I'd be inclined to give those guys a little bit of a break.
When I lived in an apartment, I didn't own a pump suitable for emptying a flooded basement.
Even if one of them did have a pump, where would they get the power to run it?
1. How did I fail and let myself get in this situation?
2. Now, how will I survive and get out of this situation,
3. What will I do to prevent this ever happening again.
I'm just being a hard-assed...as I think I have planned for most any situation that can happen.
Because....It's Always Something. (IAS)
