Situation
The washing machine in your shared university apartment began leaking during a normal cycle last night. You stopped the machine, dried the floor, and placed a note on it so that your roommates would not use it. Everyone in the apartment now has laundry waiting, and water appears whenever the machine is filled. Building staff may enter while you are in class on Tuesday or Thursday afternoon. You need the housing office to arrange a repair.
