In case no one's reminded you recently, go ahead and test the batteries in your smoke alarms! Don't roll your eyes: it seems minor, but it could save your life.
You might not need to check your smoke detector if it goes off every single time you cook. Then you know it's working! But heaven forbid there was ever a fire in the middle of the night, that detector would be loud enough to wake you so you could get outside to safety. It's not the kind of thing you should neglect, as u/tdlm40 knows after their run-in with their landlord. They're a tenant who bought a brand new detector after moving in. The landlord should be thanking them for saving a few bucks and taking the initiative, but instead, they're giving them a hard time about it.
Some commenters sided with the tenant. Others sided with the landlord, stating that he may have been required to get a professional to do the install. You can decide for yourself: keep scrolling to read the entire tale of malicious compliance.
After that, this hotel worker absolutely suffers each year during the hotel's annual Board of Directors meeting thanks to bossy executive assistants demanding nicer rooms.
