I’m not complaining about the increase itself, just the fact I wasn’t notified within the contractural time frame. Also though, annual increases based on CPI is not in my lease agreement. Lol.

My lease states that I am to receive a 60 day notice about rent increases period. I’ve been month to month for 3 years now. Last year they notified me, this year they did not.

I didn’t get anything in the mail. I’ll ask them to provide me with proof that they mailed it

Yeah good idea. I was given a hard copy of a notice last time that I actually had to fill out and return with some information on. So I’m pretty shocked I didn’t get anything this time. I was thinking oh, that’s nice no rent increase this year! Not 🙁

Good advice thank you

Yes month to month. Thanks for the info

I was just curious about other people’s experience with this situation and what the office has done about things like this

To be clear, I think this article is bs. Since when is public transit not a public good???

So now the vibe is… sorry there’s only 3 seats that are constantly taken, thanks for giving us business but go sit somewhere else?

Clearly people don’t know that the innovation of Starbucks is the creation of the experience of sitting and staying in a coffee shop. I’m not talking about their current controversies. Do your homework.

I thought that was the whole point behind cafes. It’s part of the vibe/experience being able to sit and chill there

I don’t know where you’ve been exactly, but I find a lot of places did away with a good amount of seating they had when Covid hit. And I’m not really sure why they didn’t bring it back since the industry is hurting, but that could have something to do with it

That’s just a senator, best to leave him be

I have multiple family members who are younger Gen Z lol idk how you even have the authority to be making claims like this. Like how would you even know. You sound like a grumpy old fart

I’m an elder Gen Z I guess; born at the end of 96. The ones born after 2006 are all of a different breed. It’s the rapid pace of technological advancement every decade imo. These dumb rectangles we’ve had since 2007 made a dent. I barely escaped college without having to deal with Covid having graduated in 2019, and that’s definitely had an impact as well.

Were you able to confirm what the noise was? I can’t find anything on Nextdoor either

Put vodka in your milk like Roger Sterling

Is your family from DC or living in the area? Like how would they know the realities if they’re just regurgitating sensational news stories?

These must be the same dudes who go bald by 27

Men don’t even know how to put their socks in the laundry hamper or know that hanging sports memorabilia or flags on their walls are not consider interior design. You’re telling me they have the eye to spot the minor details of aging 5 years in your 20s? And that such minor details is enough to write a woman off? Give me a break.

It’s only a 5 year difference in which your appearance changes little, I don’t understand this

Lot of great suggestions here. I'll throw one in that has seemed to work for me between ages 17-now 26 years old. ALWAYS have resting bitch face or looked pissed off. I cannot say this is the single variable that has helped deter creeps from talking to me, but I have yet to be approached because I always try to come off as unapproachable as possible. Not many men like a shrew, unless you're Heath Ledger from 10 Things I Hate About You. I also emphasize saving Metro PD's number 696-873, so she can text for help.

It isn’t here though..
