I'm going to ask my upstairs neighbours to stop being so heavy footed
Why would you mention that to your neighbors?
I can't concentrate and that is really affecting my work.
I can understand how noisy that must be for you. It is good to get an upper level apartment if noise bugs you. People can't help how they walk and if it is so easy to hear, then maybe headphones or moving would be better.
I know it's not their fault. I just want to start a fight with them, because I'm bored and want attention. Let me tell you, I've lived in many apartments complexes, and these are the worst neighbors.
Is there a way to change rooms if you aren't getting along with them? Getting into a fight on purpose would only cause you drama and stress.
