That would be great but what’s the expected outcome in your point of view?

I have about 40% of my sound capacity taken up by tinnitus, constant "beeeeeeeeep" sound , since I was born, thus I'm still wondering.
Most of the time I have hard time understanding what people around me say, using normal voice. I get lots of feedback that I'm "yelling". But every single loud thing , is clear to me.

What if management tows the car just before you arrive home? Do you circle your apartment in a holding pattern for a few hours?

That sounds like a good outcome. Sure, it’ll be a repeat hassle, but at least multiple assholes will get some comeuppance.

Your ear canals are disigned to be open. If you keep them constantly obstructed, you will develop an ear infection.

You are assuming everyone has the same level of hearing. There is people with hearing loss around you without you even noticing. For those people an alarm might be just "right", not too loud.

I'm so glad I don't live in an apartment and have to worry about this shit anymore.

What is the point of having someone towed if you're going to park somewhere else anyway?
If I have a reserved spot, I'm parking there. That's the point of reserved parking.
If they want to blame me, that's fine. The spot is clearly marked "Reserved: Violators will be towed" If they damage my car, well it's all on camera.

If you don’t immediately park in it, someone else will, making your effort worthless. Then you’ve got to sort out towing someone else.

They sale really cheap cleaning kits. Little spray bottle with a flexible nozzle on the end. Warm water alone works great. A few drops of earwax softener works for harder wax even a little hydrogen peroxide can be used.

So far I have had 2 doctors perform the same procedure on me. That leads me to believe it's safe. You feel similar as going to the deep end of a pool and the ear gets full of water. It is uncomfortable but so far no damage.

so you're saying that there are earplugs in existence that would mute alarm sounds? extremely high pitched noises? best I've ever achieved even with noise cancelling in-ear was muffling outside world A BIT, never ever it stopped ALL noise from coming. How would that be even possible?

Are you sure that's not dangerous for the ear drums?

Just the plastic so that it fits on the opening of the ear canal and you can push the water directly inside it with as much pressure as possible

Just ghost them. Nothing wrong with that. You owe nobody an explanation either
