I love being a Resident Manager. Yes you do get your idiots.

Yes! I love being a resident manager. In fact, it is the best job I have ever had and I have worked in many different jobs and for many years.
There is always an idiot or 2 - Judge Judy said that 1 in 3 people is an idiot, but I think it is closer to 2 out of 3! If we are lucky, the worst people will be renters and we can get them out. Effective 7/1/06, the Association can evict renters if the owner won't cooperate. That is good news for us. Keep going to all the meetings, MRMA (www.mrma.org), ARM, CAI, any trade show or pro show. This is where you learn other manager's experiences, and the new products available. And, usually, you get a lot of free stuff! See you there!

I want to find out more about MRMA and training throught his program. Does anyone have information regarding this issue?
I am a Resident Manager who has worked nine years as a condo manager. Now I am a manager for a townhouse complex and would love to get certified.
Being a Resident Manager takes the patience of Job and the ability to keep your mouth closed when you need to. Sometimes getting caught up in the gossip can get you burned. What are your thoughts?
