Don't let it get too ugly, you'll end up in jail. Be forceful, but polite.
Already working on that.
Anyways... I am jumping for joy, as my hot water just came back on. HIP HIP HOORAY!! :P

They have them, but not in the units, which is required by Illinois law. Also do not have flashing alarms, and both state and federal law says that the property management is solely responsible for paying for those, and I am not. That did not make the property manager very happy, and I just warned staff that there was a potential for things to turn ugly.
Yes, I do. If they want to kick/lock me out, then they got another thing coming-- I did my research, and if they do that, they would be sued for damages and possibly discrimination, and that could cost them a LOT. Don't think I don't know what to expect, because I do, and I'm prepared. I will be careful, but I also have good support, as well. And I intend to do things legally, and do it the right way.Do you have a caseworker ? If yes thy should be helping you with all this mess. If you don't have another place to move to you may needs to not be so threating. You do not want to end up not want to end up on the streets in the winter. You're living in a privately run place and it sound like they do not follow the housing code very good so they more than likely would not have second thoughts about kicking you or locking you out. I would turn the pressure down until you have a backup plane to move to.

I think I would want to burn down my damn house if I had cockroaches this big! Holy CRAP!
You made it sound like you had no where to move to while trying to find a better place to live . I read a lot of bad stuff about privately run places some are run by thugs as a front . And they do not care about lawsuits etc.
Going to get my dying phone replaced at last. :P
Okay, they just removed the big cockroach, and hopefully that'll get something done. Safe to say the maintaince person freaked out when he saw how big it was.
Also, I'm hoping to talk to management about the CO2/Fire Alarm mandate, and hopefully come to a resolution. If one can't be reached, then breaking the lease early becomes an option, per law.
RIP phone.
Not just yet. I just got sent to North Ave and Kimball to replace it at the coporate store there. Gonna make me arrive home LATE.
