Jake! That was yet another awesome and informative post, good job.
Your going to be my favorite poster I think.
But Jake, those kind of tenants you spoke of in the beginning of your article, are known as Gypsies. No pun intended for the Gypsie Culture, and I’m not trying to be a racist.
On the streets where i come from, Gypsy comes in all shapes, colors, sizes, and religions.
It simply means, someone who moves around alot, mostly who can’t keep anykind of housing for too long for one reason or another. I personally know a whole lot of them.
Evictions are sometimes very sad and unnerving. You have to be a total crapper, to not feel something when you evict a family with babies. But, unfortunately, as Jake stated,”It’s me or them”, and he is right to think that way, regardless of how heart wrenching it is.
I live in a 2 flat brick with a garden apartment (which is the same as a basement apartment).
There was a young lady in her mid 30’s with three little girls ages 5,4, and 2, who were just evicted lastweek by the County Sherrif.
Good thing I showed up home when I did. I had to grab the babies, until Mom came back to get them. Otherwise the Sherrif would have been compelled to contact Child Protection Services.
Sadly, the Mom just got a Job with Target Retail that morning, but she was behind in her rent since last May, so there was no way she’d be able to catch up. But, then my Landlady took forever to enforce her authority. She didn’t file until September. She should have been on that months ago. Nonetheless, it was sad, but neccessary.
