Neighbor FREAKS OUT and THREATENS to CALL THE COPS on me
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 2 мар 2023
- This neighbor wasn't having the noise my equipment was making and came over pretty angry! He suggested I use hand tools instead 😂. Well, I definitely was not expecting this interaction today and it caught me way off guard. I had to hurry up and finish though, because he threatened to call the cops if I didn't get out of there soon...

Thanks for putting your location in your channel description. I like to know where people are and in some channels I have to try and read license plates to see what state we’re in. Great channel. I will subscribe right now.
I would have told him, "please do call the cops" and see if they fine him for making a frivolous complaint.
You handled that neighbour well, and thank you for doing this as there's always a need 😊
What time of day was that? Everybody is expected be puttering around their property by 8 AM at least. Having been a day sleeper for most of my life I never could complain about noise in the neighbourhood. Lawn care being one of them. Let him call the cops. They would have an issue if you were blasting music and carousing being a nuisance, but lawn care? Seriously? The cops would get a laugh I'm sure.
Another reason to turn nomad when I retire. Too old, poor and unfit to take care of a lawn to your standards for one, but if having a neighbour like that I can always move.
@@dallasarnold8615 Maybe should have offered to call the waaaa-mbulance for the guy...
I’m a police officer and I hate when neighbors use us for scare tactics. If I was called I would just tell you to call us if he came over and harassed you again. I would of told him to stay on his side of the fence and let you be. It’s not criminal to do yard work and help the citizens who need help. Thank you for what you do sir.
he's doing what any decent civic minded kind person would do.
@10-42 Gamer, first off, thanks for your service. Secondly, I just commented saying the cops can't and won't do anything to him.
The other guy on the other hand, 😂🤣 I'd call the cops on him if he came back out again and kept harassing me.
Thank you officer glad you live in this neighborhood, good to know you see him for what he is.
if anything they owner of the home could have been in trouble from the neighbors complaining they live next to an unkept lawn
@@dubemccready7438 where does it say he lives in the neighborhood?
Threatening to call the cops is idiotic. They aren't going to do anything. Noise ordinance is only for evening hours not daytime. That guy was a tool!
"Hey I'm gonna call the cops and get you arrested because your baby is crying while I'm trying to nap!" --Him, probably
But listening to that noise all day long is very annoying, what if neighbors have to learn something or want to listen to something, they have to waste whole day because Spencer wants to make a video and he is doing that noise continuously for a few hours
When you are planning doing noisy stuff which can annoy neighbors you have to warn then first and ask it is ok or agree on a specific time to do it
@@gigagigaa9696 no one cares!!!!!!!!!
Either way that yard needed and if he didn’t do it then keeps getting longer and when it is done will take even longer.
Tell the cry ass neighbor to do it then. Not like it takes more than an hour to just mow.
You don’t have to warn anyone, if it’s daytime they can get over it
Why didn’t that neighbour go over and help his neighbour every so often doing his yard work and then there would be no noise concern? Too selfish to help and too controlling to allow someone to help his neighbour. That guy needs to get a life! I love what you do for those who are unable to do their yard work and to clean up the neighbourhood. You have a heart of gold and we need more people like you in this world.
Bet the same bully neighbours complain about how overgrown next door is getting, Take a headache pill !!!
You nailed it, no one likes to be shown up
Why do you think the yard looks so bad? 😂
Exactly! A good neighbor would have noticed his neighbor was having a hard time keeping up on his lawn and giving him a hand
I bet the same neighbour complains about the messy yard. You do great work, don't let them get you down, your kindness and hard work is inspirational!
Exactly what I was thinking!
He was probably jealous his neighbor was getting free yard work lol
My thoughts exactly. The neighbors that complain usually are the more sensitives ones that quote the Law they happily break daily. They seem to think they are the 'exception'. I also use power tools and would go to this person's yard and do his lawn IF they were to come at me like this since he seems to love them so much!
I had a situation like this back in high school. I worked for a lawn care company. One afternoon we were mowing someone’s yard and the neighbor complained we were being “excessively loud” and called the cops on us. When the cop showed up he told us how nice the yard looked and asked if we could do his yard the next day😂
That’s awesome! 😂
Love it!!!
You mean they didn't show up to kill you indiscriminately because of your race?!? Wow. The Internet tells me that ALL cops are killers and are looking for a reason to kill.
Great job.
