See, when you rent, and shit happens (literally in some cases), then you have to deal with at least some small level of bureaucracy to get something done. You have to talk to the landlord or property manager or whatever before anything can happen, and nine times out of ten they claim they will handle it, when what this really means is they're sending the ACME version of a plumber over to not-really-fix the problem. I would really much rather deal with it myself. Seriously. Then at least it will both get done, and get done correctly. I gotta admit, this is one of the reasons I actually want my own house.
