It’s not as big of a **** move as my neighbor firing up his mower at 6AM on a Saturday last summer.
Overall snowfall didn't appear too burdensome (Polk City). BUT hell, I don't remember heavier snow than this. I cleared the driveway last night (around 9pm) thinking I'd get some of the heavy stuff out of the way. That was not the case this morning; still heavy and wet.
I definitely quoted this scene when I came in to the house. The family did not find it hysterical like I did. Told my son come out and watch later for round 2 while I put all the snow from our driveway onto the weirdo neighbor guy’s roof.
I told my parents to buy an EGO, so they did. Now they are going to return it today. It did half of their drive and sidewalk before it died and they just have a normal suburban corner lot. The neighbors ended up finishing up for them.
Fo shizzle, can’t miss the 7AM tee time.Well sometimes you have to mow to get the car out of the garage.
I used my gas-powered snowblower at around 6:30 this morning so the wife could get out for work. It was having a hard time in spots. I'm glad I got an initial pass through because I'm not sure it would have made it through all of it if I waited until it was done.
my snowblower got a workout this morning with that heavy snow. I almost killed it clearing the end of my driveway.
Yep, batteries charged after opening it up yesterday. It was the 1500 dollar two stage from ace.
ended up helping the neighbor shovel her driveway after I cleared mine and put the snowblower away. They have a snowblower but her husband wasn't there and he forgot to fill the snowblower with gas. If I would have known that is what it needed, I would have filled it up for her. At least I got a workout.
That right there is an ******* neighbor. There is simply no excuse for that.
I get people being unsure of getting a battery snowblower but your standard DSM/Ames quarter acre flat lot can easily be done using a battery mower. (Much more quiet)
The snowfall in Indianola right now is pretty freaking intense. Has been most of the morning.
I've done it before, not by choice. It rained all week and I was leaving for vacation - it was either mow super early once the rain stopped or my yard was going to look like **** for a whole week while I was gone.
That’s when you hire someone to do it and not ruin your neighbors weekend. Don’t make your problem their problem.
Also, am I an ******* for getting mad at my neighbors for doing my walk? I have a snowblower that I enjoy using, so don't take that away from me!
I would never let them know I'm upset, and will thank them when I see them, but internally I'm mad.