Blessings that’s for calling my clients
Disappointed that the police didn’t come. Would have loved to see the neighbor explain that he called the cops because his neighbor was having his lawn done 😂
He probably called and was told by the dispatcher there is nothing they can do about noise during daylight hours.
Honestly. He's been authorized to do the work by the homeowner. The neighbors have no say. And this was a Monday morning so most of the working class would be at work anyway
I was thinkin the same thing!!!!!!
@Dry Water yeah exactly. Monday morning is working time for most people.
Freaking lawn has not been mowed in months and the single day it is finally being done the d-bag neighbor cries about it like a prototypical Karen?
I am glad the cops do not show up to obvious non-violations.
That was real chicken of that neighbor to threaten you with calling the cops instead of taking this up with the homeowner. You weren't breaking any noise ordinances; and I'm sure cops have bigger things to worry about than his headache (which was likely from of a hangover). You were doing good stuff... don't let empty threats stop you!!!
That's exactly right. No noise ordinances broken nor was the worker going out of his way to antagonise anyone with the noise. I mean continuing to use the leaf blower after everything was spotless etc just to get under the neighbors skin or something.
Bless your heart for doing this for free!
Shame on that bully. I’ll bet when he was a child he didn’t play well with the others.
He still IS a child.
April 6, 2024-Some people are just not happy for others. Alcohol can be a big factor with any confrontation. May many more thank you messages come your way! Keep up the great work and keep being very positive. You are a kind and thoughtful soul.😊 Those who believe that the next generations don’t care are wrong. Times have changed for us all.
😁
Something tells me he still hasn't grown up.
When you're threatening a guy who mows strangers houses for free, it's safe to assume you're the bad guy
There is no bad guys, only sad and suffering guys
@@alexnewman5101 that wasnt a "sad and suffering guy".
Just a pathetic asshole who decided to pass out on beer the previous night and thinks everyone should stop their lifes because he has a alcohol migraine
@@alexnewman5101 no no.
He’s a fucking bad guy
I think the actual technical term is douche bag.
LOL ...SO TRUE!
I'm a cop (5 years). You aren't doing anything you'd be in trouble for. If I got that call along with most cops I know would tell the guy there's nothing he can do about it and that you are 100% in the right. If it was a slow day I'd even stick around and support you :)
Keep up the good work!
SB is TOO nice!!! I'd say something to the effect of "Let me do you a favor, and call em myself." Then I wouldn't actually call them, just act like I am and say "I'm mowing some ladies lawn, and some guy is harassing me, saying I'm making too much noise... He seems intoxicated." Then hang up the call that never happened, and let him know he should probably scram cuz the feddys are on their way!
@@BeauMedasexactly what I said!!! I definitely wouldn’t have been as polite in my response to the hungover mouthy fool!
I bet if the camera wasn’t rolling he would’ve been a little more like “WTF do you want?” 😂
Nice!. thnaks
Even if he called the cops, there's nothing against the law in what you're doing. It's not too early in the morning nor too late at night. It's not overly loud. It's his own fault that he had a hangover. The cops would tell both you and him that you could keep doing what you were doing until you were finished with the job.
I have laundry stacked up, shopping and dishes waiting for me… yet, here I am watching you for a 1/2 hour doing yard work. Why is it so satisfying?
Me too 😂
I wish I new why.❤❤❤❤❤
My husband and neighbor across the street both traded off mowing the yard of the elderly woman next door for about 20 years. Hardly a word was spoken between them about it. If one of them was mowing and her yard needed it, they just quietly did it. She always had a can of soda and a couple cookies for them. ❤
The small spirited people who complain about such noise during non- curfew hours, especially when it’s a benefit to the entire street, are the last ones who’d ever help out.
As a former police officer myself, I will tell you this. Do not ever worry about a jerk like that. There is no crime being committed by your doing yard work. BTW, If a crime would’ve been committed here it would be the neighbor harassing you! keep up the great work. I’m sure the sane people in these neighborhoods really appreciate you and all that you do. ❤
Not sure how it is in the US, but in my country, the only potential crime for doing this would be either tresspassing (assuming you do it without the home owner approval, something Spencer never does AFAIK), or doing it very early or very late (our country has a limit on noise before 7am and after 10pm).
I really don't see how someone could even think of threatening to call the cops for that, in the middle of the day. At most you could go ask nicely telling there's a lot of noise and trying to negotiate how to limit the nuisance, but threatening with the cops is just dumb.
