Remember Bad Apple, the elderly from the apartments who cussed Hick and complained about his (cleaned) carpet not being clean enough, took the carpet shampooer and detergent Hick offered to do it himself, then reported Hick to the Better Business Bureau?
Monday, Bad Apple asked Hick to come up to his apartment. Hick went.
Bad Apple apologized to Hick. Said he didn't know the group (Hick's employer/boss) was a nonprofit organization. He was just mad because Hick wouldn't give him the phone number of who else to complain to.
Hick said, "Nobody wants to talk to you! That's why they hired me. I do that for them."
Bad Apple said, "I just want you to know that I'm sorry. I don't want to move."
Well! I think we have discovered the reason behind his change of heart! The possibility of eviction. And maybe the fact (?) that the BBB doesn't have any authority over nonprofits. I'm not sure of their parameters. But it sounds like that complaint was going nowhere.
Anyhoo... Bad Apple repeated that he was sorry. And asked if maybe Hick could fix his door.
Hick said he would. It needed a drill to put in a new hole so the screw would be flush with the plate thingy the latch goes into. [My words, not Hick's.]
I told Hick, "Well. That's over with. Until he finds something else to complain about."
Hick agreed.
