I used to live in a small apartment building without individual mailboxes so we could just see each other’s power bills. The first time they arrived, I was dumbfounded by how much everyone else paid. I’m not gonna give exact numbers because it means nothing unless you live in the same country and state but it’s enough to say their bills was literally 10 to 15 times what mine was. It was a very warm place so I just assumed they ran the AC all the time until we went through a particularly hot summer and I decided to just eat the bill and ran it 24/7 as well. My bill was a little over 3 times the usual amount. WHAT THE HELL WAS EVERYONE ELSE IN THE BUILDING DOING?!
If they were doing what my relative was doing - running the AC in one area yet leaving the windows open in another. Complained to me about the huge electric bill…I didn’t see the point in trying to explain why their behavior was driving that bill.