@@daedalron In Canada and the USA we have harassment laws. That means, the neighbors can be charged for two things depending on which State (US) or Province (Canada) this is taking place; harassing a person and/or wasting taxpayers money on Police Services by calling in Police. In fact, in Canada, Police can now issue a ticket to cover "recover taxpayer money" for wasting their time in some areas. That could be up to like $5000 CAD.
It was kinda noisey but what time was it? After 10.30am is fine but early Sunday mornings a little inconsiderate and there are laws on noise pollution...the decibels were definately up there.
F the bully Karen neighbour threatening people with police however!!✌️✌️Nice job!!
GOD BLESS YOU Son. The neighbor had no business coming to you period for blessing that resident for doing what GOD LOVES, helping each other. I happy to see what the officers said about him harassing you.
@@daedalron That is EXACTLY how it is here in the US
As a former police officer myself, I just want echo what others have said. You are not the problem at all. That neighbor was completely out of line by threatening to call the police. He should have stayed in his house. Thank you for remaining calm and not turning that into something completely unnecessary and negative. Your help and the work you do is truly a godsend!!! Don’t let anyone tell you otherwise!!! Keep up the great work!!! I love watching the transformation you create.
Yeah, I woulda been negative lol
👍
❤
Far as I can tell; just the kind of guy we could work with at The American Legion! If your parents or grandparents served in the military, you are eligible to join "The Legion". We had a young electrician who did some work at our house who's dad was in the service, but was an alcoholic, and so was this son of his. This young electrician had some ambition but had a DWI and was needing to do some community service time, so I recommended him to the A.L. and he worked off some time doing electrical work for the Legion.
Exactly 💯!! I'd like to see the completely SILENT lawn mower and weed wacker that neighbor uses on his lawn BTW 😮😂🎉
Calling the cops on something like this is equivalent to “I’m telling Mom!”
Keep up the great work, Spencer !!
It's no wonder the neighbours have overgrown yards - the intolerant (hungover) guy across the road threatens to "call the cops" each time the gardeners are working! Where I live you are permitted to make noise between 7am to 7pm weekdays. By the by, the work you do is marvellous. Bless you!
As someone who suffers from migraines, I guarantee this jackass's headache wasn't actually that bad, because if it was, he'd be laying in bed in the dark, unable to move, with his blinds drawn and earplugs in. Keep doing you, man. Don't let this moron get you down.
Damn Skippy. Forgot walking outside in the sun. I can't even stand to see an LED clock when I'm having an attack.
Yes! This! I hate when people throw around the term "migraine" so loosely. I can't even get up off the bed to tell someone I have a migraine when I'm having one, let alone go outside in the bright sun and confront someone about noise. 🤢🤮
Yep. When he made the noise I knew he didn't have one. And he wasn't protecting his eyes from the sun.
Exactly. I've had migraines since I was 15. I'm 54 now. Sometimes they've lasted 4 days.
Exactly. Who has the energy to go outside when they have a bad headache or migraine. Let alone confront someone who's just doing there job. More like he was still drunk from the night before
Being in law enforcement, calls like this are one of our biggest annoyances. I would end up having a nice talk with the caller about waste of police resources, misuse of 911, and a crime called public menacing. Keep up the good work, young man!
Fines should be given out to callers wasting police’s time.
@@hagridlemonhead611 in some places there are actually, when my brother was little , like 3 or 4 years old, he dialed 911 and hung up the police showed up to my moms house and they told her they received a call and she said my brother called they told her if it happened again we would be fined for wasting the police time this was in Las Vegas
Totally Agree and To You n ALL of Our Public Service Hero's THANK YOU FOR ALL THAT YOU DO TO HELP, PROTECT n KEEP US SAFE AS POSSIBLE❤🙏🙅♀️🙌
Would you even show up? Here in central Cali cops don’t show up for light stuff like this. Prob have more important stuff they’re on. Not bashing
@Jesus Bejar I definitely would, mainly because I've seen way too many "unnecessary calls" turn into assaults, stabbings, and worse. You just never know.
People like him need to get proactive at helping others in their communities and neighbours instead of leaving it to others. God bless you for what you do.
I’m watching after the fact… the Mr from across the way… “Why don’t you help instead of complaining?”
