Tenant gets trapped in his apartment when a faulty doorknob jams closed, seeks revenge after getting abandoned for 4 hours by the new leasing agency : ‘Destroy your landlord’

Landlords everywhere are raising the rent. Their reasoning? Rising costs, I suppose. Well, every renter that's ever forked over ½ their paycheck to a pair of greasy landlord hands knows that this is a farce. Your hard-earned paycheck is just lining the pockets of whatever landlord or leasing agency is managing your apartment–and I'd bet ½ my paycheck that, while you're paying more every month, you're likely getting far less.

For the renter in our next story, his building's transfer to a new leasing agency was the first of many huge property letdowns. After living in his apartment for 7 years, he'd finally had enough when the emergency phone line to the maintenance crew onsite left him hanging. In fact, after a potentially life-threatening incident, the original poster of this story stands by his two-week notice.

Scroll for the whole story of how a guy got trapped in his apartment and then abandoned by his emergency maintenance crew, only to seek revenge a few days later.
