Little progress to report on the power down situation in THINK UK. The new management company finally has a real store front to house their office instead of the carnival tent that they were residing in before. Unfortunately the clownish activities that usually happen inside are still a main feature of this management company. After my suggestion of leaning harder on the 600 residents that have not paid their electric bill was rejected, I decided to obtain the full list of these 600 residents and give them each a "friendly" reminder that their bill needs to be paid immediately. So we manually cut power to 200 of the 600 residents in hope to spur some action before Black Monday is upon us.
Side Note: I apologize to anyone that is falsely accused of bad behavior. Most outraged residents are looking for me "the foreigner who is turning people's power off."
Even after the steady flow of residents went to pay their unpaid bills the new management company was still upset that I would dare do something that was their job. I explained that if they were doing their job then I wouldn't feel the need to do it for them.
All in all, after much prodding the new management company supposedly began negotiating with the power company to only turn off the power to those residents that have unpaid bills. Something I wished would have been done before cutting the power off to everyone. So I will check again tomorrow and hopefully there will be some hope that Black Monday can be avoided. Until then I am off to use as much electricity as I can before its too late.
