How is this right???

Well... something that has happened to me pretty much yesterday has led me to writing a blog post.  I don't know how some people can sleep at night knowing what they do to other people without even a second thought.

So... before I left for this deployment I was looking for a new place to live.  I didn't know for sure if I was going or not, and my lease in my apartment was running out.  Also, with my wife moving out to Idaho we would now have 4 cats instead of just my 2.  It's really difficult to find anywhere that will take animals let alone FOUR! 

We had a place that was willing to work with us and our pets, which was awesome.  It was just the sort of place we were looking for, too.  The move-in date was going to be Nov. 1st if I didn't go on the deployment, and they said just to call back when it got closer to my time to coming back in order to get a new date set up. 

Now, all of a sudden, they WON'T let us have our 4 cats anymore, and they say it's because at the time their residency was low, and now it's not.  So this is an economical decision obviously.  Even though they have places available for rent they are not going to allow us to rent from them now after previously saying they would. 

This was our only real outlet in Boise... and it had everything we wanted in a community.  Now the only option is to rent a house???  Great!  No amenities... yardwork... I prefer to PAY for these things and enjoy them rather than either not have them or do them myself.  Am I being whiny?  Sure I am... I'm very upset.  I'm upset to the point that I've sent the complex manager an email practically begging for their help.  I'm about in tears here because right now when I get back to Idaho I'm HOMELESS.  I'm even considering getting rid of my own 2 cats so I can have living space of my choice because I certainly know Anne Marie would NEVER let her babies go. 

I am really feeling helpless right now being all the way over here... even if I will be home in 5 weeks.  I'm going to have to spend the time I'm supposed to be relaxing and recouperating looking for a place to live now!!!  I know Anne Marie will help the few days she will be visiting before she returns back to New York and to work.  It doesn't change the facts of the story, though. 

There is no loyalty in ANY business regardless of what it is.  It's just the American way in our day, and it's getting even worse.  They had no problem with renting to us 5 months ago, but since the economy has picked up a little they kick us to the curb.  If my plea is not answered with a positive result I plan on putting their name and their property management company's name on every apartment site I can find with a horrible review not to mention tagging them with several search tags tied to a very negative blog post in regard to them. 

After all, if they can do that to me... I can certainly return the favor...

Peace, Love, and Poker
