#15: Energy Inefficient
It’s always the worst when you have to charge your phone and you can’t find a wall outlet. Now, imagine if this happened every day in your own home! This person couldn’t believe their eyes when they moved into their new apartment and saw how the contractor took care of this old electrical outlet.
Instead of taking the time to disconnect and take out the outlet, they just built around it with the cheap laminate so commonly found in apartments these days. Don’t you just love when you only have access to ⅓ of an outlet? It’s so useful! This photo is infuriating, but not really surprising. Landlords are always trying to cut corners and save money in any way they can. Why pay for an electrician when you can just cover it up?
