Default What would you do?

My neighbor came over to ask me, if I could be a little more quiet when I
come home. Apparently, he doesn't like the sound of my vehicle coming up
the drive, or the garage door opening and closing. I get home about 3 in
the morning, I drive a car with a quiet muffler, and there's absolutely
nothing wrong with my garage door!

This coming from a guy with a stack of lawnmowers in his back yard, tarps
all over the place, plywood laying around. Basically, he has a dump! I
know one of the neighbors called the city on him.

Besides holding myself back from punching this idiot in the face, I'm
about to join the rest of the neighbors, in an effort to run this jerk out
of town.

What would you do?


You have a few options.
Change jobs to one with hours that coincide with his sleep time
Buy a new car
Leave the car in the driveway
Offer to soundproof his bedroom windows

My favorite is:
Smile, thank him for letting you know of the problem, and then ignore the
SOB.
