Eddan was loud, rude, and hostile from the get go. I did not look him in
the eyes because I felt attacked and threatened. Rather, I calmly asked him
(repeatedly) to stop yelling and being confrontational.
I then proceeded to have a panic attack. I will not apologize for being
triggered when large angry men yell at me because I don't take on
responsibility for the action items assigned to others.
Pro tip #1: If you are angry and upset about something, it's best to take
some time to cool off so that you can calmly discuss the issue with the
appropriate party.
Pro tip #2: When someone calmly asks you to stop yelling, the appropriate
response is to stop yelling, rather than yell, "I'm not yelling!!"
All this said, we are very much looking forward to getting Eddan off the
lease and are currently researching insurance options post-meeting (the
new demand for us to have insurance is the reason we have not yet been able
to switch over). If anyone has suggestions or recommendations, please post
them here :)

Hi All.
I just got a whole other set of complaints from the landlords about the
use of the common area without regard for any other tenants in addition to
this bathroom issue. I am still on the lease and have been asking to be
removed since August. I have been feeling quite taken advantage of in
continuously being told that my request will be honored onto after month
without any movement on it. Isn't there enough money in the bank for Sudo
Room to pay for insurance at this point? Is there some other reason I'm
still on the lease?
I've tried to deal with this through Matt and despite his honest efforts,
it keeps getting stalled. After another round of landlord complaints this
evening, I tried to talk to some of the other Board members. While some
expressed surprise that I was still on the lease and others sought a means
to remedy the situation, others were extremely rude, expressing complete
indifference and saying it was not their problem and that I was being
offensive. What!?! And then when I explained that I felt taken advantage
of, was told (without even looking up from the computer) that this was
triggering and told to stop.
Look. I don't want to have any abrupt termination of the lease, but I've
had more than enough of the derision and indifference when I try to ask to
be removed from the lease. To be taunted for asking is outrageous.
Can we come up with a date by which we turn the lease over to Sudo Room?

Hey all,
Whomever is bottomlining big or big-ish events at the space, needs to
check on the
bathrooms during the event, and check on them after the event,
and if they are by some chance trashed, clean them.
Apparently the TP is sometimes running out during big events, causing
people to
use paper towels or napkins or other things, which then clog the
toilets, which makes George really mad.
Specifically, this apparently happened during the Spied Upon event which
I
bottomlined. Even though I cleaned the common area and took out the
garbage etc before and after, I neglected to check on the state of the
bathrooms (so that is totally on me).
What we need to start doing in my opinion is having some extra TP on
hand so we
can pre-stock the bathrooms before large gatherings, so it does
not run out.
I also think if any one of us notices the bathrooms are messed up or out
of
supplies, we should also tell the bottomliner of the event, or fix it
ourselves.
This is especially important to remember at the end of the night when
everyone is
pooped and ready to head home: If you bottomline, check on the
bathrooms before you leave..
Best,
David
