There's water dripping from my kitchen ceiling. I suspect my upstairs neighbors' dishwasher. I've currently got a roasting pan balanced on two bowls to catch the drips.
Yes, I've called Maintenance. (That's the big advantage of living in an overpriced apartment complex: when you have an emergency, they *do* respond.)
ETA: Maintenance just stopped by to say that it looks like the upstairs neighbors put regular dish soap in their dishwasher: there's suds everywhere. I'm to call again if this is still happening in an hour (he's shut off the dishwasher) and again on Monday to have my ceiling patched.
I think the dripping may be slowing down: whew!
ETA: It stopped for 45 minutes, then started again, and now is stopping again. I hear a lot of activity upstairs: sounds like the residents got home, turned on the dishwasher, and discovered what was happening.
