    No. It is not the tenants responsibility to troubleshoot issues for the landlord.

    Id the tenant says the hot water isn’t working, the landlord needs to show the fuck up and do the work to figure it out.

      Which translation do you prefer?

      I’m not responsible for fixing it, so I’m going to go out of my way to be as unhelpful as humanly possible

      or

      It’s not entirely my problem, so I’m making it your problem, and I’m making sure it’s a problem.

      That mentality is immature and anyone who thinks like that is a bit of a dick.

        Going out of their way to be unhelpful? Oh please, that’s not what’s happening here.
