Suffice to say that the condo board right now has a $30,000 deficit and growing probably because we don't have a reserve fund...which is bad. And it's a new building. (Not worth the details on this forum..) So even turning off lights in some underused public areas is a big deal for us (ie. garbage room, storage locker, etc.)
We actually have a security problem of other situations related to strangers getting into parking areas, etc. The young man was a stranger and trespassing.
As for unemployed...I've been there twice for many months each time...and know there is a thin line that separates between us and the homeless. I made use of whatever govn't program services available for unemployed during those times. Yes, being unemployed means being misunderstood --often enough.
The young man probably needed to see a job counsellor, etc.
Maybe see this situation if reframed: Would you allow some homeless people to sleep in your backyard and use your washroom, etc.?
I know it's enough to have adult children who are unemployed and living with their parents..
