An Obnoxious Move In

Finally, the time has come for Nicole and I to start our summer semester at the Y. We couldn't move in to King Henry Apartments until the Monday that classes started, so we were on a tight schedule. Earlier in the summer, the Manager asked us if we would mind switching rooms so a girl could continue rooming with her sister. I asked her if there would be any differences in price, size, flooring, quality, etc. The Manager said everything, I repeat "everything" was the same except this was a four person apartment instead of six, so of course it would be a little smaller. We get here to move in, and these goons don't even have us in the same room. We walk into the apartment, and for a moment all hope in the world dies. There was stains all in the carpet and countertops, the kitchen looks like no one has cleaned it in years with a floor that I can already tell will never stay clean. We walk back to the rooms, and find one with an open bed. We knock on the other door and find that the third girl who was supposed to have moved out the previous Friday, had just woken up, and had not moved any of her stuff out yet. At this point, I am livid to say the least. The apartment is nothing like the apartment that we toured, when supposedly everything was the same except for size. We also couldn't move in until the third girl moved out, and one of the other girls moved their stuff into the other room so Nicole and I could be in the same room. We go back to the office, where some choice words were said. I might have had to go outside for a minute to cool off so Nicole wouldn't have to hold me back from this Manager that so nonchalantly threw us under the bus where we were run over repeatedly. I am thoroughly convinced she is the spawn of Satan. In the end, we got them to send a cleaning crew to the apartment, and another employee gave us an Olive Gardens Gift Certificate to treat ourselves after this rough morning. We ended up moving in, that afternoon after work and classes. All in all we have decided we will make the best of what has started as an incredibly ratchet situation. Let the summer adventures begin!
