Tenant Gets Unfair Fine, Pays In 37 Installments

As mostly polite people, we put up with far too much. We pay our rent in a timely fashion, we follow rules, and we get in hardly any fistfights over buffet crab legs. But the powers that be try to take advantage of our generosity at every single turn. And what's crazy is that more often than not, we go along with it. Sometimes landlords and bosses don't realize that our polite compliance is negotiable. Sometimes it's important to show people who abuse their power that we have every right to be annoying too.

This tenant was just trying to make things more convenient for their neighbors, but management wasn't about that. So naturally, things got very inconvenient for management. Why do people have to power trip anyway? It goes to show that it doesn't take much to throw a satisfying wrench into the gears of the powers that be. For more people standing up against totally stupid fees and fines, here's a guy who got hounded for trivial debt and sent them a dime and here's a guy who mudded himself out of a BS car rental fee.
