I don’t know how you feel about roommate situations, although I feel… not undoubtedly good! I can’t say that I have had a unbelievable living situation with any other human before, then there’s always some drama that you don’t see coming before it’s too late when you’re cohabitating with irresponsible people, then and that seems ot be the norm in my world, at least.
These people seem like they’re responsible adults until we’re in the same house, sharing the same heating, cooling, and air quality control system… not to mention, the same utility bills.
This is when all the problems start! My good friend and I always have differing indoor air quality control preferences, from the air temperature all the way down to the humidity levels and the amount that we’re comfortable changing the thermostat each afternoon, but honestly, I’d rather that we could just agree on one set thermostat program and never touch the indoor air quality control device again. I want to establish an energy efficient, conservative indoor temperature control setting program and let the thermostat run the rest of the show. I want someone to take ownership of the indoor air filter changes and basic maintenance requests. I don’t want to be bothered with arguing about the biweekly utility bills or the upcoming Heating, Ventilation, and A/C maintenance services that we expect after beating the hell out of the heater and cooling system. I think these are pretty reasonable requests, but I’ve never found roommates who have the same Heating, Ventilation, and A/C beliefs that I do. Instead, we argument about the temperature and bills until the afternoon our lease runs out. Then we never speak again… Give me the straight forward heating and cooling, leave out the drama please.
