The bad thing about living on campus in the summer is the lack of or slow upkeep of the facilities. The bathtub in our apartment has been clogged for the past week so much so that it takes hours for the bathwater to drain down after one has taken a shower. That is not such a problem, the problem is that the slow drain of the bath water leaves dirt and soap scum at the bottom of the tub and scrubbing the tub doesn't help because after rinsing the soap away, the water still doesn't drain away! My room mate has been telling the RA's about it but so far, no one has come to fix the drainage on the tub.
Two days ago, the cable TV got cut off and will only be fixed this coming Monday. I'm not a big fan of TV but my roommate is and she was hopping mad. Why would they need to take that long to fix the cable? What happened to efficiency? Today, I was running out of clean clothes so I decided that it was time to do my laundry. After sorting out my laundry and lugging the whole load downstairs, I was left to discover that all the washers and dryers in the laundry room was unplugged and their piping removed. I was furious!
Why? Well, there were no notices at all posted saying that the cable would be out or the laundry room would be out of service and sorry for the inconvenience that it might cause. I think the University owe us at least an apology or a notice for something like this. I mean, what about someone like me who doesn't have a car and I can't go to the laundromat? Do I still wear my sweat soaked clothes until the skin rots off my back?
