Had to write a report on a coworker for taking too long of breaks, not helping close the area after we're done and possibly smelling of booze the only problem is he is my ex-landlord and I use him as a positive reference when looking for rentals and with my current landlord I get in arguments

about the place not being properly insulated for winter (as well as load of other problems) but I get to stick around as I'm quiet and pay my rent on time, don't think that would be a good reference to use despite having a good paper trail of paying rent. Now that I'm going to be looking for rentals

soon, who should I use as references? Or are they not that big of deal and I should not worry?

Last time I asked my head or dept at work to be a good character reference for a rental as I’d not rented for many years so had no previous landlord to ask.

Have you had any situation that can be comparable to apartment renting?

I’m renting now, my boss was my reference.

Other than now.

Just something that shows you are a reliable person and not a problem tenant.
