Today was a very rough day. For starters, tomorrow was supposed to be the grand opening of a small business my mom and I were going to open. After spending exhausting and aggravating hours and money to get everything started, our landlord tells us TODAY that we can't open it, because NOTHING is ready and probably won't be ready for a long time (even though he informed us YESTERDAY that everything would be ready). Long story short, now he's trying to scam us out of our rightful money owed to us. Sadly, I'm afraid this may end up in small claims court. I was afraid that I was going to lose my mind and go crazy. I'm usually very quiet and calm, but if something makes me extremely angry, there's no telling what I'm capable of. I am so sick and tired of meeting people who are con artists and scammers. Aren't there any decent people left in this world? Please, someone renew my hopes that there is just ONE good person left! (Sorry for the long rant)

I'm sorry things didn't work out for you...but try not to let it discourage you...there are good people left but when it comes to money it can be hard to sift through the bad guys to get to the honest ones..there are alot of people out to make a fast buck....
I'm sure you and your mom will get your business up and running in no time and in a far better place then this one would have been...just stay with it.. don't lose hope...

I'm really sorry ((((((((((Anony))))))))))
Some people are schmucks. I do hope that things work out for you as soon as possible, but I do believe that you'll be able to open up soon. Keep on posting and tell us how things go as it happens, okay? Take care of yourself.

Thanks for the comforting words (FaithisAlive). We threatened the landlord with a small claims report and he seems to be coming around. He said he may be able to work something up with the money tomorrow, so hopefully that will turn out all right.

Just a quick update: he eventually coughed up the money and apologized. I guess this makes him a little less of a jerk than I orignially thought he was.
