I think the only good thing about having done 28 years of shift work is that
those things become transparent.

Yet another problem with society these days - you get so pissed off at
your
neighbor but you won't go talk to him about it first. Maybe he doesn't
realize
he's being a jerk to his neighbors, or maybe his neighbors don't
understand it's
the only time he has available to take care of his yard.
But nobody knows anything because nobody's talking to the guy who lives
next door!
Can't speak for anyone else, but I (and everyone else on the block)
have definitely talked to MY idiot leaf-blowing neighbor. He's just
an insensitive cretin with a serious case of OCD that compels him to
fire up the leaf-blower (AND the mower, AND the power edger, etc.)
every day so as to keep his lawn looking like a putting green.
And then the moron has the gall to plaster his Suburban with "support
our troops" magnets...
