I had hoped that with more people (I'm guessing) living in apartments here in Poland, that maybe people would be a little more sensitive to issues such as noise and generally try to not be a major pain to the other people in their building. But either was I completely wrong I just happened to be unlucky.
Ever since my new neighbors moved in just before Christmas (they own the apartment right across the hall from the one I am renting) I have had the unfortunate luck of having to listen to music blasting until after midnight on many weekends, and a party every other weekend or so where the music goes on until 2am usually.
It's basically everything I hated about apartments growing up. Except that now I have no idea what the cultural norm is (for all I know, on Saturday's your expected to be able to be loud until 2am) and even if I was inclined to go complain, I don't speak enough Polish to communicate with either them or the folks at the security desk to see if their are rules about that sort of thing.
Maybe I should just buy a stereo system and every time I think they are getting too loud I could point the speakers at their wall can crank Metallica, Megadeath, W.A.S.P, and other heavy metal to hopefully get my point across. It would certainly be different than the Adele and other pop and dance music I am otherwise bombarded with.
And yes, I know this whole rant makes me sound REAL old. What can I say. I'm turning into the crabby old man who lives next store to Beavis and Butthead. =D
May your weekend be quieter, and more enjoyable, than mine.
