I'm so pissed.
I've drafted a letter to the landlords twice (deleted a page worth of text twice). I constructed an LJ post. And in the end I deleted that for being too bitchy and wordy for the pointlessness of it.
Basically? Elevator wasn't working and the restaurant on the first floor refused to let a deliveryman use the stairs.
I'm positively pissed at this restaurant. We've been in the building 6 years; this restaurant has been here less than 6 months. They have had people asking for our location and told them there was no business in the building by that name (more to the point, they said the only two restaurants were them and the club downstairs - and then proceeded to try and get the people to come in for lunch). They told the deliveryman he'd have to go around the block and use the parking deck entrance (he refused and called us instead). They don't operate in conjunction with the other businesses in the building. They refuse to do anything to foster a good relationship (other than to offer to deliver food to us for free should we order something from them - but that offer wasn't made until someone in our office went down there to eat and happened to mention they worked upstairs).
I'm going to be a nice person and write the landlord to ask to foster an agreement - that any delivery that comes to the building when the elevator is down (that is a delivery, say, from FedEx or our newspapers - not our vendors like printers, who do know other entrances and will walk around or have our number and can call us), they need to sign for and call us immediately and we'll meet them at the bottom of the stairs to get it. FedEx will not go around to the parking deck. And we can't NOT get a package. If they refuse, my boss gets to go off on them at that point, and no one wants him to have to take care of it. He'll demand that anyone who comes to our building be allowed access to the stairs. They'd lose out on working with the reasonable one (me) in favor of the ones that will go off half cocked.
So this was me giving the short version of ranting and pissed.
