Out of compliance.

So, like a little more than a month ago, my landlord was checking out the entire property of the front house and cottage inclusive, to make sure everything was in compliance for some city property inspections that happen like every decade or so.

Like, he had to make sure there were screens on every window that's openable -- one had gone missing, from the previous tenant who had had an AC unit in that particular window -- and that no extension cords or outlet expanders were present.

As it turned out, after the inspection, there was one finding of non-compliance in my cottage:

The wall-outlets above my kitchen counter should have been of a different type that has these built-in circuit breakers if they get wet, since technically they're within 6 feet of the kitchen sink that's across the narrow aisleway that forms my kitchen.

So, he now has to replace them, and soon.
