Rent day has come and gone. Here
are some of the real-life responses
tenants gave to their landlords to
explain why they didn’t pay the rent
on time:
Q“I didn’t pay the rent because I’m
savinguptomove.”
Q“Oh, come on. You’re gonna harass
me on Valentine’s Day?”
Q“My last landlord had no problem
with me paying late. This seems
to be a real big issue with you.”
Q“I’m getting real tired of paying
this rent every month. You’ll just
have to wait.” Source: the US Landlord

BASIC TRAINING
When I was in the
Marines,my drill
instructor put the
whole ‘no such
thing as a stupid
question’ thing
perfectly. He
told us, “There’s
no such thing
as a stupid
question, but
some questions
come with
push-ups.”
