anyone deal with the following: had roof leak that caused ceiling damage. HOA repaired the roof and ceiling. 6 months later the same spot leaked again and ruined the ceiling a second time. Now the HOA is saying the interior is my responsibility and they’re only responsible for the exterior…but they fixed it the first time! What to do??

This reads like a Reddit legal advice post. YTA. But yeah generally they are correct. File a claim with your home owners insurance, that's why it exists. I'm a lawyer but not your lawyer.

Go through homeowners insurance. They are likely to tell you they do not cover poor workmanship quality, imroper repairs. Then it circles back to the HOA/handymen, which would be a negligence case. What state? If you have issues like this, everyones first reaction is to go through the HOA.

Also, what type of insurance? ho3 policy or condo insurance? If latter, HOA covers the roof through their insurance/themselves.

If you are in ny nj or fl, inbox me.

HOA’s. Yeeeesh.

I live in studio, high-rise building. This is my second highest electricity bill. I work from home (computer usually on all day, occasional TV & microwave use, living room & bathroom lights when needed).

If you live in an apartment/studio mainly - does your bill breakdown the same way with a base price, usage price & tax?

Recently accepted a temp role as an HR admin for a former employer. Previously interned there & left because my supervisor did not have any growth opportunities planned out for me; this was in spite of my stellar performance, as reflected in my 90 day review. She has since left the company, but there’s crazy turnover in the company & in the HR department in particular. Just that an HR coordinator resigned. Is it worth going back into a dumpster fire w/ no leadership to gain experience?
