21. Rent and Revenge
Most recently. My landlord got mad that I was paying my rent manually. On-time but he felt i may one day forget. Threatened to kick me out unless I changed to automatic payment. So I do. Then he emails me just after Christmas. Where’s my rent? You always pay early on public holidays! Sir, you asked for auto payment. That means the bank process it late on public holidays. I paid early for public holidays when I was doing it manually as a courtesy to you.
He responds back he was very angry and breached me for paying him late. Next week is another holiday so the payment will be delayed. So he’s going to lose his sh*t. It’s a matter of principle to me now. You asked for automatic payment man.
It was literally his fault. If he tries to kick me out he’ll look like an idiot at the tenancy hearing.
