry STAPLES?"

It was tempting to respond:

"Yes, we do; but we are out of stock TODAY"


We would conduct our inventories overnight and the first person to complain about the overnight would be sent to count staples..... INDIVIDUALLY...... Needless to say; we had no complaints after too long.

I've always wanted to ask that but I'm not a brave enough smart-alec!
