This is from a Forum that I check out now and then....Man I thought we were messy in college....
This has nothing to do with the Hurricane. We had a resident who had an outstanding balance for over a month and no one could get ahold of her. The Bookkeeper went inside after so many tries to leave a note and this is what we found.
The pictures do NO justice. There is suppose to be 2 cats living here but we cant find them (we think they’re dead somewhere inside the apartment-we contacted the SPCA). The place REEKS to say the least, i gagged non stop.

Why I dont shop at Wal Mart
Howdy All,
Been a while since I posted, been meaning to log in and make a post, just been busy, hurricane and all!
Well, most of you know that I dont like Wal Mart, for many reasons, Most of the stuff there is made in China, the employees just need a pulse to work there, and they squeeze out the local small businessman/woman.
Well, last night I needed some supplies, I was tired, and Super WalMart is closer than the HEB that I usually go to, so I made a quick run to get groceries and some cleaning supplies.
I go to the check out line, where the employee doesn't know ANY of the produce codes, and rings my lettuce up as cabbage, then my Celery as green onions.
When I make large purchases, I pay by check, so I can keep track of it easier than just swiping my Debit card. Back in 2005, when I became very aware of ID theft and cleaning my credit, I started printing my checks with my Initials and Last name, address, and nothing else. No License number, phone number etc, to make it harder for someone to steal my checks and go on a spree.
When she gives me my total, I hand her my check and license. At Wal Mart, when you write a check, they scan it, take your Routing number and account number and do an EFT as your payment and you get your check back. She looks at the check, looks at my license, then at me. "Your name does not match your license." I raise an eyebrow....huh?
"Your drivers license says XXX XXX, but the name on your check is Wells Fargo."
At this point, I'm looking around for Candid Camera's Peter Funt to come out and say "SURPRISE!" but nope. I point out to her my name is on the top of the check.
"Your name is XXX XXX, but your check only says "X. X. XXX".
By this time, the woman behind me is looking at me and looking at the cashier like shes crazy.
I calmly explain, "Those are my initials." She keeps studying the check.
"Your address is 17,600 Katy Freeway, Suite 100?"
Now, at This time I'm losing my cool.
"No, thats the Banks address." My address is below my name up here, and I show her my address, as well as the one on my drivers license. "See? They match."
At this point, she looks at me, like shes getting agitated.
Have you never seen a freakin check before lady? She finally scans my check, it goes through fine and she gives me my reciept.
Once again boys and girls, this is my annual trip to Wal-mart, until I get crazy and decide to go again.
