I live in a low income apartment, because I am disabled and only recieve very little income a month. I keep my apt nice, my kids are dressed nice, I have a nice car, I am polite, and I try to not think of myself as being limited physically because it makes me cry and depressed. Today at my apt.....when the school bus comes they always complain about having to open the gate so today out of the kindness of me...I opened the gate. It was hard to do but I pushed it open and then the wheel went off of the cement and off into the ditch...... I went and told my land lady that I opened the gate for the school bus and the wind blew it off the cement and I can't get it back on.....she threw afit like a two year old..."ugh if you can't shut it then do you think you need to be opening it in the first place!" and rolled her eyes.......her sister who lives across the hall opened her door and "what happened?" The land lady told her sister "She opened the gate and now its stuck, I just don't know how we're gonna get it shut!?" I turned around indefence and said "I tried to shut it, its too heavy to pick up, I even hurt my hand." and she slammed the door on me.........I have never been treated this horrible for something that was an act of god. I went back to the door with my hurt hand and tried picking it up again but I could budge it and I have splinters in my fingers now and my fingers are numb....... I asked my neighbor if he could get the gate....he barely got it cause the door is so heavy......The land lady told him to tell me to go back to her apt that she needed to talk to me......I didn't wanna go back over there because I knew she was gonna make me feel worse, but I didn't wanna not go because then she would be like "I told you that I needed to talk to you" and then be more mad.......so like a unwilling child being pushed to do something, I staggered over there..... I knocked on the door and she opened it all I said was, "Josh said you guys wanted to talk to me?" and she flipped out......Don't you ever come over here with that attitude again, I will not tolerate it!" and was shocked....seriously my mouth dropped and my eyes grew huge "What? When was I rude?" She said "Just right now" Seriously me....asking her a question was rude? I absolutely was shocked that she thought my question was rude.....but I guess most pintocaustals think catholics are rude.....I was and always have been nice as can be and then when she made me feel like trash over a fence door I still went over there and was polite......... I then told her, "Oh I didn't relize that I was rude but if you think that my question to you was rude then I am very sorry for being rude." You would think that me saying that she would have lightened up some.....ha NO it didn't Her responce was...."Will you were and I mean it, don't come over here being rude!"I said I just apologized so again I didn't think I was rude so again I'm sorry............Well just don't let it happen again! Seriously what kind of person revokes an sincere apology, trying to be nice.....whatever. She's old and obviously cranky.....I wish I could of told her that she really hurt my feelings........How would she like to do something unnattentionally and then be belittled because of physical limitations....if I was stronger maybe I could have put it back up on the cement....If it stayed on the cement I could have pushed it back......I hope god kicks her in her @ss, and I know he will because thats how life is......good things only come when your nice and treat others how you would wanna be treated, you don't get anywhere by being mean!I'm serious she was so mean to me that I walked back to my apt crying, and then took a Zoloft. Has anyone treated you like toilet paper that was just used to wipe an +ss for no reason?Oh and by the way they need to remember they're making money off of me, and I always pay my rent on time, I have no problem telling them to kiss my butt and going somewhere else where I don't have to beg to get stuff done or have problems asking for help.....I will not be going over there again.

That sucks, your landlady could make more of an effort to be a people person! I don't see how it's related to you being disabled? I would just ignore her, don't let it get to you to the point you need to medicate yourself!! She's just a jerk!

She could of said....Well if you tried and you can't do it, then we'll find someone who can, its not a big deal its just a door.....you shouldn't be lifting things that you aren't capable of doing because of your handicap, just tell me know if you need help with anything and we'll get someone to help you. No no no...b..i..y..a..t..c..h is what she was.
