Crazy. Why is 9:00 the witching hour for drying clothes? What difference is 15 minutes going to make? Does your laundry room close at 10:00? And what are they hoping to dry in 20-30 minutes anyway? Even a load full of nothing but undies would take longer.
Spike: Ladies. Come on in. Plenty of blood in the fridge, don't be shy. Dawn: You mean like, real blood? Spike: What do you think? Dawn: Mostly I think, 'Eew!'
'Potential'

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
We're not supposed to do laundry past 9. My interpretation of that (with which I've played fast and loose, but never mind) is that you're supposed to be done with the machines by then. I can put enough dosh in at 8:59 to have those dryers running all night.
That having been said--any load started at 8:30 is going to run past 9. AND THE WASHERS WEREN'T EVEN DONE YET. So I did not affect their schedule in the slightest, even before you get to the empty dryer.
At least the apartment manager seemed confused by the noise the still anonymous tenant made.
If I were just a little crabbier I'd have lurked for those 4 minutes so I could make eye contact.
Instead I came back to my apartment and ordered pizza.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
Which means they must have complained pretty much right as my (one--the other dryer's empty) dryer finished, and they were the ones that told the (new) building manager my apartment # (I bumped into her on the way out).You should tell them about your pinkie. Or let us.

Of course, cranking Oingo's "Insanity" over the computer speakers is always a good way to start a night.

Woe to the fucking wicked.
I've been very tired lately (earlier than is reasonable) for no discernable reason. Tonight, I'm sleeping in the living room, as that's where the warm and pretty fire is.
Why are you on night shift, connie?

Everyone gets their turn at the overnight weekend tech support chat line. Tonight's my turn. I wonder if anyone will mind if I sing along to "Try To Believe". Let's find out.
