The day my washing machine flooded the kitchen in Phoenix last August

I came home to a lake in my kitchen because the drain hose popped off mid-cycle, and my landlord said it was my fault for not checking it. The water warped the cheap laminate floor and I had to spend $200 on a dehumidifier that barely worked. Do you think this is a maintenance issue or did I actually mess up by not securing the hose better?

Landlords always try to blame you for maintenance stuff that's totally on them.

Totally tripped on my own shoelaces once and still got charged for a "maintenance call" haha

Totally feel you on this. It's frustrating when they act like every little thing is your fault, even when it's basic wear and tear.