As a 50+ woman, I clean the corner grasses of the neighbourhood next to our fence, & the one across the road, to keep the neighbourhood looking sweet… the council(UK) cut grass leave the clippings, bleach the tree bottoms & road signs with chemicals & nothing else… I do it because I want to & love gardening & making it look tidy & nice for all to see…
The guy needs to get out more or find a hobby & stop complaining
Great work 🤛🏼 love your videos SBmowing 💚
Don't let that guy tell you what you can and can't do. People like him are what is wrong with this world today.
Got to be a Trump magot
@@judgejurylw1026Definitely a Democrat neighborhood! It was the Republican who did the work!
@@deepseadweller687 I guess you never been to West Virginia, Miss, Arkansas, or Kentucky, and i am no way knocking poor people, but how come all these states are Republican, but the point i am making, there are neighborhoods after neighborhood , filled up with house yards just like the ones you see on videos, i don;t know what party the gentleman is who cuts the grass, but i would dam sure make a bet with you that 80% of the bad yards belong to a Trump magot, just by the way they look, comparing to the people who go to his rallies.
you're the magot who voted for a worm.@@judgejurylw1026
@@judgejurylw1026What the f*&k does Trump have to do with this? Believe it or not,not everything in life is attributed to political affiliation Lol. Trump is no longer president; maybe it's time to move on eh.
Imagine being an irresponsible adult telling a younger RESPONSIBLE person to be quieter because you're hungover. 😂
Exactly! Very well put.
Poor baby had too much beer and nachos.. his bloated belly don't like noise. Love this landscaping kid
Exactly! The audacity! The nerve! Dude’s out there doing backbreaking work and improving your neighborhood and you come rolling out like some pig full of lethargy and threats. Some folks need a punch in the mouth.
@@jamie.777 🤣👍
🤦🏻♂️some ppl now days
How sad is his life that he can only feel better about himself by being miserable to law abiding charitable generous people. Sad. Keep up the great work you do! 💕🇨🇦
You got 10 minutes or I'm going to call the cops. I don't know where you are from. I'm from Canada. There's nothing cops can ever do about noise between 7am and 11pm. This guy's logic about noise during the day is pitiful. So you gave yourself a hangover who fault is that? Man up buttercup take some Tylenol, eat something and drink lots of water. Your feelings will never trump the law.
Don't rush for anyone sir. Take your time and do what you do. You're doing a great job helping people out and making lawns look amazing. Keep it up
You are so right. My family help our wonderful neighbor, and care about our neighbors. No one complains. All the neighbors help each other, and I can not imagine any other way. God bless this man for stopping and being generous with his time. ❤
You should encourage these people to call the cops. As a former cop myself, I would congratulate you on doing a great job on keeping the neighborhood clean and tidy and not to mention, even keeping the value of his property high by having his neighbors yards kept in good order. Well done... Great job!
Yes, my thoughts exactly. No, it isn't any fun when you don't feel well and there is some kind of noisy work going on. As a Stage 4 cancer patient, I have much room to speak. BUT... It is not only totally lawful to do yard and various kinds of home improvement during the daytime, but it helps keep the value of the neighborhood up!
@@TedNewkirk I'm really sorry to hear you are going through a bad time. My prayers are with you. ❤
By helping this person, you are helping the whole neighborhood, and maybe preventing crime. Crooks look for under kepted property as an easy mark for a break-in, thinking it belongs to older people, or vacant. The police would not bother a person doing yard work, and might tell the Karen, if he starts any trouble that more than likely he will be the one getting into trouble.
❤️
@@TedNewkirk Just have noise cancelling headphones.
I would've loved to hear that call to the local PD or 911.
"Hello, dispatch? There's a guy out here mowing lawns!"
"...yea?"
"Well he's making noise, and I got drunk!"
"...yea?"
"So I want a unit sent out here immediately."
"For...what?"
"Beacause he's making noise while I have a hangover!"
"Sir, I'm going to hang up now."
fr tho. wtf would this guy even say to the dispatcher. he has EVERY right to be out there. PLUS he threatened him which hindered his work!
Exactly!!!
I could watch that all day 😂😂😂
Nah more like “Sir this line is for emergencies only and a unit will be sent out to issue you a citation for abuse of a emergency line, have a nice day *click*”
😅
I think you and others doing this service for people is really valuable. Lot of people on fixed income, disabled, or elderly cannot take care of their lawns and cannot afford to pay someone to do it. It’s really nice to see you doing this kind of work. I just cannot imagine being the neighbor going on a bender the night before and expecting the entire neighborhood to bed to their will to be quiet just because they are hungover. Talk about entitlement.
