No Heat! No Hot Water!
It's 2:30AM right now and 16°F outside and this is the 4th night in a row I am without heat or hot water. I will complain again in the morning, they will try to fix it and say it's fixed, but it won't happen.

You sound like you live in a apartment building or similar
I live in the middle of nowhere in northern Wisconsin I have to be dependent on myself and my family. No neighbors to check on us, no cellphones to call for help. We been living like this for 20 years now.
For emergency heat, I have two barrels bolted together to make a barrel stove. Sitting on the back porch. It will go in when crap fails.
For hot water I have pipes running though the heat exchanger part of the barrel stove. The pipes have quick connects
For water in case of power outages. I have hand pumps that pump water the old fashion way without electricity
