What's wrong with mowing at 8am any day of the week? Maybe with the exception of New Years Day? I would be happy that my neighbor was maintaining their property. I suppose they have fewer rights because they don't own as much land.

Some people who work during the week like to sleep in on the weekend and consider it rude to use machinery before a certain hour.

I don't understand the logic that whoever was in a particular area first automagically gets to define acceptable behavior, common sense & decency. That is what is being done if you try to fit in with idiots just because they preceded you. What is their argument, "If you didn't want to put up with idiots, you shouldn't have moved here." ?

Fortunately I don't have neighbor problems. My sympathy to those who do though.


+1 and what is worse is those people that are in violation of local ordinances!

Some people who work seven days a week and are barely able to squeeze in mowing time consider it rude to whine about interrupted naps.

I'm not going to argue with you. You asked, "what's wrong". I told you.

Much of this debate has less to do with where one is from (country vs city) and more to do with common sense, common decency, and common respect. It has more to do with HOW one was raised, rather than where one was raised.

Don't even get me going on common sense and the like, as it's been said, "common sense isn't all that common."

And some people work both... It's also better for your body to keep a consistent internal clock. You're lucky I'm not mowing at 6am because that's when I'm showered and ready to go....I'd wait until 8am to be civil.

You're the dust bowl king. Which one is more rude?

I wait till 9am to fire up anything, my one neighbor and his wife are pretty good friends of ours, they have said that they can't even hear me unless they are sitting on their deck. My other neighbor, I really don't care either way, he's has chainsaws running at 6am sometimes.Between him and his 2 mutts I'm not sure who is more stunned. We should start a thread about other people's dogs, I bet there is alot of stories.