Spencer. Don't worry about the Karen's you run into. He probably needs your help and too proud to as for it. WE live your work, and pray for your safety all the time, so, don't worry. Prayers are covering you, and other lawn care guys and families, everyday. God bless you for all the times you have found a great recipient of your service. Thank you❤
As a chronic migraine sufferer, I realize that part of the price of living in a neighborhood is common neighborhood sounds: kids playing, music blaring, airplanes flying, landscaping. If I wanted total silence, I’d move to the sticks. Thanks for all you do and God bless!
Earplugs are an option as well.
@@anitamiller7960 Well yes but living with earplugs in your own home is kinda sad. You don't buy an expensive home to live with earplugs, you buy it to live in tranquility without earplugs.
@@biglittleboy9827 so how are we gonna live: everyone staying quiet and put for one person, or one person putting in earplugs? Above me live neighbours with little kids who constantly jump. A ceiling fell on me whilst asleep because of all the jumping throughout the years. Life is full of moments that we just have to live through.
Also people who have migraines absolutely must investigate them and make it their #1 priority.
@@biglittleboy9827move to the country. Problem solved.
I live in the country & depending on the weather & wind direction , often hear the neighbors mowing , etc. I just tell myself that it's good they keep their yards & homes so nice plus do extra mowing of the ditches & along the roadsides (even tho' it's the township's responsibility ) . All caring so much has created a sense of community on our road ! 🥰 Most add flowers around their mailboxes for accents of interest & color . 🌻🌹 A lovely middle class rural neighborhood !
Neighbor: you got 10 min to finish or I'm calling the cops. Spencer...proceeds to take a 10 min breather, then finishes. 😂 You are awesome Spencer. Making neighborhoods look nicer one yard at a time.
Next time he comes over, grab the chainsaw 😎
What a goon, ppl can be so hateful and rude! You keep on doing wat u do best, God has your back. God bless you, Spencer. ❤
That guy was an idiot threatening to call the cops!!! Wow … I guess there’s one in every neighborhood!!
Keep up your amazing work!!
The neighbor who threatened to call police is an example of a person that others don't want to live next to in any neighborhood. What you are doing to help others is inspiring.
I used to live in a certain neighborhood for my whole life until we moved pretty far but I had a neighbor who everyone hated and wanted out of the neighborhood I lived straight infront of him and he literally was the type of person to stare at you from you're window if you're outside minding you're own business and other shit caused so much drama with the neighbors broke into people's houses destroyed people's property's, We believed he slit my sisters bike seek and slashed our pool... and he literally yelled at anyone for being on the sidewalk infront of his house, a PUBLIC sidewalk and he ended up getting evicted and then him and his wife trashed the building, I feel bad for the landlord and the officers who had to tell him to knock it off. I wouldn't be surprised if his (at the time) 6 and 3 year old grow up to be as bad as him or worse.
karen is his name
Preach, you didn't say a single thing that wasn't true.
Neighbors like that don't want anyone else's lawn looking better than their's. I bet if he offered to do his yard he'd STFU.
Owning a house in a neighborhood with a bunch of renters is not the same as when everyone owns their home.
I love how he tells you that you have 10 minutes, as if he has any kind of tangible authority to enforce that.
Fudge body boy was there clearly with no work ethic on a Monday
lol, right!?
He should have hung around awhile afterwards and waited for the blow-hard to bring the cops.
Exactly what I was thinking…. Ridiculousness.🤦🏽♀️
😂😂😂
What a great guy to help this homeowner!! That was a tremendous amount of work!
What’s he going to call the cops for? Report his headache? It’s not against the law to do yard work the day after the Super Bowl 😂
Great after pictures, you are such a blessing ❤
No cop is going to issue a ticket or arrest someone for doing yardwork in the middle of the day. Thats insane.
It's the power he fill his whiteness wields. The police are his weapon. They do his dirty work at his beckoned call, and after they gun you down, his hands are clean. Brown people don't think like that. It's a white privilege.
Well have you seen some of the shit they arrest people for? Nothing is below them imo
Could order a trespassing citation?
@@KevinA-ow3yv uh no as the owner of the house let him cut the yard
Look at the long shadows at the start. It's morning, and not any morning - the morning after the NFL finals match at the Superbowl. A LOT of usually early risers are taking that morning off to catch up after celebrations. Spencer is within the law - but really kinda insensitive to the specific day with the volume of his gear.
