Sorry so late...*yawwwn*

[msfledermaus]

I was woken up at 1:30 by an extremely loud domestic arguement across the hallway that lased until 2 pm. (again with the late-night waking up...*shudder*) At a couple of poits I was reaching for the phone to call the cops, since we don't have our security force for the building anymore...but the arguement,while *very* loud, didn't sound like it was violent--just heated. Real heated.

*rubs forehead and yawns*

Besides, if I popped my little head out the door I might have escalated the situation.

But I'm dropping off a note to my manager so A: I can register a complaint, and B: Try to get the lady some help if she needs it, because I'm worried. I'm not real good with people yelling, ask anyone who knows me.....

You know, I was thinking about what you've said, very carefully...and no, it wouldn't make a difference. It wouldn't matter if it was some other kind of relationship. And I know from past experience that people who've had a few get more violent, not less. It would make me call that much faster. I believe verbal abuse is unacceptable, no matter who it comes from.
(granted there are times this rule has to be broken--fighting for your life, extreme duress, etcetra...but it's not okay to have to live your life like that, no matter who's doing it.)

If it was just drunken giggling or music or tv, I'd just knock and ask them to keep it down. I've done it before. But this was definitely frightening.
