  • A sign posted on a window saying “For Rent” outside the property management office of the apartment complex.
  • "Epic Revenge Against High School B*lly"

    I'm not petty or one to normally take revenge but I inadvertently became the landlord of one of my HS b ies.
  • At this point I was 25 and well past HS and it didn't even phase me initially.
  • I was young and had a big heart, we had massive low income properties which I managed for an absentee owner.
  • I was the type of landlord that would take in people running from a bad situation and furnish their home with donated furnishings.
  • I would buy tenants meals, work out payment arrangements if they couldn't pay rent by giving them odd jobs or spot them some cash when they ran into a jam.
  • Tenants absolutely adored me because of the good I did for everyone. So anyways this girl for some bizarre reason tried to start a fight with me in the lobby of the building where my staff and tenants witnessed the interaction.
  • I told her to grow up and I wouldn't be taking any disrespect from her now that we're grown adults.
  • However she sealed her fate, as word got around the entire building of 200+ units turned against her.
  • An annoyed tenant folds her arms in frustration.
  • Someone made a c e poster and cemented it on her door, another tenant left heavy machinery going over her head and left for the weekend, people were heckling her anytime she walked through the building.
  • After about 2 weeks she came and begged me to let her out of the lease, I let her go for her own safety and because things were escalating.
  • Come moving day I had my revenge, I mysteriously lost the elevator key that day just as the movers showed up.
  • She went ballistic, was kicking my office door and throwing a tantrum as I just smirked at her.
  • My 1 petty moment in life, I'm now much older and that was probably a bit much but that girl really brought it on herself.
  • The landlord holds the elevator keys she “conveniently” forgot.
  • Solabound-the-2nd I feel for the movers here, poor peeps had a much harder time because of this. I hope they had good compensation.

  • manmountain123 What did she do to you in high school? How did she become your tenant ?
  • Educational_Pie4385 Original Poster's Reply I took over as building manager and she already lived in the building, I found out she was a tenant when she came to pay rent. She was just nasty, one of the typical mean girls. It didn't help I wouldn't stand up for myself, I had a rocky home life and was petrified social services would get involved and separate the family if I fought back.
  • NeuroDawg You weren't a landlord. You were a property manager.
