Negligent Infliction of Emotional Distress
Generally, the hot water in my apartment takes some time to warm up, but I’ve never really had a problem with it until a few weeks ago. A few weeks ago, I was waiting for the water to warm up, but it never happened. For the next week I was taking ice cold showers. It was miserable. We complained to the landlord but he didn’t do anything for a while. This morning I was waiting for the water to warm up, but it didn’t happen. I can deal with cockroaches in the kitchen and sharing a bathroom with four other people, but this was too much. I was distraught. I was going to have to take an ice cold shower, my day would be ruined, I’d get sick again, get behind on my work, I’d fail out of school, my girlfriend would break up with me, and I’d die a sad, lonely man. At this point the water warmed up.
