We rent our apartment. It's one floor of a four floor building (including the basement). There are many things we like about it, and plenty that we don't like. I mention them occasionally, but mostly try to enjoy this phase of our life.
Recently, two of the four outlets in our kitchen stopped working. Given that the microwave is pretty constantly plugged in, and one of remaining working outlets only actually has one outlet, that brings me from six places to plug kitchen appliances in to two (plus one by the table, which seems to mostly work, though not always).
No problem, we talk to the apartment manager, a very proactive man who we like a lot, who talked to our landlord, who we really don't know, but seems nice. A month later, we were still waiting to hear something. We finally approached the topic with our manager again.
Our landlord says: since they were working when we moved in, they are our responsibility to fix.
Really?
