I Quit as a Building Manager
Here's a DOOZY of a story to share, and it happened to me, recently.
Monday Nov. 17:
DeVoe: Hi Christ this is DeVoe. I am sending unit 1 $800. If you can, you can help me pay him like $40 or $50, but I'm giving him a $100 right now.
Me: Hello. I wish I could, but I don't have any money myself. I'll see what I can do.
DeVoe: Ok I'm sending him a hundred dollars but let me know who you can do.
Me: I just sent my last $40
DeVoe: Happy over there Friday to give you $200. I will be over there Friday to give you $200.
Me: What time? Because I'll be at funeral from 10 am to 2 pm.
DeVoe: I will be over there Friday to give you $200, but we have to talk. I could come after 2. As a better manager, sometimes a building manager have to help out in step up. If the owner does not have anything, it's up to the building manager to step up. That's a part of your job. Sometimes you do have to keep money on you or in the bank so if you need to pay someone for doing a job. That is one pic to step up being a building manager. I hope you understand where I'm coming from. Hi, did you get my text?
Me: Hey. I just looked at it. I understand.
Wednesday Nov. 19:
DeVoe: Good afternoon in Christ, do you have any money on you today? If not, it's okay.
Me: Hey there. No I don't have any money right now.
DeVoe: Okay when you get something let help Kimble I sent him a hundred already u just can send him $40 or 50 thank you.
Me: I've just sent him $50.
DeVoe: If you only had that you did not have to send it.
Me: I've already sent it, so it's okay.
Devoe: Know it is not okay I feel bad for asking you. I won't ask you no more to help.
Me:It's alright, I'll be fine.
Devoe: I messed up on my text you are good.
Me: Oh, okay.
Devoe: You do not have to text nobody else.
Me: Okay.
Devoe: This DeVoe. I'm keeping record of all day This.
Me: Okay.
Devoe: My wife do not have nothing to do with this I am the owner now her.
Me: Yes sir. I understand.
Devoe: But I won't ask you to help out no more.
Me: I understand.

The wife wanted me to patch things up with her husband because I "disrespected" him. I told her I appreciate that, but declined. I already told them that resigned as a building manager. She told me that next month I'll be paying the full amount of rent. Then I thanked and blessed her and her husband.
