I'd definitely go with door front trash pickup myself.
As a matter of fact, I'd vote for it both times just to be sure.
So... we got new management at my apt. complex here in Dallas.
They gave everyone a survey before July's rent was due asking for us to vote on our top 2 amenities to add here at the apt. complex.
Here was the list:
__ Sand volleyball court
__ New equipment in the fitness center
__ Expand the fitness center to put in a half court basketball court
__ One time pool party with free beer
__ "Valet" door front trash pickup nightly (for deposit into the various dumpsters around the complex)
__ Installation of a jogging trail around the complex (estimated distance: 1.1 mile loop)
Guess what won:
If you had one time pool party with beer and door front trash pickup, give yourself a pat on the back.
Coulda had a beach vball court, an overhauled gym, halfcourt bball, jogging trail, but we go with the lazy ass of doorfront trash pickup.
Lazy bas s. What a ing joke. Yay, get door front trash pickup instead of walking all of 100 ft. to one of the various dumpsters around the complex.
Good thing 'leased BMW wash and wax' wasn't on the list.

I crashed with a buddy up here for two months while I was looking for a job after graduating. His complex had doorfront pickup as well, and the lasting impressions were roaches and ants making camp at the front door of every apartment at the complex.
Two months after he moved out, they discontinued it due to out of control bug populations.
In short, it's a ing stupid idea, certainly not as good as having a beach vball court or improving our workout facilities.
Of course half the people at my complex are out of shape fat s, so I guess it shouldn't have surprised me.
Recount!
You said pick two, did another one win also?
Dude you live in Dallas did you honestly expect anything less?
I didn't, it just pisses me off that I was right. Half of the people in my complex have to suck in their gut to make it through the front door.If you had (1) one time pool party with beer and (2) door front trash pickup, give yourself a pat on the back.
Like I said, lazy bas s.
They had front door pick up at our old apartment complex when I first moved in. You do it everyday and it's not much of a problem. However, when you decide to cut staff and other maintence corners by reducing the pickups to twice a week you end up with piles of trash that sit for 48 hours at a time and a ing army of feral cats roaming the place.
It always baffled me why they had it in the first place as the one thing this complex had plenty of was dumpsters spaced throughout the complex. (Of course, the way our neighbors dumpster dove they probably could have just painted the word "Swap Meet" on the side of the damn things.) With the exception of occasional rain days, there was nothing that grueling about the 100 yards walk to find one.
It's nice to know Houston doesn't have the market completely cornered on lazy, useless tennants. Thanks AHF.
Ah I read it wrong.
I do what I can.
The sad thing is when I read the options over, I knew what would win. I hate this town. Full lazy ers.
I voted for a beach vball court and a halfcourt bball court as I already have a gym membership, but I knew the gay ass trash pickup would be one of the two picked.
Wasn't sure on the second, but somehow in the back of my mind could see people voting for a one time pool party. BTW, they already had the pool party.
Keystone Light and Natty Light for the free beer
damn, indoor half court basketball.
Nice, could've waited out the regulars and had it all to yourself and gotten the jumper well framed.
Freaking Dallas
From reading the thread le, I thought the tread was going to be about black people.
That's really terrible. Why would anyone want to have a party with other tenants? They really got off cheap.
