re: how crappy was your first apartment?

Mine was crappy, but not that bad. I just had sucky neighbors. Next door was an old couple that called the office every time I turned the TV on. Above me was a rent-a-cop security guard.

The dude woke me up at 7 on a Saturday morning griping about two beer cans left on the steps, that I wasn’t in compliance with some city code. I just shut the door on him and me and the roommate left a case of empties by his door the next night.
