COVID-19 updates and discussion
in Health ·
I’d love to get some perspective on this. We have several units in our building that are rented out to students, and the landlords just gave notice to cancel those leases so they can go all-in on complete renovations. Look, I get it—everyone has to update their place eventually. But honestly, given how many people are working remotely right now and the fact that our kids are doing school from home, you don't need me to tell you how infuriating this is. Imagine trying to focus while a small army of contractors descends on the place, jackhammers are shaking the entire building, and there's a constant cloud of dust drifting through the hallways while everyone is stuck inside. My neighbors are losing their minds, and since the owners don't even live here, they couldn't care less about the chaos they're causing. I don't know if anyone else has ever actually tried to hop on a Zoom call from the middle of a construction zone, or if you'd rather just skip that particular horror show. Personally, I feel like there should be some kind of local ordinance or regulation passed to postpone non-essential construction work during times like this.
