There tends to be a difference between a normal landlord and the landlords of low income complexes, at least I've seen this. Remember the TV show Good Times? Granted that was over the top but it did show the way it works. I think I'd rather live in a crate in the woods than live in low income subsidized housing ever again.
Not for nothing, Bubba, but let's keep in mind that low-income housing is subject to a host of local, state, and federal regulations that the on-site manager has to make sense out of. And a lot of those regs deal with restrictions---what residents cannot do.
So, yes, I agree with your basic feeling. I've been there, too. I'd rather live in a box under a bridge then go back to government subsidized low-income housing.
But it isn't always the manager's fault, either.

I watch Food Network every day even if just for an hour after work. I love Sandra Lee's recipes. I adore the cake competition probably because I am a former certified professional cake decorator. I appreciate the hard work that goes into it. I have traveled to and competed in some of the cake shows and I have met the folks that you see judge the cake shows. Charm City Cakes is 20 minutes from where I live, I have never been there to check it out in person because that is not one of my favorite shows.
If we all enjoyed the same shows, chefs, recipes, etc. TV life, as it is, would be boring. You have heard the old adage... "to each his own."
Chubbs, better stay away from those in-the-raw cook shows, they'll get you in trouble, kid. Most importantly, don't try it at home while using hot liquid.

Definitely to each his own I just wish they hadn't gotten rid of every show I liked and replaced them with shows that seem repetitive. I agree a lot of work goes into the cakes I just personally don't like to watch them.

MsMai I am so glad to read you also like them, my granddaughter and I get a kick out of watching them! One of the best laughs we ever had together was when a head fell off a lion of one of the chef's cakes during the judging! She and I laughed and giggled half to death, we went to bed laughing and woke up the next day laughing!!! We love Charm City Cakes! I wish I could go with you to visit it! I wonder if they are as nice in person?
Oh, also you know I still haven't found any of those shows Chubbs was talking about...Dang nab it!!!!!
I even had my popcorn all popped and was ready to settle in........aw well;)
