Butchered

Apparently, this is considered a first world problem to some people, but I cannot help but be so pissed off and upset and devastated. My mom and I live together, we have lived in the same house for 21 years, that is my age minus one year. So this is the only place I know. We don't have a lot of money, this house is old and falling apart and we do not have the funds to fix everything, just one thing at a time and even then some things are too far gone. But there was one thing that always made me happy about my home. Something that everyone knew was an identifier. It was our big tree in our front yard. I have seen this tree every single day of my life, I used to play under it, even took naps and got bit by a bunch of ants. Later on I would sit under it, still got bit by ants, and write under it. I love this tree. My landlord, the cheap idiot he is, decided to hire people to give it a trim. Okay, that is fine, he does that once a year, cool, we do not have to pay for it, that is fine! But, every single time he hires whatever cheap company he can find and they ruin our tree. Last year they just chopped one side and left, didn't even it out. this year...my god, this year, my mom and I are in tears with the butchering they have done to our tree. Apparently, these fools don't know the difference between trim and cut! My grandma (who lives next door) comes out and yells at them going "did he tell you to trim or cut the tree?" And they replied with, "He told us to cut it down because it was a weak tree" My hiney that was a "weak tree" NO! That tree was beautiful, strong, Flourished amazingly! If my grandma did not go out there they would have completely cut this tree down! My grandma then texted our landlord and asked if he said to cut it down or trim and he replied with Just a trim. I am pretty sure he is so ticked off and has fired them. I just hope he didn't pay them. Ugh, our poor tree, cheap labor is never good. I just hope our tree grows back before we get a cold snap so it can survive.
