I am a tad annoyed!

The lady that lives in the apartment below us is a little bit of a control freak. We figured that out only one week into moving. She has not done anything as of yet but I have noticed that the lady who lives beside us avoids the downstairs lady as much as possible. When they do talk the downstairs lady does all the talking and the upstairs lady looks ready to dash as the first draw of breath. The upstairs lady always has a nice smile for me. Her son speaks a bit of English and has started restudying his Chinese because he can practice on Li. I think the poor lady is trapped with a husband who works ALL day and a son who is 21, has no job, no hobby, no girlfriend, AND lives at home.
Anyway, back to the downstairs lady.
She phoned the apartment company people to complain to them about my aircon. The apartment people then phone my boss, who then has to forward the message on to me. GRR.
Now the problem I understand and sympathize with. It turns out that the condensation water from my aircon is dripping onto her balcony. Now I understand why this can be a problem as it is a tiny balcony and we use them to hang our clothes on but what I want to know is......;
WHY THE HELL didn't she just knock on our damn door and tell us!!!! Instead we now have yet another strike on a tallying list that I am sure the damn apartment people keep!!! This lady has talked to both of us before and knows that Li speaks excellent Japanese. WHY!!??? I now have the desire to wash my tiny balcony and let it drip allllllll over her!!!
So Li has today as a holiday and I called him and told him to inspect the damn thing for a hose of some sort that needs to be moved.
ugh
