Next Time I Am Home Alone & Taking A Shower The TV Will Be Turned Off First…

I kept hearing noises like someone was in the house. I had taken my phone out of my pants pocket and laid it on the bed before showering so I couldn’t have called 9-1-1 if I wanted to if someone had actually gotten into the house. I think it was just stuff on tv that was making the noises.
You're definitely vulnerable in the shower. Shampooing your hair, eyes closed and your imagination wanders toward the movie, Psycho 😵‍💫

@BizSuitStacy I’ll turn the TV off and if they want in bad enough they are going to have to make a lot of noise & I’ll call the cops if they do.

Make sure you lock your doors !!!

@Teslin They were locked but the door stick wasn’t jammed up against it.

@cherokeepatti I hope it was the TV as you thought.
Or, maybe they just wanted to join you in the shower?

@Teslin It was the TV. If someone had gotten in there would have been damage. I have two locks on the front door so a bump key is not going to unlock it.

I hear things while I am trying to sleep. It's usually the cat.

ANYONE with a master key can walk in here any time. That includes ALL maintenance staff. That makes me nervous...but I can't block the door in case of a medical emergency.

Instead, I push the trash can in front of the door. It will make a lot of noise if someone tries to get in.

@4meAndyou Oh when I lived in university apartments there were so many with keys that could have walked in. And they made sure they came into the apartments to check something every 2-3 weeks in addition to maintenance calls. Sometimes they’d get water heaters, or ceiling lights, fire alarms, drains to make sure they weren’t clogged because they tied into the next apartments drains, etc. I think they were mostly checking for things that were forbidden like pets or washer/dryers being used (had to use laundromat there but some tried to save money & use a portable washer & hang out clothes on the clothesline next to the laundromat), the a/c vents etc.

When they did come in they’d knock loudly (the doors were metal & LOUD) and yell MAINTENANCE or MANAGER, and then let themselves in. They didn’t want to see anyone that was sitting around or sleeping naked on the sofa etc.

@cherokeepatti You do have guns and you do know how to use them, don't you?

@YMITheWayIM not saying yes and not saying no. That’s the question mark that just might keep them at bay.
