: You're complaining because it took all of three hours to respond to your plumbing problem? And they got there at 8:30 in the morning? What part of "sh+t happens" don't you understand?
: You must be very unexperienced, or one of those people who don't easily get a clue. Most people understand what risks come with living in a basement apartment, and they take steps to protect their belongings. In your case this ought to be doubly true because it happened before! That was your big clue, Elizabeth. Sewers do back up, it isn't a big plot, it's probably not even the landlord's fault. You or somebody like you is probably flushing Pampers along with the usual tampons. Next time this happens, will it come as a big surprise to you? I don't doubt it will.
To Carl, I asked for an educated opinion. Not an uneducated one. In the manner you responded makes me wonder if you're a landlord. Just because I reside in a basement apartment does not mean that I am a no-class, uneducated welfare recipient. Oh and no, I am not an idiot who flushes crap down the toilet. So, thanks! Your response makes me even more happier that I finally closed on my new house in Upstate NY. So I can get away from "clueless" persons like yourself.
