It’s common practice to pay a deposit when you rent a home. Unfortunately, dealing with a jerk landlord is also becoming the norm. While many tenants get their deposit back at the end of their rental period, about 10-20% never receive it.
This person had to deal with a similarly greedy landlord. When appliances needed fixing, he refused to chip in, claiming they weren’t his and that he wouldn’t pay for it. So, to get revenge on the jerk landlord, the tenant went through the lease agreement again and applied the landlord’s logic, but this time in a way that left the landlord fuming.
