maintenance

I called maintenance yesterday to have them come and look at my stove. When I turn on my oven the kitchen smells like gas, sometimes I can smell it in other rooms. So this morning a guy came out to look at it. I turned it on, and left the room ( I had just poured a bowl of cereal, so had to eat it before it got soggy). A couple minutes later, he told me to come in and sign the work form. When I walked into the kitchen I smelled the gas right away. so I was relieved that he would know what I was talking about. Unfortunatley the next words out of his mouth were "you dont smell anything right?" I was dumbfounded! Of course I smelled it!! What the heck was he thinking? Well of course I get the guy that I dont think can smell anything!! His nose is stuffed up. Good grief. So he calls the office to see if they can bring someone else to smell, well they inform him that they have a tool to check for gas. so he went back to the office and picked it up and came back. This was a small gadget, that looked like something you could pick up at the dollar store. After he checks around it shows there wasnt gas, but honestly it still smelled of gas. He couldnt tell me what it was though, then he says "well if you have any other problems please call again". Wait a minute, you're not done!!! I told him that I am not going to have this smell in the kitchen even if that cheap little thing says its not gas, I dont know what it is and I dont know if it is dangerous. So grudgingly he calls his office and has his supervisor come to look, he decides it is from the breeze coming in, and I say no that cant be it because I dont have the door open all the time. So he decides it is the propane burning off. I wanted to know when they were going to fix it. Of course the answer is "I dont know" they have to get approval from the community center to see if they can replace it. So until then who knows what chemicals we are being exposed to. I love renting.
