vw, in my leases it's always been stated that the landlord will give X length of time notice before entering the apartment. I'm guessing this isn't in yours?

The lease states, "Tenant agrees to allow the Landlord reasonable access to the residence for inspection and repair. Landlord agrees to only enter the residence after notifying the Tenant in advance, except in an emergency."

And, the law was stated above.

Well, I don't think you'd be untoward to give them a few stipulations, especially because of Toto. Making sure they confirm the visit with you would be good.

I'm guessing that you live in a small building? So there's no demo or empty apartment they could show.

Oh, no. There's only two units in the building.

So I haven't really talked about it in here, because the last three weeks have been stress like as never been known to me before, but: for a couple weeks I was battling a pissed-off professor who was determined to fail me for work I completed within the structure of the proposal I created last fall and within the time limits as given to me by the student handbook. The professor believed wrongly that I'd completed an internship, not an independant study, and though I corrected her on that, I assume she was still smarting from her own idiocy that, when she entered the grade, she gave me an F. Which I just saw this morning.

Needless to say, I don't fuckin' deserve that F. And I'm three days away from graduation and have my last final today, and just cannot *deal* with this bitch and her issues. But I can't have that F on my transcript, especially when it is undeserved.

What the fuck is wrong with the world?

SA, i'm so sorry to hear you have to deal with such a difficult person. However, I bet it can wait until you are done with your final. Don't let her ruin all the work you've put into studying. (or try not to - it's easy for me to say "don't".)

OMG, SA. That is awful.

wait... time to go to a department head

Oh, shit, SA, that's wretched. I do remember you mentioning it in passing before, and I remember thinking, "Well, that sounds too ridiculous to come to anything; obviously it'll all get straightened out."

Gah. You so do not need the stress and the stupid stupid battle right now, and you so do not deserve that un-grade.

What the fuck is wrong with the world?

I think the problem is stupid people.

SA, take a deep breath, smite her and enjoy graduation. You will probably have to go over this woman's head, to the department chair, and possibly a number of deans with your complaints, but the F will be removed one way or another.
