I called it in like 3 hours ago, and nobody's showed up yet. Should I just eat a granola bar to tide me over? I don't have too much here at the moment that doesn't require heating up.

All of the windows are open, so I don't think I'll pass out, but what do?

i'd be very careful about anything with an open flame if you can still smell the gas.

If its an option waiting somewhere else or going out for food would be a really good idea imo.

You'd think theyd respond to that quicker.

Nah, yeah. I'm not gonna mess with that 'til someone comes by. If I get too hungry, I suppose I could hit up a drive thru or something.

I've gotta work til 6 or I'd probably leave for a while, but I'm not at all surprised they haven't showed up yet. They're very incompetent about this stuff. If I start getting light headed, I'll dip out.

Eh, I might just bypass the management and call 911. They can take the heat for ignoring me.

Landlords should be required to provide a carbon monoxide detector if they rent out units with gas

bruh, after like hour 1 of the management company not showing up, you should have called non-emergency services.

Id call them, gas leaks aint nothing to fuck with. Id call the management company one more time and tell them if they arent there in like 10 min, youre calling the city. Im sure theyll get off their ass at that point.

Why the fuck are you still in the house if you suspect that there's a leak? You need to evacuate immediately.

You should probably leave asap.

And give warning to your neighbours, especially if you live in an apartment.

I called up the fire department and we got it solved. I havent been home in a few weeks and I guess my pilot light on the stove was out (and that makes it leak gas apparently?) so they relit and gave me the good to go.

Property management showed up like 10 minutes later after I told on them for ignoring me.

Honestly, I dont even think I have a fire alarm. Ive never seen it if I do.

But at least I can eat now.

This is why we need to stop using Gas Powered Stoves & Appliances.

Induction Cooking is way more efficient than Electric or Gas powered Stoves.

https://insteading.com/blog/energy-efficient-induction-cooking/
There are no Energy Star certifications for ranges, but research by the U.S. Department of Energy indicates an induction cooker is 84% efficient at energy transfer, versus 74% for a smooth-top electric unit, giving it a heating performance comparable to a gas element. More significantly, induction is 90% efficient with its power use, using 2.8 kW to deliver 2.52 kW. This is a substantial improvement over electric coils, which use 2.0 kW to deliver 1.1 kW (a 55% efficiency), and over gas, which uses 3.5 kW to generate 1.75 kW (a 50% efficiency).

Yes, Induction has higher Upfront unit cost, but the operational cost is far cheaper.

It did! I'm not starving anymore and I also don't think I'm gonna die either. That's what I like to call a win win.

Yeah, it's not the best. Thankfully, the burner covers are easy to move so it's not as bad to clean though.
