Part 3 of Moving Saga:

THEN, we were almost finished when my landlord started
looking REALLY REALLY closely at the floor. Dieter
said he heard my landlord tell the real estate agent
that he didn't like the floor. We don't know if it
was b/c it wasn't mopped yet, or he didn't like the
floor. Anyway, he found some white streaks in the
wood and some divets and was making noises about
them...the streaks were (IMO) part of the wood and not
dirt. He tried to say the divets were b/c of the dog,
but dogs make scratches, not divets. Then he made a
joke about me rollerblading around the house. THEN,
he noticed that corner of one of the tiles was
cracked. Something really really small. Insisted
this was unacceptable....a 2qm area (the crack and
most of the divets) will need to be taken out and
replaced. This requires the ENTIRE floor to be taken
apart, put back down and resanded & waxed. We (me and
the real estate agent amazingly enough) tried to say
that maybe the next ppl will be okay with it and
ANYWAY, they have a HUGE dog that is probably going to
make scratches on the floor, but he said NO, he wants
it completely repaired as if new. He estimates this
will cost 500Euro. Argh.

So anyway, we got into Frankfurt around 10:30pm, woke
up at 5:30am, and started unloading the truck around
6:30am with one of his friends. They vow that when I
move again in two months, my new apartment MUST have a lift or I hire movers. We went up and down the stairs
10-15 each. Ouch. Posted by Jinglelady at November 1, 2002 11:15 AM | Previous Blog | TrackBack
