A local woman has been left feeling a bit perplexed today, after discovering that the new friend she made at the gym is a lot richer than she initially thought.
As someone who’s still living in a sharehouse at the age of 27, due to the exorbitant prices for a studio apartment within an hour to her work, Lena Haynes, has made the mortal mistake of believing every other single person her age is doing just as shit as she is, leaving her feeling both shocked and a little bit disgusted.
Speaking to The Advocate, Lena says she was going for a hot girl walk with her new mate Steph when she found out she was a landlord – and a pretty shit one by the sounds of it.
“We were walking around Queen park and she started complaining about her tenant!?”, says Lena, with an incredulous look on her face, “I was like, wait what? What do you mean by tenant?”
“And she says that she rents out a four bedroom house to a single mum in the French Quarter, and that she’s fucking fed up with all the maintenance work she has to do.”
“I’m still processing the fact that I’m mates with a secret landlord, which is a lot, but then she’s complaining about having to sort out pretty standard household problems. Like ‘oh the dishwasher is broken and needs to be replaced and I don’t want to pay for it. I bet the stupid kids put in plates covered in food and that’s why it’s fucked.”
“And then she’s like ‘eugh, the mum keeps asking about fixing the electrical wiring in the garage because the lights won’t work and she struggles to see anything because she’s blind in one eye and keeps falling down the stairs, and I don’t understand why she can’t just buy a torch.”
“Um, WHAT!?”
More to come.
