any ways to get an apt manager to take things seriously?



     I have one that never wants to do nothing, he let my next door neighbor stay here for 9 months when she was doing meth, my other neighbor below me keeps bringing her grandkids,toddlers every wknd when the manager is gone cause she knows shes not supposed to, i love kids but i dont want to hear stomping around every wknd, especially when i cant get away to go to the library or wherever, shes breaking the lease cause theyre only supposed to stay 7 nights a yr, i think the manager might be leaving end of this month, wonder why. any suggestions? ive left him notes about all this

    Pearl, I think you need to stop caring so much about what other people do.  You don't have to accept abuse from anyone so if your neighbor's doing something to specifically harm you then that's when you need to stand up for yourself but your neighbor doing meth isn't anything personal against you and your other neighbor having her grandkids over isn't anything personal against you either so all you're doing is annoying your manager by leaving him notes.  He probably only sees arguing tenants that never shut up so I don't think he's ever going to take it seriously.

    The way you're describing this just makes you look like the cranky lady down the hall to them.  Don't be her.

         These little things all build up
    and are driving you crazy...Right?
    None of it should make any difference in your life.
    All outside of your space within yourself
    where your peace is.
         There is peace within you.
    there is happiness too. Just let go of reacting
    to all of that stuff. Be aware of it
    but don't be attached to it....just let it be.
    Not your concern. Your concern is to be at peace
    within yourself and being happy in your heart. 
         Let the world do what it does.
    You just be at peace
    and happy in your heart
    then that other stuff will do what it does
    but you won't even tune into it.

    (You helped me with your answer )

    And your answer also made me think of the spirit of Carly Simon's song "The Stuff That Dreams Are Made Of"
    :)



    Take a look around now
    Change the direction
    Adjust the tuning
    Try a new translation
    Don't look at your man in the same old way
    Take a new picture

    Just because you don't see shooting stars
    Doesn't mean it isn't perfect
    Can't you see...

    It's the stuff that dreams are made of
    It's the slow and steady fire
    It's the stuff that dreams are made of
    It's your heart and soul's desire
    It's the stuff that dreams are made of

    So what's this about your best friend?
    She's got a brand new shiny boy
    And they're moving out to Malibu
    To play with all his pretty toys
    And you feel closed in by the same four walls
    The same old conversation
    With the same old guy you've know for years
    But use your imagination
    And you will see....

    It's the stuff that dreams are made of
    It's the slow and steady fire
    It's the stuff that dreams are made of
    It's your heart and soul's desire
    It's the stuff that dreams are made of

    What if the Prince on the horse in your fairytale
    Is right here in disguise
    And what if the stars you've been reaching so high for
    Are shining in his eyes

    Don't look at yourself in the same old way
    Take another picture
    Shoot the stars off in your own backyard
    Don't look any further

    And you will see
    It's the stuff that dreams are made of....

    You've been complaining since long before the virus.

    Your apartment manager is there to take care of the building, not to make sure that nothing and nobody disturbs Pearl. Your tattling is probably a bigger pain to him than all those other people are to you.
