HDSI Property Management

For the record Unilocal,I am STILL advocating for the quick implementation of a ZERO star rating option!!! In the interim and to those reading, disregard the one star viewed here as this place wouldn’t warrant a star if they relocated to the corner of Hollywood and Highland.
So…
At the recommendation of a friend, I interviewed for this company located on the corner of 35^th and Broadway… just beneath Jefferson near the DMV and USC.
I should’ve seen the red flags waving when I pulled up and noticed the facility to be in a «loft-​like» environment VOID of parking and surrounded by red zones.
Walking in and mind you, I was interviewing for a Maintenance Director position, w/​sentiments that my area of expertise is more so on the litigation side of things, I was COMPLETELY taken aback to the clusterphuk that stood before me — -
This place is HUGE w/​high ceilings and an absolute «open concept». Yet, there were dogs frolicking around amid frazzled employees, phones ringing to no end and, papers flying as people rushed about to and fro. Believe it or not, there were doggy «piss pads» laid throughout the facility to accommodate the zoo in formation.
I met w/​a woman who I presumed to have been the owner. I didn’t know who the hell she was, but similar to Miranda Priestly, little did I know that her reputation preceded her. She was Caucasian… early to mid 70’s and frankly, upon my mere observation of her coughing — make that ‘hacking’ up lungs as she spoke with me, …coupled by her fidgeting disposition,…she was OBVIOUSLY one step away from death’s doorstep but realizing she could offer me a paycheck, I took one for the team and allowed the good Lord to work His magic.
I sat, patiently waiting for her through clutter, chaos and barking dogs until FINALLY, said bipolar chick arrived only to question me on (get this)… How –I– would go about obtaining a proposal from a vendor??? Mind you all, I’ve been in real estate and property management for upwards of 14 years, I gave her my theory informing her that I’d even go so far as to pull the vendor up on Unilocal to rely on the reviews from fellow Unilocalers.
Her response: «WRONGGGGG! That’s not how you do it!!!»
B!tch, correct me if I’m out of line, but uhm… didn’t you ask me HOW I WOULD DO IT??? Just checking…
Anyway, the interview sucked to high hell and I was compelled to read her her rights on her needing to chill the phuk out, grab a Nicotine patch and pop a Midol. She clearly didn’t want to hear this and rushed off but not before I followed her and recommended she contact «IYANLA» to fix her life. I mean, this place was an absolute mess!!!
Need I comment on how I got the job???
Smfh. My starting salary was projected at $ 20/​hr. COMPLETELY below my pay grade but bearing in mind that I’ve got additional income, once again, I… took one for the team. Imagine my astonishment to arrive, «suited and booted» and ready for my 1^st day only to have this bedridden breezy meet me bright and early,. handing me a stack of papers to file.
Reflecting on my starting salary, if she was seriously willing to pay me $ 40−45K to be a file clerk, then so be it.
Believe it or not, I did so, for 4 days… arriving on time, dressed to impress… texting and vaping on my lunch breaks and concluding each shift with a much overdue session of «Happy Hour»…that is, until I was greeted (if that’s what you want to call it), on my FOURTH DAY THERE, upon the completion of said filing,… and informed that this wasn’t «a good fit». Lol.
No phukkin’ KIDDING!!!
I was issued my last check and noticed a discrepancy that I brought to the attention of her lackey, who I’m guessing, was «acting H.R.». Lord, I tell you. This fool argued w/​me on the semantics involving my check as if I was unaware of how to calculate it!!!
The end result… was him issuing me a replacement check ^^^, only for me to politely saunter over to said rigamortis stricken owner asking her if she’d ever heard of Unilocal.
Her response, «Ken, .just what the hell is this Unilocal you speak of???»
My answer to her inquiry… well, …come to think of it, …I suppose my answer would be this review. B! TCH, IF YOU DONT KNOW… NOW YOU KNOW!!! You’ve just been Unilocaled.
I really haven’t the vaguest clue how places like this are even allowed to stay in business. It’s OBVIOUS this chick has no remorse for her staff let alone COMPASSION AND EMPATHY for the low income housing demographic that she seeks to serve.
***** I would like to offer a humble prayer to the office full of intimidated and kindhearted employees that I met while there. It’s obvious you all feel as if you aren’t able to do better for yourselves. A word of advice.
YOU CAN–
