Going on Two Weeks With No Internet, But Our Triceps Are Happy

Good news and bad news today.  Mostly bad news.  But first the good – the missing gym equipment has been replaced!  The rope pull and various attachments are back, and a square on our management promises scorecard flips from red to green.  Let’s take turns and not fight over them though.

Bad news is that the building internet is still out after the “upgrade.”  Residents who like to work from the Library or Living Room should think about upping their cell data plans, as we have a feeling this outage isn’t going to get fixed for a long time.  Even though the gym TV now displays more channels, this item remains soundly in the red due to the loss of Internet that worked fine before.

Running down the (mostly broken) promises list shows little progress from Absentee Jane.  In fact, the more cynical among us would speculate that Toll Brothers is only fixing the cheap items while big ticket items continue to deteriorate.

Window cleaning – not done, still filthy.  Absentee Jane: “large expense

Resident events – nothing since May, only one this year.  Absentee Jane: I’m sooooo busy.

Heavier weights in the fitness center – nope, just the lighter ones management picked up on clearance from Sears.  Absentee Jane: “I hope to have that added shortly“.  In June.

Pool passes – is this even still a thing?  The lifeguard just has a notebook and the pool is filled with “guests”.  And poop.

Replace broken outdoor TV – of course not!  Absentee Jane isn’t made of money, you know.

Fix the elevators – the past two weeks have been a good run, but only a fool would think they are fixed.

Hire a building manager – 5 months and counting.  Stay tuned for a longer post on this topic tomorrow.
