Step 1: Don't get evicted.
This is the most crucial step in surviving the landlord.
Pay your rent on time, every time. It's not that hard, trust us.
But seriously, it's really hard. Like, "you'll-lose-your-apartment-and-end-up-on-the-street" hard.
So, don't do that.
Don't play your music too loud. We know you love that sweet, sweet EDM, but the neighbors have feelings too.
Don't cook fish in your apartment. We know you love fish sticks, but they're not worth it.
Don't have a pet rock. We're not kidding, it's not a good idea.
Apologies are key in any relationship, including the one you have with your landlord.
So, practice your apology skills. It's like riding a bike, but with more regret.
Example: "Sorry, I didn't mean to trash your building, I was just trying to redecorate."
