The Long Weekend
Highlights (in no particular order):
- Ran 12 km.
- Bought lovely new running gear including new shoes, cold weather gloves & hoodie and finally a wonderful Lululemon bag to tote all the gear in.
Lowlights (in order of occurrence):
- Jimmy's battery died (it was parked on the street).
- Found driver's side window of Ranger smashed (it was parked in heated underground parkade) and garage door opener stolen from inside.
- Noticed that Motorbike was stolen (it was also parked in heated underground parkade).
- Called building manager - no answer.
- Called Building 24 hour Emergency number - told to call back on Tuesday morning - as no one was available to deal with request.
- Called police - made report - then waited 6 hours for officer to show up.
- Officer was under impression that we had "tools" for him. Showed him discarded tools used in theft. Officer picked them up and discarded them in trash.
- Called insurance. Comprehensive on all vehicles - except bike. Will call back Tuesday morning.
- Building manager called - is in Kelowna. The on-call manager suppose to arrive to help us on Saturday afternoon. Never showed.

It sounds like your weekend was full of one thing: Assholes.
Except that wonderful guy that came and boosted the Jimmy.
My parents said the same thing about the insurance on the bike, it should be covered under your tenants insurance.

I can relate. My car was broken into in my underground parking. They took the faceplate from my cheap $100 stereo, but not the stereo. Brilliant. Luckily no damage to the car from them attempting to get in, because 'we' (and by that I mean Nick) left the door unlocked.
I got a phone call at 1:15 am from a police officer on the home phone, which is not listed under my name. Was creeped out a little, until I went downstairs and say 2 strapping young cops. Hello. They had looked up my info from licence plate and phoned my Mom, who gave them my phone number. The were so good looking I couldn't even be mad about the car. I stayed up till 3 am dreaming about cute cops. I didn't call the insurance, as not enough damage was done.
To top it off I had to get up the next morning and drive to Lethbridge for a job interview. Wonderful. People suck.
AND a couple months earlier the front wheel of my bike was stolen from the same 'secure' underground parking.
