I had a call today from the building manager, saying that the handyman will be coming next Monday to start the work. I told her I'd not had enough time to arrange alternative housing and suggested we find another solution. She was not happy. But she called back a little while later with the alternative I'd suggested. This means I don't have to move out. It's funny how quickly things change. I don't think the mention of the word "lawyer" had anything to do with it, do you?
