Soon my entire little diary will consist of entertaining letters from the Housing Inspectorate:

from here Just like reports from the front. Opposition figure A. Navalny is advancing, but we have held back the assault of superior forces and begun the planned resolution of issues. Housing Inspector Comrade Stepanov from Lipetsk single-handedly dealt with ten complaints and, without waiting for reinforcements in the form of DEZ staff (a Soviet/Russian municipal housing maintenance office), personally screwed in a light bulb at 15 Karl Liebknecht Street, thereby winning the support of the local population. Housing Inspectorate units in Saratov, operating on the city’s Western and Southern fronts, pushed back the enemy, who had complained about the insufficient temperature of the hot water, by redirecting the foe’s attention to the problem of water in the basement. Inspector Terekhov, summoned to citizen Menshova under the pretext of measuring cold water pressure, was taken prisoner by her. A combined volunteer detachment from the accounting department has been sent to rescue him. Well, we’re very pleased that the first wave of applications has subsided, there were no losses, and all letters will be reviewed. There had been concern that after the first flood of complaints, housing inspectors across the country would go into denial, go on strike, or call in sick. Everything is fine. The housing inspectors held their ground. http://roszkh.ru/
