Just a heads up but it is often illegal to forbid pets and children in apartments. Where I live that is the case. Lease clearly said ‘no pets’ but manager says f all when I take my dog for walks. If you want a pet I suggest looking into the laws regarding that in your area.
not even asking them to do anything for me because last time I did, one of them said she would take a batch of documents to a nearby department but then outright ignored it and I had to do it myself.
From what little we have to go on this seems to be the culprit. While workplaces may seem like a microcosm of polite society there are ‘rules’. One of which is ‘do your own work’. If someone offers to do something because it just happens to be convenient for them that is one thing. Appearing friendly in an attempt to manipulate others to take on your responsibilities may not be your intention but it is what 90% of people are wary of at work. Be friendly, but do not ask for help until you are good friends and play the tit-for-tat game shrewdly.
Oh nos! I’ve awakened the ire of the Flat Death Star-ers!
Exhibit A: The hangar scenes
For me its more the risk that making real and fake speech indistinguishable renders any speech meaningless.
