I moved into my apartment with my husband and 10 month old son about 4 weeks ago. We were supposed to move in on a Monday, well after I called all week waiting for a response I finally got to move in the following Friday. When I arrived at the apartment they didn't do a walk thru before I moved in and it was filthy. They came to clean it while I was out and when I got home I noticed they didn't clean much. I complained about it again and they sent a lady out who was very rude to me and was cussing in front of my baby (which I don't allow) She was not happy that she had to come out on a Saturday to clean so I gave her 2 things to do and told her to get out. My son crawls on the floor and after about 30 minutes of him being down there his knees and feet turn black. I've complained about this several times. I also keep finding push pins on the carpet which are in a very convenient place for my son to get them and put them in his mouth. I've complained about this also. They said then sent somebody out to clean the carpets again and I believed them because when I got home the carpets were still a little wet. However the next day I found another push pin and my son had turned black again. I waited a few days before I complained again. I took my sons black knees and feet to show them the proof on a friday in the eartly afternoon, the maintance man said he would call the carpet people and see what they could do and he would call me back asap. Monday morning I still had no phone call so I called the office manager and asked her what she was doing about my carpets, after catching attitude with me she told me they had been cleaned already but she would do it again. I mentioned the push pins and asked if she could make sure they were all up. She said "well I don't knwo what to tell you, they're not gonna go over it with a magnifying glass" She also made a comment that I thought was rediculous...it went like this "When I'm wearing white socks at home and I walk on my carpet my feet turn black too" I had to bite my tongue when she said that. I don't want to get evicted but I can't have my son turning black every 30 minutes and I'm going nuts thinking that he's swallowing push pins. Please somebody tell me what I can do.