I worked for a police department for 27.5 years and NEVER did we answer a call for someone doing yard work. What the heck does that goofball do when any of his other neighbors do their yards?
Definitely be aware of your surroundings for idiots like him but don’t let that scare you.
Great 👍 job!!!
He was probably hungover,no job and wife works to support him
@@lisaperry5999 I am sure he was late on a few payments as well lol
watch youtube more then u will find many such complain especially from the great county of America..where u will find many weird n funny things to be complain and called the police.
Alternative reaction, which I experienced once in France in vacation:
the police was called, they came around and after listening to the _anger_ of the caller, they told *him* they can take him to their office, after asking the gardener, how long it will take to finish his work, to bring the caller back home, afterwards.
The caller was ... how, should I say? ... very mad to the police officers, by verbally abused them, who arrested him as a result.
I don't know how it is in the USA, but anyone who insults a police officer in many European countries, risks 2 years in prison plus an additional hefty fine.
Even gestures like the middle-finger or else, are recognized as insults.
@@Freddy2TakeOffYeah, France totally isn’t an authoritarian police state or anything. While I like the sentiment of the story that the heckler caller who was causing problems got what he deserved, any country who makes it a prison worthy crime to flip off a public servant are tyrannical in nature. The riots in France going on now and for the last month are quietly being suppressed by the French state, and I applaud the French people for historically not being afraid to bring the axe down on their leaders if they aren’t serving their countrymen. Of course this tangent wasn’t directed at you, I just find it ridiculous that other citizens of western 1st world country’s aren’t truly free.
As a trucker I've dealt with so many people like that I've lost count. I usually just tell them "okay" and then continue on with my business. You're a better man than me here though. I don't think I have the self control not to try and make a fool out of this guy.
I probably cry if I come home from somewhere and my yard looks like this. You are a kind person for doing this for those who are unable. May God Bless you!!!!
You are too kind. I would have laughed out loud and encouraged him to go ahead and call. Speaking as a retired police officer I can tell you they will do NOTHING but tell him to go back inside and get over himself. LOL
Honestly, I would have instantly replied, “Don’t wait 10 minutes; call now.” And then I would have went on minding my business.
@Aussie Pom speaking as a retired police officer, no, they would not charge him. Nobody's wasting the court's time with that. There's no charge. It wouldn't hold water. What I can tell you is that it would likely be an extremely long response time, to the point that by the time we arrived, Spencer would be done. Either by answering considerably more serious calls first or finishing our very long breakfast. Very, very long. On the other hand, if you have a good enough dispatcher, they would talk the guy out of a response indicating that there's really no complaint that the police can adjust.
I am a retired State Trooper and one night I received a call about a guy mowing his lawn at 1:00 AM in a house trailer subdivision. When I arrived he was mowing on a riding mower with lights and had about 2 more swipes to make. He said his neighbors kept complaining about his long grass, and he told them he was going to cut it the following Saturday when he was off from work, that he had been working a lot of overtime. When he came in from work around 11:00 PM his wife told him a couple of more neighbors complained so he decided to take care of the problem. I just kind of laughed and told him not to mow at 1:00 AM anymore. He said that he thought by doing it at 1:00 AM it might shut them up and that he is still going to mow the yard again on Saturday.
@@johnflechler263 That´s hilarious! lol
@@johnflechler263 Awesome
That guy is a jerk. You had permission from the owner. He thinks the world revolves around him. I would’ve told him,” I’ll save you the trouble and call them for you for harassing me.” You are a wonderful person to help the home owner with the yard. 💗
Exactly.
Paid or not he is there by invitation of the home owner so he has as much legal right to make a noise trimming the spot as the home owner themselves.
No doubt the pr1ck has no restraint when calling out a contractor or doing it himself.

It's always astonishing how miserable and pathetic some people are. Amazing work ethic. The world needs more like you!.
I'm sure we can understand how annoying the sound of a powerful weed whacker can be. Imagine not having ear protection and listening to it for several hours. Then, we dismiss someone as miserable because they don't want to listen to 95db+ for protracted periods of time. Cleaning a yard IS great, and it NEEDED to be done.

However, It is not his yard it’s his neighbor’s yard, it’s during the day so he’s not waking anyone up unless they do night shift, and it might be annoying sure but they have every right to clean/upkeep their yard. I have no sympathy for that guy.
