So I'm in the middle of this weird thing that could get awkward and a hate the drama llama and would love if it didn't. I'm the temp apartment manager at this complex. The old manager was fired 30 days ago and I moved in and took over. The day he was fired he was told he had 30 days to leave, the incentive being a $$ check if he's out by TODAY. He has four kids, is on welfare, is poor and PRETENDING (I think for the sake of the kids that everything is under control) that everything is fine. But money has gone missing in apartments, we had to switch all the locks to insure he didn't make a secret copy of the master key after people reported odd petty theft, he's been saying weird things to me like "Be sure to put in a good word for me that I'm fixing the place up so I'll get my deposit back." Managers don't leave deposits when they're fired?

Bleh. Anyway, he has to get out today peacefully and with a check. Or starting at midnight he will be served with a 3 day eviction notice which is messy and sad and drama. But he's not packing! I never see them leave the apartment! I think he's in a daze pretending its not happening. I'm supposed to go to this Beatles play tonight and stressing over whether I should stay, though the owner says "Don't worry! Have fun!" He's been through so many evictions this shit doesn't even phase him. I get all wrapped up in it and worried.
Now that I think of it maybe by deposit back he meant that money incentive to leave by today. I thought he was trying to bullshit me. That makes me feel better. Whatever the case he better start packing FAST. The day is running out.
