Yesterday was tragic, mon. I had to call into work because upon waking up, I noticed that the A/C unit had fallen over on top of my fukin plantz!!!
It was sitting on top of one of those plastic crates, but it collapsed and the whole thing fell forward, but luckily it was stopped by the bottom part of the tent that doesn't open up, so it only fell forward ~45 degrees.
The reason this happened was because the day before yesterday my roommate decided to go into my room while I was at work and close my window which was being used for the intake & exhaust for the A/C. It uses "evaporation technology" so you don't have to empty a tray, but it couldn't do this with the window shut so the tray overfloweed, the bedroom flooded, the a/c shut down, and by the time I got home it was ~114 degrees in that bitch. Mind you, on top of all this, the exhaust tubes from the A/C were stapled, tied, twisted, and crammed under a stapled curtain. He had to remove ALL this before he could close the fucking thing and he didn't even tell me he did it! Wtf?! Talk about being frustrated when I got home... Anyways, I propped the front of the A/C up because the water drainage is in the far back in case the "evaporation technology" isn't removing all of it and it shuts down if the water level gets too high. I guess the uneven weight caused it to collapse the crate. So, yesterday I had to re-rig my exhaust & intake, clean up as much of the 5-6 gallons of water on the floor that I could, find a short wooden box to prop the a/c up on, raise the lights (plants grew ~8"), and buy a deadbolt for when I'm not there.
Why can't people use common friggin' sense????????? I've invested almost $5000 dollars into this and if you knew this roommate, you'd know why this is frustrating. He was just telling me about how important it was that I put his apple tv on sleep mode or it'll overheat and that would be a 100 dollar investment down the drain. I just wish he would show the same respect for my things as he expects for his, especially being as anal as he is. I honestly thought he was trying to fuck my shit up on purpose. It really didn't make sense to me, but he apologized profusely and I'd rather not fight with the guy I have to live with, so I just bought the deadbolt. Sorry, I try not to talk shit about people and this is the only place I can bitch without someone getting butthurt.
