bloody ice cubes & bloody tenants
Mood:  irritated
Topic: unreliable tenants
Yesterday evening I was helping out in the operating theatre again, having a gig in an effort to cope with my disastrous financial situation (which is; still working without getting a wage). But actually assisting prof. BK & prof. Patrick is always good fun anyway, as the discussion topics will cover a wide range of subjects. Of course the main topic that evening was the technician, who thinks he?s some kind of half-god for managing to get the air-conditioning to function, while in the mean time we?re freezing our toes of. The only reason why the patient is not loosing too much blood is because the blood drops turn into little ice cubes as soon as they roll out of the blood vessels. But seriously, it?s not normal if in a tropical country, you have to wear 4 OT-shirts on top of each other, completed by an operating gown and even then shivering. Next time I want to operate with padded rubber gloves?
The other topic was of course my lousy tenants who are again not paying the rent (see also 31-10-2004). So prof suggested a possible solution to "convince" my tenants would be to hire a Thai hitman. An interesting suggestion it is, and it only costs 5000 ringgit !! However, prof also mentioned that in getting such a hitman it always involves getting a second Thai hitman as well; to get rid of the evidence by killing the first hitman. No worry about the price, cause by doing such the costs of the first hitman would disappear. However, in getting so complicated I think I'd better restart the procedure to get them to court, so I contacted my lawyer again. Let's see how strong their nerves are; never call me bluff...

Suske & Wiske en de hufterige huurder...

Mhhh, mijn huurder Dennis Olislagers (12-6-1972) heeft nog steeds niet zijn huur betaald. Ik denk dat we inmiddels wel kunnen stellen dat hij een regelrechte wanbetaler is met nu al een huurachterstand van 2 maanden. Ik vrees dat er nu niets anders meer op zit dan over te gaan tot gerechtelijke stappen. Ik ben benieuwd wat er de komende weken verder staat te gebeuren. In ieder geval hadden hij en zijn vriendin Nicole Willems (30-10-1979) niet eens het fatsoen om over het hele gebeuren contact op te nemen. De moraal van het verhaal is dat je niet kunt oordelen naar aanleiding van wat je ziet of wat iemand zijn verhaal of achtergrond is. Verhuurders in Maastricht, u bent gewaarschuwd...

But anyway, the only thing we can do for now is wait. Maybe I will have to return tot the Netherlands to sort things out with this non-reliable tenant of mine if things come to worse... In the meantime I'm sitting here @ Starbucks, trying to take care of all my affairs in an internet-way... Not easy when the power supply keeps on letting us down. As if things weren't eerie enough on top of that this man comes up to me, asking me if I'm ok if he sits down and have a chat with me... Although initially I think he wants to talk to me about Jesus, I take a closer look. I'm dealing here with some Caucasian guy, about my age, dressed well with a neat appearance... and I decide that he probably wants more from me than just a friendly chat and a cup of coffee. Not that that is such a big problem; according to one of my friends (hee, you know who I'm talking about !!) it happens to him all the time. If I were to believe him, both men and women fall for him all the time... He says it's because he is so handsome and the girls think he's just plain cute... har har har... Anyway, I decide to protect him from disappointment and tell him I really have to go on with my business.... That's why some of you guys did get some email from me today, hehehe