@@jeremylindsey94 Wow. Are you that moaning guy? If not, you sound like exactly that type of person, thinking you're the center of the universe. He's doing a service to his community and a few hours and he's done. Entitled people like you are what makes the world crud sometimes. Change your life and be kind.
its the middle of the day. This guy is working. Could this guy call the cops on a builder renovating a house making noise too? He's full of shit. I would have laughed in his face.
@@jeremylindsey94The man came from across the road. At worst the mowing is simply audible, what does he expect everyone to just let their lawn turn into a jungle to protect his fragile little head?
Stand your ground man. “So you’re going to call the cops and tell them what? My neighbor is mowing too loud? Be my guest…”
It doesn't pay to stoop to a lower level. More like, "I'll be here. Thanks for letting me know.
Thing is, the guy may have called and was told they couldn't do anything. That's why Karens call and make stuff up to get cops to come. NOW people are being charged for lying!
Confrontation can cause you to freeze when it comes from left field when you're minding your own business. Generally you say it best when you say as little as possible without escalating or embarrassing a clown like that
To the Complaining Neighbor: Sorry, you got a migraine or hangover. But, we can't cater to "everyone" around us. Some of us have responsibilities during the day - to do upkeep & maintenance on our properties, & work. If you don't like the noise, have you ever heard of noise-canceling headphones or earplugs? Some of us have responsibilities and need to get our yards done when the sun shines. We cannot sleep all day.
Yeah call them so they can come tell you you are the idiot and hopefully hit him with a false report charge
good
This was so satisfying to watch. Thank for the work you do. I can remember the satisfaction from doing work like this AND hearing the hum and buzz of the tools! Looks wonderful, too!
Hey Spencer, I love your channel! You are such a kind hearted guy. It’s lovely to see how much you care about people. You may think it’s just a small act of kindness but I bet it means the world to those you help! That neighbour that got mad at you was a coward to threaten you with calling the cops. I doubt that the cops would have done anything but tell the neighbour to mind his own business! Keep up the great work!!
Just because he got drunk and slept in doesn't mean the whole world did. Keep up the good work! We're all here because of it!
beer belly Karen
@@mcburgerpants Thats rude...Maybe he works midnights and this is his sleeping time.
@@michellecook7586 then he needs to come up with noise mitigation options for himself. He can't expect everyone to be quiet at all times. That's impractical.
@@michellecook7586 then you figure it out. I’m someone that works nights too but I don’t expect the world to come to a screeching halt for me.
I was also wondering if he had a hangover.
Came for the confrontation, stayed for the transformation. Nicely done.
Same though
same here. and you did that for free? you the man
I wouldn’t have bitched out like he did :/
@@kimmyymmik okay tough guy
Nice one!
Such an amazing transformation. I love watching you work! Even thought about pulling out my lawn chair and making a lemonade smoothie just to finish watching the video!!! 💚🍋💚
I bet the neighbors love you!! If I had a neighbor who couldn't keep up yardwork and you came along and did it,....I'd love it!!
“Hello yes 911 there is someone mowing a lawn in my neighborhood”😂 people are unbelievable. Kudos to you for keeping a cool head and doing an amazing job. Seeing selfless acts such as these restores my faith in humanity!
You know he would have made up a lie, because no cops is gonna show up for someone mowing the lawn.
If someone said that shit to me I wouldn’t keep calm. I woulda said “you probably wouldn’t have a headache if your dumbass didn’t drink a 12 pack of beer last night! So get the fuck out of my face and go back in your home and thank me later for helping your neighborhood!

Yeah, and it would still be a selfless act if he weren't recording it to get millions of views. 🤡
😅
The neighbor being angry because normal neighborhood activities are commencing while he’s got a hangover headache 😂😂😂 Little boy energy.
Thanks for all the amazing work you do for communities!
My advice to him is don't drink and you won't have a hangover
It's actually whiny bitch energy. Little boys love weed whackers and lawn mowers.
I’m a nightshift nurse and getting sleep during the day can be damn near impossible when yard work is going on but there isn’t anything to be done. It’s one of the hazards of the shift. You can’t tell people not to work on things during the day not matter how much you’re ready to cry from exhaustion lol. And calling the police??? That neighbor needs to grow up and learn that the world doesn’t revolve around him.
@@jackiedunn9404I hate mean alcoholics, they're worthless POS.
You keep on doing your job. He was out of line and I hope everyone seen him for what he is . Love your channel.
