This seems odd to me. Why would someone want to positively filter on this attribute? It seems like you would want to EXCLUDE these sitters, unless I’m missing something. Is this just very poorly worded?

Side note, can we add flair for “app”? I’m not a new sitter, but this is a new feature (or bug).

Edit: I have not left the note. I would like to add though. I’m 32 (f). He’s probably in his 60’s. I’ve knocked and he has never answered. I cannot move right now. It’s not that simple. I love my place but not to the expense of my peace. I pay $1400 a month. I don’t understand why he can’t be respectful of his neighbors? At least smoke on his balcony. He chooses to smoke inside and in the stair well. I have a shit ton of plants, air purifiers, plug ins, candles, etc. but that only goes so far. I’ve been nothing but kind, patient, quiet and respectful to my neighbors. Living with common spaces, and seeing as though we are all grown adults, I expect the same from them and to respect our shared space. It is in our lease. Absolutely no smoking of any kind indoors. Must be 25 feet away. Landlord has made it very clear that smoking in the parking lot is okay and preferred. I’m not trying to be a complaining bitch, but it’s been 7 months of around the clock STINKY ass weed. There are no other units currently available. And I shouldn’t have to just “suck it up” or “get over it”. I deserve to live here in peace, just as he does. I also live on the third floor by myself. Moving isn’t just an easy pick up and go situation. That takes time, money and energy I do not currently have. Additionally, I’ve also been in recovery from all substances for a year now. It’s not ideal to constantly smell it. And I’m definitely not going to a weed store to buy him weed.

My neighbor below me smokes copious amounts of weed. He’s this old ass retired guy, who’s grumpy as hell. I’m talking, smokes from about 6am to 10pm daily. I used to be a pot head. It wouldn’t bother me if it were from time to time. But it’s constant. It’s stinky weed and my apartment reeks of it always. I’ve installed weather strips on my doors, gotten activated charcoal. In all reality, I’ve tried about everything at this point. It’s gotten to a point now, I can’t even keep my windows or doors/screens open otherwise my whole apartment smells like skunky weed. I’m embarrassed when I have guests over because it’s all they smell. I can even tell if they’ve just opened their door simply by the odor that lingers.

Truth be told, I’m frustrated. I’ve gone to the landlord twice. She’s left pretty general notes on all the doors in my building mentioning the reminder that smoking of any kind must be done 25-feet from the building, but nothing has changed. I’ve been living here about 7 months and I’ve just grown more and more irritated.

Is this note a bad thing to leave on their door? I’m not trying to cause a ruckus or anything, but genuinely it’s getting on my very last nerve and I cannot take it anymore. Any advice here? Thanks.
