6/27/07 - Tenant

Tenant came to the store today (16:40) to ask if RK was here (she wasn't) and when she'd be back next. I shrugged. Tenant wants to talk to her about taking his partner's name off the lease. Manager asked if Tenant was present at his store when RK was here this morning because she stopped at his store to look for him. Tenant said that he was not.

(Tenant had asked Manager yesterday afternoon to ask me when RK would be there next so he could discuss this issue with her.)

6/12/07 - Tenant via Manager

Manager enters store at 15:05 and informs me that Tenant had just told him that he (Tenant) had just checked his bank account. Check has apparently cleared.

6/11/07 - Tenant via Manager

Manager just came back from next door (about 5:40 p.m.) to buy me and Sister some Red Bulls. He was laughing and mentioned that upon entering next door, Tenant exclaimed, "I paid the rent!" Manager asked, "So is it going to bounce?" to which Tenant replied, "I hope it doesn't!"

(If Tenant doesn't know if there is sufficient money for the check to clear, that probably means that there is not.)

6/11/07 - Junior

Tenant's son (aka "Junior") JUST dropped off a bill (around 10:45 a.m.) that the mail carrier accidentally brought to him. Asked if the girl in the store with me is my sister (I said yes). Asked how my "mom" (RK) is doing and mentioned that she was in the store the other day (presumably when I'd asked her to go talk to his father about the rent). I'm wondering if Junior was referring to the rent at all, and I'm wondering if he knows that the check his father gave me was a bad one.

6/08/07 - Tenant

Around 7 p.m. after closing, I went next door to ask Tenant if he had this month's rent. I'd asked RK the previous day to politely remind him that rent was due this week.

He pulls out a pre-written check in an envelope from a drawer and hands the envelope to me. (Which is annoying because if he'd already written the check, why did he wait for ME to go to HIM? He should know to just give me the rent!) I look over the check and notice that the date written on the check is 7/08/07. I point this out to him, and he replies, "No... that is today's date." He insisted this about twice until I said, "Look... this says JULY." Finally he takes a pen and writes a bold "6" over the "7" and initials it with a K (the first initial of his nickname which a bank teller would obviously not know).

Sister deposited the check today in the morning (Saturday). The last two months, Tenant paid the rent completely in cash since the last few checks have bounced. Manager asked me today if I'd gotten the rent from him, and I tell him the story about the wrong date. Manager laughs and comments that DA probably did that purposely so that I would not be able to deposit the money and therefore he would have a few more days to come up with the cash.

(I believe this as well.)

Purpose of this blog

So the purpose of this blog is to have one place where I can have potentially useful information for the future in the case of my death or mental incapacitation (as the result of some mysterious "accident").

Since I started working at the business, I feel like there are a good amount of people who might not like me. And they seem sort of mentally instable. So this is just my log of stuff that has happened in case I need to refer to it in the future.

That's pretty much it!
