UPDATE: we ended up moving to that 667 apt with hydro hydro heat and hot water rental, we've managed to keep our hydro down by freezing thru winter, and by turning off the water heater during the day when "time of use billing" would make it skyrocket.
We also fought and managed to win back our deposit money thanks to me doing a bit of research and finding precedent for the way they did it. They did something that was not allowed :).
Are we out of the woods yet? not really....no. James is now working for a company that doesn't have an AMO (which is a fancy term for someone who can take him as an apprentice). He will not get any credit for hours spent (since manufacturing generally doesn't count towards avionics apprenticeships) and will likely end up finally getting an apprenticeship by the time he will have to take 4yrs to complete it instead of the 2 he earned by working so hard in school for. It frustrates me that people seem to think that a fully licenced AME-E is going to magically appear for their company without having had an apprentice TRAIN first then pass their exams. Makes me angry sometimes. He's a good, hard worker, and everyone demands a driver's licence, something he never learned and we couldn't afford a car even if he got.
