not only does the husband downstairs in my apartment have a terrible temper (screaming in the LOUDEST VOICE POSSIBLE at his two children), but as of a month ago, there is now a beeping noise that they will just let run all day long.

it goes through a set of beeps about every 10 seconds. sometimes they shut it off, sometimes they leave it going for hours on end. lately I hear it from the time I get back from work to the time I go to bed. I CAN STILL FAINTLY HEAR IT WITH NOISE CANCELLING EARPHONES.

i’ll try to describe the pace at which it makes its irritating noise, in the slightest chance someone here might recognize it.

it beeps four times, then faster three more times

( beep beep beep beep … beepbeepbeep)

does it seem like some serious medical equipment with some unplugged warning system? (iv therapy something or other?). or a child’s toy? or a home appliance?

on the 3-4 days when I have been less patient, I have banged on my wall in rhythm with the beeps, so they get the idea, and sometimes they shut it off.

i dont like the idea of talking with them, because Ive never taken the time to meet the adults face to face. and I would feel strongly tempted to lose my cool on the husband for yelling at his kids and for them letting whatever that noise is happen without stopping. what can I do? i know I’m probably handling this all like a jerk, but I cant help but ask why they would let something go off like this all day long.

for each set it beeps fast 3 times, then 2 more times, then it repeats itself
