Today, I had just gotten home after being away for 8 months. My key didn’t work on my lock and while I was messing the door a man with a child opened. My landlord gave someone my apartment while I was away. FML

Today, my boss made me some tortellini for lunch. As I was happily eating it, he started to give me a massage, while talking to his friends in Greek. He told me that he said "She's my #1 cashier." Turns out, what he really said was "See, if you feed them well, they let you touch them." FML

If you were still paying rent, this probably violates your tenant's agreement. Especially if s/he knew you were leaving. And what happened to your stuff? And where were you for eight months?

Where is your stuff? Where you still paying rent? Did you tell the landlord/leasing office of your extended leave? Why did they rent the place out, that was their side of the story. Start getting a lawyer involved, ASAP.

NEI That’s the opposite of TMI. Did you give your landlord a heads-up you were returning? He could have told you what’s going on with the apartment.

Wait what? Your stuff? The rent? Were they aware you were going and returning? Are they sub letting it until your return? Lawyer up if you’re not at fault.
