6:00 a.m. Helped my husband get ready for work.
8:00 Got my son up for school.
9:00 Dropped my son off at school.
9:10 On the freeway and off to work.
9:30 My RF (Relief Manager) is already here. She’s a ball to work with—funny,
great attitude, and good at what she does—which makes the day enjoyable.
10:00 A tenant we know brought us grapes from the 99-cent store.
10:30 Made calls, collected payments, Webrap (collecting). Called my friend
at the Fountain Valley property to ask a question about an invoice.
11:00 Did a merchandise inventory count and faxed it to my friend at the
Newport property. Today there’s a district manager working out of the office. He’s
great to have around—he has a fun sense of humor. Did a rental for a nice young
couple.
11:30 My gardeners just left (I like them—they do a great job).
12:00 p.m. Did a lock check—someone left boxes and a broken picture (I had
one of the other RFs throw it away).
Called a tenant who left a bike chained to their unit (can’t do that). Printed notes
for auction (today at 1 p.m., I’m selling the contents of four units whose tenants
have defaulted on payments).
1:30 Old coworker from a year ago stopped by to see what was up.
2:00 My RF’s daughter got sick. The school called and she picked her up during
lunch break and dropped her off at her aunt’s house.
2:30 Helped another property manager with an accounting issue and called
our hotline for support.
3:00 Took the golf cart out to throw away trash and cruise the property.
4:00 Took a lot of payments (everyone’s trying to avoid the late fee) and
had lunch with my RF in the back room.
4:30 Tenants’ little boy fell asleep on a moving blanket—they had been here
a few hours with the movers. I went into the office to cool off and then brought
them some water and let the boy sleep.
6:00 Drove home (traffic was good).
7:00 Fixed dinner then watched my husband show my son how to ride a bike
(he’s only four years old).
9:00 Son and husband both asleep. Writing in my journal.
10:00 Bedtime.
