My roommate and I have been typically cursed with lucky enough to have a landlord who is both impressively incompetent hands on and a condescending douche-bag willing to impress his land-lordy wisdom upon us.
How else could we have learned that laws (requiring notice and consent to come into our apartment) are just super annoying technicalities which nobody has ever bothered with?
Who else would have told us that construction that goes on for months and disrupts our sleep, ability to work/study, and overall enjoyment of our apartment is simply “inconvenient” and not completely disruptive?
Also, a bonus: He can tell the future! He has seen that we’re going to have construction done on our own homes in the future and regret asking our poor, besieged clueless and likely indifferent landlord for a time frame or for consideration into real life issues we’re having with the noise levels! We’re going to look back and reflect differently on the situation because … well, just because.
O, whatever did we do to deserve such a fucking annoying wise and learned land lord?

Claire and I have a creepy landlord. We asked him to fix a door knob months ago and a new one appeared weeks later—with no notice!
