So, those are either some of the best tenants.....or you have just been poisoned! --50.45.xxx.xxx

Haha JB, that would be the first thing that would go through my mind. --50.107.xxx.xxx

That's very nice! So they have discovered what that room is with those big metal things? A place to cook! No drive thru!? --99.203.xx.xx

You apparently did a very good job screening applicants. Congratulations! I hope they are good tenants for you for a long time. --68.10.xxx.xxx

That's really nice! --50.82.xxx.xx

It is now Saturday,Livethedream please respond so we know you weren't poisoned --72.231.xxx.xxx

Ken, she's probably vomiting violently into one of her many pre-dug holes in the desert. --50.107.xxx.xxx

Reminds me of the time one of the clerks put roach legs into my cottage cheese in the department fridge when I worked corporate. Or the time another one put her husband's heart medication into my coffee. Made me real dizzy on the way home. Yeah, she wanted to have an Avon party in the office next day and wanted me not to be there to prevent that. I was there and they didn't get their against the rules party. Never leave your coffee out at work. How did I find out? They talk loud and think white folks can't hear. --69.141.xxx.xxx

I have a tenant cooking story: Divorcing tenant is somewhat despondent at having lost his marriage. On a weeknight that he has the kids, he, on auto-pilot, attempts to make dinner. He forgets he's cooking and a grease fire erupts. He grabs the pan and runs for the back door, over brand new linoleum. When he hits the door, the pan is so hot that he drops it onto the linoleum floor, burning a hole in it. He calms down a bit, then attempts to make dinner on the barbeque grill outside his unit. Makes dinner, then takes the hot coals and throws them into the FULL large dumpster behind a 4-plex that is part of the complex. Of course, it starts a huge fire. Another tenant phones from the second story saying that flames are coming past her window! I tell her to phone the fire department. When they come, they see the dumpster is immediately next to the buildings' gas line. So, they put out the fire, then bring in a crew to jack-hammer the asphalt and put in concrete pylons. The jack-hammer action shakes up the old gas lines causing a gas leak. Did I mention that this is in January? So, the gas company comes out, smells gas and red-tags the entire 8 units. No heat for ANY of the units until the problem is fixed. Yes...it was a very cold week in Colorado. No, insurance did not cover the $10,000 cost of the repair. The only dammages I could claim from the tenant was the hole in the linoleum floor. I'm now a big fan of the raw food diet...Haha! Glad your dinner went well. Count your blessings! --69.130.xxx.xxx

RockyMtnLL of CO, Wow what a nightmare! I wonder IF the tenant had renters insurance IF your insurance company could have subrogated tenants insurance because it was caused by stupidity of tenant. --99.56.xx.xx

LTD thanks for sharing the good stuff! --172.56.xx.x

LOL - Yes folks we survived the night. And yes my tenant is a very nice older lady who's been with us 5 or 6 years. We actually share the same housekeeper. LOL --47.216.xx.xxx

15 years ago when we bought our first building - a 4 unit - tenants woke us up in the middle of the night because somebody through a car battery through their big kitchen window. Very scary for them. We secured it that night and had it fixed the next day. They insisted they take us out to Applebees. Some of our best tenants ever. --76.92.xx.xx
