Things that annoy me about this residence
I love Saint Paul University for all sorts of reasons; great people, wonderful atmosphere etc. Unfortunately my residence is not run by the university and things are run significantly more poorly here. The front desk staff are great, the RAs do all they can with what they've got to work with and everyone I've dealt with so far seems to be a generally good person; it's just that whichever muppet was in charge of building this place was an idiot. I'm slightly bitter because of...
-Being woken up on a weekend and told to pack up everything I have so that they can paint my ceiling.
-Finding a notice on my door telling me to pack up everything I have so that they can paint my ceiling again (sometime during the weekend; I'm supposed to just sort of leave everything under cover for three days).
-Not having an actual mailbox and having to guess when I'm getting mail so I can know to ask at the front desk.
-Having to twice replace my keycard because it was completely useless and having it reprogrammed dozens of times for being partially useless.
-Hyper-sensitive smoke detectors
-Being lied to about there being a "cinema style theatre" here
-Being lied to about various activities which we have supposedly had in years past.
-An internet connection which works occasionally and poorly when it does work.
-Having a room that smelled like caulking for the first two months
-People have been stuck in the elevators eight times since I got here in september
-The innumerable times that I've had construction guys come into my room
-Social events which have been severe let downs.
-Initially not being able to do laundry here, being forced instead to go into the basement of the seminary. Now that we do have machines they're jacking the price up to 1.50 per wash or dry ($3.00 per load).
-Not having any sort of stove or oven to cook with at first
-Have to go down the hall and take an elevator just to get to a stove now that they're here
-Being lied to about there being vending machines here
-The pool table is coin-op
Bloody building....
Cheers,
