It’s going to be a hell of a day; number one it is time for my brides hospital trip for another round of pain management meds. And two, waiting to see if our new property manager actually got my money order for this months rent. It was a little surprising to get a call out of the blue accusing me of not paying my rent, and what I was going to do about it. Even thought sitting on my desk were the receipts for the US Postal Money Orders I sent, including the price of a stamped envelope.
It brought back all the trauma my family and I experienced not 6 months earlier. Rent payers in good standing but this time instead of being kicked to the curve without proper notice. Being accusing of not paying our rent with only vague note with the wrong amount due on it stuffed in our door. Plus when I called the given number listed, I never received a reply till the above call demanding payment. So maybe I should say a hell of a way to start the last two days…traumatized.
But I’m doing my best to put the incident out of my mind since I have proof the payment was made. And I paid US Postal Service to run a trace on the money order to see if it has been cashed. But that will take three to five days. So the way she was talking, I assume I’ll be in the street till we find out. I can only assume none of these property managers have read Georgia State Law when I came to Rental Contacts (which I have).
Considering my current health condition and the mental and physical condition of my wife and son, one would think those things would be taken into consideration. But without any prior contact, it is interesting how assumption and labelling takes over. It’s the same with the rest of the world, where someone is automatically considered to be adversarial without even hearing their side of the story. Funny how we often place ourselves on the moral high ground when often times it is us that are the most ignorant. If we lived in a world built on compassion and not greed, imagine the billions of lives that wouldn’t have been wasted.
