In the middle of August heat, Koll decided to redo the roof on our building and shut off the AC in our office. Our office was 92 degrees inside and, due to the fresh tar being poured, smelled like ASPHALT. I could not even walk through the door because the stench was so toxic. It was 100% unsafe to work in and we were forced to work from home.

That went on for a week and a half, plus another week and a half of loud drilling. We're a call center and that's completely inappropriate.

We asked for a break on half our rent since we were essentially kicked out for two weeks (the drilling went on for a month) and they said no. They weren't nice about it either. I can't believe that something like this would happen. Shame on you Koll.

**Update mid-September
The rooftop construction is still going. They pressure washed the roof today without giving us any warning. It is LOUD. We are a call center, and this is so inappropriate. Plus, it wreaks in here now! This is seriously so ridiculous.

Oh, and we still have no blinds, so the office is heating up even more. No AC + no blinds = 88 degrees in here and UNACCEPTABLE.

Suggestions for Koll:
1. Stop treating your tenants like dirt
2. NOTIFY YOUR TENANTS when construction is happening
3. STOP TURNING OFF THE AC UNIT in the MIDDLE OF SUMMER
4. COMPENSATE us for the fact that our office is uninhabitable because of your decision to do construction above our heads
5. Please, just start to care.
