The guy I rent a room from has an app on his garage door that alerts him every time it opens so now I have to answer for it every time I fucking do anything in the garage (which is the quickest way for me to go in and out of the house). It's so annoying. I got home 15 minutes early the other day and had a text from him 5 minutes later asking if I got home early. Like... Yea, fuck off dude. I'm about to start going in and out via my window.
Yeah, same lady that freaked because the water heater kicked on at night also had that on her garage. She was absolutely monitoring coming and going by it.
I sometimes contemplate how easy it is for people to be stalker freaks and despair.
Doesn't make a difference. I still get the text/phone call. If I let it ring he'll come ask me about it when he gets home. I think he just gets a rush from it because he's got nothing interesting going on in his life and it makes him feel like he's on top of something for once.
He's not doing it to harass me. I come and go as I please and they don't complain. It's literally just because of that stupid notification he gets on his phone and he fixates on it for some stupid old man reason. It's just an annoyance I have to deal with so I'm venting on here. The rent situation is really cheap so I don't want to rock the boat too much by complaining to them about shit they do that bothers me.
It doesn't matter what he intends; what matters is the actual effect it has on you.
To an extent yea. But the benefits of renting from him far outweigh this one annoyance. I would be paying 500+ more every month for anyplace else I looked at. I just need to deal with it until I can save enough for a down payment on a house of my own.
Start throwing around phrases like "quiet enjoyment."
He’s not as advanced as he thinks he is. I have the same setup for my garage but I also have a camera in the garage that shows who is in the garage.
I'm not going to give him any more ideas.
Why are you entering/leaving the house through the garage? That seems odd to me.
The door in from the garage is closer to my room than the front door? Also I can avoid the kitchen/living area and not have a 10 minute conversation I don't want to have if the people I rent from are home.
