Another one from the last place I was at:
Right as I'm closing up, with J the maintenance guy waiting to turn on the alarm, a resident walks in and after figuring out that I was not the manager and exclaiming "Well that explains it!" (wait, what?) Tells me that at 9:00pm he was looking to turn in and his next door neighbor was blasting some thumping bass that was keeping him from sleeping, and when he knocked on her door to turn it down, she gave him all kinds of attitude saying things like "I don't have to turn it down until 10! I work and go to school and if I want to listen to music at 9 o'clock then I will!" Basically she was being a right little bitchy snot. Okay, I can empathize with that. The guy works hard, and gets up early and doesn't want to hear BOOM BOOM BOOM through his walls. Okay I get it. So far, not sucky, but here are the punchlines:
1. The guy was wearing 2 hearing aides, the old fashioned kind that I could see the volume control knobs on.
2. He stormed out without telling me his name or his apartment number so once he was out of earshot I looked at J, and said "Wow, poor guy had a rough night. BTW-who the hell was that?!"
