My apartment floors feel sticky even with AC on 😪 How do you all deal with it? Is it worth getting a dehumidifier? First summer in NYC.

How often do you vacuum/mop your floors? Do you wear outside shoes in the house? Dehumidifier can be helpful especially in the bathroom

Do you have a window A/C? If so, make sure you have the right sized one for your rooms. A too small A/C won’t be as effective at dehumidifying the room as a properly sized one.

It’s near the window but not in it, if that makes sense!

Anyone else seeing a huge failure at the administrative/leadership level at their respective hospitals? And/or a general “slacking off” of Covid precautions, even as cases are spiking again? My hospital is not testing surgical patients before their procedures which seems absurd to me because I think every single patient who is coming in for an elective surgery should be tested!

A parent of one of my students told admin she thinks it's irresponsible that I won't be grading over Christmas break. I let the students know to get any work they need graded in before the break and I'll get it to it during our workdays in January. Apparently that's not fast enough for her 🙄. Is it wrong that I'm sort of pissed off by this? Should I say something?

Had a incident when my manager accidentally sent a message to me, talking crap about me for taking time off around the holidays, during a busy time (I’m a remote worker with 2 kids under 2). This message was intended for her boss. What should i even do about this? The culture is very unprofessional and I’m thinking about sending my laptop/equipment to the lobby first thing come Monday. Any advice would be great!

Landlords: how do you address unreasonable maintenance requests? I’ve literally had a tenant ask us to kill a spider in her unit. 😂 Another said we should clean the appliances during the lease… because they don’t belong to her. (And yes, none of these services are promised in the lease.)

My usual reaction is some nice variant of “read your lease,” but does ANYONE actually read the lease these days?

My lease ends at the end of September. And of course my rent went up … $200 more a month.

Pays to be a good tenant. There is hope!
