I believe the term is:

"****s given: Zero"

Unless your state is super landlord friendly or something, it is 100% your landlords responsibility to get this stuff taken care of within a reasonable time frame after being notified of the problem. Depending on your state and your lease you probably have a few options including breaking the lease or getting the repairs done yourself and deducting them from your rent.

If you are too lazy to read your own ****ing lease how do you expect us to help you??

Stop calling and start emailing imo. Much easier to document. You aren't going to get money back for going without it but being able to document the time you've been without it will give you grounds for other options such as breaking your lease if they continue to refuse to fix it.

so are you the guy that
a) washes dishes by hand
b) always uses paper plates
c) never eats at home

dishwasher seems like right hassle

washing dishes takes like 2 mins

A. I do dishes daily. It takes 5 mins.

Decided I am going to just pay rent this month. Next month will be a no brain decision if a functioning washer isn't in place.

Man, when I was 20 and at the peak of my laziness, I still didn't live like some of you. I may have flushed kitty litter down a toilet, but I'd never live without dishes, dishwasher, or a washer/dryer unit.

There's a big thunderstorm going through here right now and one of the news anchors is sitting at her computer compiling updates from people sending in information. Her background is literally just a tiled picture of her head shot.

You have never lived in a place that isn't dirt cheap.

Not quite sure I understand this. Is it because the same place where you live would cost 3X as much? Please explain.

I probably appreciate my dishwasher more than my tv after not having one for quite a few years. Hand-washing is awful.

Hand washing is completely disgusting, it's like you're a ****ing caveman or something.

haha, don't have any.

Well, I can't stand shopping, cooking, nor cleaning, and the stuff that other people make for me is going to be better than what I would make for myself. Like most things, to each his own, I'm perfectly happy with a permanently clean stove and a refrigerator full of non-perishables.

It seems that I haven't ever dated a woman that liked to cook either. Some were OK at it but most just did it occasionally, almost to prove to themselves that they could.

I do dishes daily too. Put them in a dishwasher and it does the work.

Also, having lots of dishes is nice when yanno, family and friends come over

i think every cabinet in my kitchen is full with all kinds of equipment, spices, flour/sugar, glasses/dishes, parts for kitchen stuff, etc

seems super +EV in life to have a stocked and equipped kitchen

In LOL bahstan a place for 1k/mo will have basically nothing but a room barely enough for a bed and if you are lucky a kitchen the size of a walk in closet, and a living room that fits a loveseat and tv against the wall. If you had a washer/dryer/ dishwasher you wouldnt have enough floor space to walk.

2k/mo gets you a dishwasher and 25-50% washer/dryer

3k/mo gets you all 3

So because morons live in an area where it's 3k/mo to get enough room for a washer and dryer the jokes on me somehow?

looooooool Boston. The original city of losers, you'll never escape it.

this is obviously wrong

apparently "are you surprised that apartments can come without dishwashers and washing machines" is like a test to see if you've spent your whole life in flyover country

I was just in the market, i exaggerated a little but its not that far off

Solid post

someones watched the mrchicity video

Washer/dryer depends where you live. I'm 30 and engaged, so in-unit is a must now 'cause I'm too old for that ****. In college, I didn't have it in unit and there's a laundromat with a bar near that apartment where it was a great place to meet girls on a Saturday afternoon without their stupid friends around.

Totally agree. Just moved into a new place and dishwasher was broken so we had to hand wash for the first week or two. It was pretty horrible and generally resulted in dirty dishes piling up and then having too many wet, "clean" dishes with not enough space on the drying rack. Landlord ordered a new dishwasher in a timely fashion like they are supposed to.

If a drying rack bothers you that much, they make towels nowadays which you can use to wipe down your clean dishes and not have to air dry them

Its pretty amazing to me how many people are unaware that plenty of places in big cities come without in unit laundry/dishwasher
