Apartment Etiquette
Apartment Etiquette
In present day world most of us are able to make our dream come true. In the bird’s eye view, thanks to the eruption of ‘CEMEMT CONCRETE JUNGLES’, which has enabled us to build our own nest for our own livelihood in present days of living. Thanks to the apartment association formation, this binds all the occupants with certain binding rules and regulations.
Life in apartments has many advantages on one side and, has its own disadvantages too. Taking the positive aspects, let’s congratulate our thought for “live and let live attitude”. How far we are practical and do justice to our attitudes---- we need to question our selves.
Here again social behaviour of every individual counts for harmony of others. We human’s so called very successful in our profession, work place, home, fail to adapt to “Apartment Etiquette”. As we also practice to preach to others than practice to self.
We also fail to understand that the way we make a move or changes of our apartment in terms of re-modulation or repair, woodwork, that we undertake for our comforts affects our neighbors well-being who our well-wishers are. Is it not must on our part to adopt few Apartment Etiquette?
Yes, lets learn to live happy and comfortably along with our neighbors in an apartment setting.
Knowing our neighbours
Today’s life style has compelled us to be self-centered and we hardly interact or know who is residing next to us. Let's learn to exchange smiles and greetings with our neighbours. This helps us to maintain a good relationship. And also at times of emergency it is easy to approach our neighbours for help.
Cleanliness.
We are good in keeping our house neat and clean and the same time good in passing certain amount of dust to neighbouring apartments. Let’s learn to maintain our surroundings also neat and clean. At the same we need to maintain the floors also clean and neat. The work can be made easy if on rotation we take the responsibility of getting the floors cleaned and washed regularly.
Putting a word before hand
Well, we need to maintain our house or apartment. For this we need to undertake minor or major repair work or woodwork or re-modulation work. This causes lots of inconvenience to our neighbours in the form of dust, heavy noise and also dropping of cements and other concrete materials into other apartments.
This also welcomes the exchange of harsh words and hampers our relationship with our near and dear neighbours.
So, beforehand if we inform to our neighbours about the proposed work, then it is easy for them to get prepared for the same.
Concern for little ones/aged and sick people
We need to show concern to aged, little ones and sick persons if any residing next to our apartment. First respecting their age and old age-as an illness by itself if some measures are to be adopted that would not disturb their sleep or rest. It holds good even at the time of festival celebrations like Ganesh pooja or Deepavalli. Loudspeakers and burning crackers cause lots of noise pollution and sleep disturbances to the sick people especially with heart problems or so.
At the time of examinations
Well, these days on one side we see most of the older grown up kids preparing for competitive exams and for further studies. On the other side, little play in the corridors of the apartment making noise [as unable to play in a playground or park]. This disturbs the older kids. Make sure that the little ones also enjoy and older kids are also not affected by fixing TIME for playing. This is also informed to all the residences and children also learn to certain amount of responsibility.
