I fucking hate landlords and I do my best to keep them from fucking over tenants with shitty appliances by doing whatever I can to get them to buy something slightly better. I even fib sometimes and tell them that whatever we have that’s cheapest is backordered or somehow not available in the timeframe they need in order to cajole them into buying something just slightly better. I know it’s a little dishonest, but it outweighs their fuckery my miles.
