Matter with landlord

I'm saving money for Valentine's so next month I'm going to be so pok-kai liao. Must save money and start dieting. Talking bout dieting, I've realized that I'm gaining weight. I think I ate too much during break time or maybe I've been in Front Desk makes me gained weight. Last week when I was in housekeeping, I make up almost 15 bed per day (the bed is bloody heavy, okay? It's hotel, not your home normal tilam). So from now on, I must start to diet. Not next month. LOL

I've even calculated how much I could save per month and it's only maximum 1,000 baht. I'm so broke!! It's only the balance after I've deducted the necessary expenses like transport, grocery and rental. That's all. WTF?!

I felt so frustrated when settling matters with the landlord. The electricity bill came on the 17th, earlier than we have expected and the bill was actually for last month consumption. As me and Enric just moved in, it is unacceptable to pay it although the amount is not that huge. We went to pay at the nearest 7 eleven and we were told that we're late and additional 40 baht penalty will be fined and the current usage is 180 baht. Total to pay, 300+ baht. What?!

I informed the agent and he said owner wanted to see the bill. Why? I don't know.

But this is what I think. I've calculated that the first bill received which 50 baht is the usage of 17 November to 17 December. Owner did not settle the bill and additional penalty of 40 baht were added as late payment. As current bill which 200 baht was received on the 17 January is the usage for 17 December up to 17 January. Since we moved in on the 6th, of course we pay the bill starting on the 6th. Takkan we pay all the bill for free for the owner. No right? So I divided the 200 baht to 32 days (17 December to 17 January) for a better calculation. I told the agent to inform the owner and I think owner have a thought of me trying to cheat money. Okay lor... I give you check. He wanted us to put it into mailbox but never pick it up as he said that he will come over on Tuesday/Wednesday. Now is Saturday, it's still in mailbox. Ha-Ha...

I texted the agent and inform that I'm not willing to pay another 40 baht penalty if the owner keep/leave the bill unattended. He said that it is ridiculous for arguing the 40 baht. Excuse me? I'm not arguing, I just wanted to have my right as tenant and it is my responsibilities. I don't want the electrical supply to be cut off. The person who is ridiculous is the owner. Cut off the tv channel without informing. I haven't complain GAO GAO LAT yet. And now wanted to check the bill just to see if we are trying to con his money. Please lah... RM30 only, is not really important for me to argue. It's the matter of word that the owner said will pick up on Tuesday but he did not. If my electrical supply got cut off, I will complain GAO GAO LAT.
