In a story that highlights the importance of thoroughly reading any document before you sign it, even if you initially wrote it, a tenant in the United States has added his own stipulation to his lease after discovering it was sent in an editable word document reports Domain.
The cheeky lessee refrained from adding in anything too wild or crazy, but instead went for something delicious – cake.
Reddit user GloriousGherkins added this clause to their lease –
16. BIRTHDAY CAKE: Lessor shall provide birthday cake for Lessee(s) on the weekend closest to their birthdays, which are June 7th and February 17th. Vanilla cake is not acceptable.
There were no further stipulations or conditions, no mention of what was preferential to vanilla cake.
Some followers on imgur questioned the choice of cake flavour, while others suggested it’s not legally binding, but GloriousGherkins insists that it’s now in the signed contract and they expect a birthday cake.
