So either I have a ghost

Or someone keeps entering my apartment without my notice to move a pot off my stove and put it on/in my sink. Two days in a row. Without telling me why. I don't get it. And I am also quite pissed now b/c seriously, I could have been in the shower and some random person could have been waltzing into my apartment. I've always left pots on my stove so ( Read more... )

That's super creepy. I'd add an extra lock to the door. I know that apartments get pissy about that, but they've done so much shit to you. Good luck.

It is very creepy and that's why I am freaking out. They're supposed to do as much as they can to let us know they are entering our apartments.

We're not allowed to add another lock. Sucks so much.

Well, they're not allowed to enter your apartment without telling you. If they can break the rules, why can't you?

Um, maybe talk to the police? *hugs* Good luck.

At least at night, put a chair under the door knob or something.

I have a big old set of windchimes on the doorknob and a chain across my back door anyway, so there is no way somone is getting in that way. esp. since there is also a tapestry shoved under the crack. I'd hear someone come in the front door, as it's a studio and thereore right next to my bed, but if someone has the master key...yeah. All the windows are locked tight and I'm just keeping the pepper spray and cell phone near me tonight.

I don't know what creeps me out more though. Ghost or random maint. people in my apartment. It's sort of neck and neck. It is an old building.

We'll see tomorrow when my landlord e-mails me back. For now I have pepper spray, really heavy shoes, and books to throw at anyone who tries to come in the front door. There is no way for someone to get in the back without me knowing.

Baby powder on the ground Paranormal Activity style too? (like I would ever watch it @.@ Wiki baby!) Heavy books behind he door?
Err, yeah, that need to be sorted out ASAP!

Yes, I did hear about Tennant - here's to hoping ^_^ I hope they don't make him fake an accent like Hugh Laurie/dude from Rome/chick from Bionic Woman/ etc. though...

It was a maint. crew, as I pretty much expected. I got a "Oh yeah, we had the wrong apartment, two days in a row. I was going to call you tonight to explain." Yeah, sure, and I got some swampland in FLA to sell to you buddy.

I'm pretty sure they will make him have an American accent, but I'm pretty sure I've never seen him act with his true Scottish accent. But, we shall see.

Install a webcam and point that one at the stoove, or a nanny cam. I can imagine how you might not feel that safe in your own home *growls* Oh and I second the talk to the police thing.

As I suspected it was maint work being done without my notice. I got a bs explanation for it. They were given the wrong apartment number...two days in a row.
