Hire a new super

The only benefits of living in this building are the great water pressure and the fact that the D train is across the avenue (1 min walk).

The list is too long, but when you watch shows on TLC like “Nightmare Landlords, ” this is what you get:

- Biggest issue: the super actually sits on the steps every day smoking and drinking instead of addressing lack of heat, ceiling cave ins (this happened to me and I was left with a caved in ceiling for 5 days), litter in the building, and more.
- Huge roaches (water bug kind) that took over 9 months for the landlord and super to address. They did not believe me when I said there was a hole in the floor of my kitchen where they were coming out. Only until they sealed the hole did the roaches stop
- Asking for humane treatment and some heat during 10 degree weather is too much for the landlord.
- Remember how I mentioned that part of my ceiling caved in? Part of the excuse that they used was that it was during a holiday and they could not work. I’m fairly certain this is illegal, where a landlord imposes their religious limitation in regards to property safety and tenant livelihood.
- The building is never clean. I doubt COVID has even made the super bat an eye to sanitizing the front door or cleaning at least once a week. We are lucky if the super mops once a month. There is food wrappers and toys constantly on the stairs and hallway.
- If the super and landlord were not enough, some tenants don’t respect each other. There is loud music playing in the early mornings of the weekend, constant screams of children, and unruly dogs. Sound cancelling headphones are a must.

Try being more of a human and stop imposing your religion on people who need to live. Fix things as they happen before they snowball into worse issues! Fire your current super, he does less than the bare minimum and publicly drinks and smokes on the job--incredibly unprofessional. Keep the building clean: if management can show even a remote interest in keeping the property tidy, tenants will follow suit. This is basic psychology.
