And now for something completely to be expected: GRARH!
For today's angry rant, I draw the reader's attention to a letter from our apartment rental people. The relevant highlights of this letter include: "Water and sewer costs have always been an expense that we cannot control. Including this utility in the rent is unfair to the more conservative resident, as wasteful use of utilities causes the rents to increase." ... "The amount charged for your apartment will be based on the occupant ratio of the apartment."
Now, correct me if I'm wrong, but if they've been including this bill in the rent all this time, and now we're going to be paying it ourselves, for the purpose of fairness to residents who use less water, surely we should be billed based on how much water we use, not on how many people are on the lease? And surely our rent should go down, now that water is not included? I may have to pull a Rowena down at the office, asking when we can expect our rent to decrease, and such.
