The Lawn Dart

[Jake]

i hate oversensitive neighbors but trust me, when i had an infant in the house that HAD to sleep there's a definite line of what amount of noise i was willing to tolerate as "normal" (although that was an HOA neighborhood).  

Ohh man. I got home from Summit a few weekends ago and was unloading my trailer in my apartment complex. I got the car unloaded (and it's actually fairly quiet, has a muffler, etc) and am about to head out to park the trailer when I hear this "HEY!" I look up and some guy is hanging out his 4th-floor window and starts absolutely screaming at me about how I just woke up his sleeping baby. Keep in mind this was at 6:45 PM on a Sunday and the loudest noise was unhooking the straps as they clang against the trailer for a second.

I apologized because I know newborns sleep approximately never and he was probably just exhausted, but like... he lives in a complex of 5-6 story buildings with neighbors of all ages and interests packed on top of each other. Noise happens, especially on a weekend afternoon. I just said I was sorry and left, but my neighbor was also outside (who thinks the racecar is cool AF) and apparently tore him a new one and then reported him to the leasing office.