Is it bad that I clicked off to watch a different SB Mowing video as soon as I saw the opening clip of that horrible neighbour, and saw in the comments that he doesn't get his comeuppance in the end? I couldn't bear to watch anyone be mean to Spencer for doing this incredible work 🥺. He deserves the world.
I have a tip because this has happened to our business a few times during the busy times of the year and the neighbours thought we were up to something shady. Call the police first. Inform them you are doing your job and a neighbour has threatened to call them. This way they can either disregard the neighbour when he does call or they will be aware of the situation if they show up and tell the neighbour to flock off. Communicating with the police has always worked out well for us and we don't have these types of problems anymore.
I have done this several times, when working on houses in different areas. It saves time and problems.
My brother runs a lawn care company. He could write a book about the crazy neighbors complaining about the sound of equipment, the grass being blown onto the sidewalk, and even wheel tracks. It's nuts.
Excellent advice
Don't take it to heart, that miserable bag of worms is mad at the world because he just found out that his husband has been cheating on him, with his best friend, and he decided to take his frustrations out on you. (Just keep on shining your light. The world is a better place because you are in it... that other guy, not so much!)
This guy is a jerk. He is mad because you aren't cleaning his yard. Continue to do your awesome work. I enjoy watching
Too many complaining, miserable, ungrateful people in this world and not enough of people like you, Spencer!! Thank you for caring and trying to make a difference!
Amen. Count your blessings and stfu people😅
For real
believe he was in the wrong you think he be thrill to have house looking good next to him. Some poeple are just so unhappy kinda sad that this man thinks what he wants come before anyone else that lives on that street. I always the Police are our friends when it comes to that person who think he above everyone else in the world.
Especially when it's apparently the guy's own fault for being a drunk over football. If he can't control his drinking, then taking it out on a lawn worker is the wrong response. HE is at fault. HE drank and got hung over.
Altercations come, in all forms,
A lot of people in this world suffer from ignorance, envy, some are just damn mean.
I’m so Proud of You. Continue to do the good work that you do.
A lot of us are dealing with challenges, the world & people are changing. If your homeowner was able to cleanup his yard, I believe he’d done so.
And seemingly the whole block would be applauding your efforts. I know that your client will be glad to go out side now.
Son, You’re a True Samaritan, very hard worker, God Bless You & I Thank You So Much for being the Samaritan that You Are.
Don’t let the devil ride.
The neighbors demeanor across the street. He’s just a miserable individual, very not happy with himself, nor does he care for his neighborhood. I’d hate to live near him.
Thank You God Bless You, Again Thank You for Your Loyalty toward your fellow man.
I think you are the best. Keep up the good work and ignore the idiots. I like the cops that got on here and told you how to handle the ignorant idiots. Nothing but love for you. Be safe. ❤
"Just got a little more edging to go". Proceeds to do two more hours of work. You are pure gold bro.
I was afraid he was going to let that guy get his way. Thank goodness
@@chunri1626Well, I’m sure if he did call the police, the dispatcher probably would have laughed that guy off the phone call.
😂😂😂
Shame on that neighbor for threatening with a call to the cops and shame on him for not helping the neighbor. A little kindness goes a long way.
I was an LE officer back in the 1990's.. Retired long ago and from q different Srate.. The only crime that I coulr possibly seebherenis from the complainimg neighbor, harassment and threats. Keep doing what your doing and Bless You.
Serves those neighbors right for keeping the homeowner awake half the night. Now, they know how it feels. Where I live it totally legal to make noise from 8am-10pm. Those neighbors should get familiar with noise ordinance laws, and stop harassing people helping others out. Or better yet, if they had helped out their neighbor themselves, you would not have been there in the first place. Keep doing the good work! This world needs more people like you, and less selfishness.
I like how he had a headache but had no problem loudly imitating the noise of the machine for dramatic effect
💯🤣🤣🤣🤣
I noticed that too
Yep clearly has issues
Maybe just didn't like the camera set up
Don't ever get discouraged by people like this. You are doing a great job and making a difference. You handled the situation so well and calm. Well done.
Also most city council rules regarding noise allow for such daytime activities. So that nasty neighbour could easily risk arrest or a fine for wasting police time.
Not handled well …
It clearly shook him up … this guy does awesome work and needs to realize that people ain’t sh!$. I would have ignored and cranked up my weed wacker in front of him in a semi sarcastic manner … and watch him freak out and lose his mind … people like this need to realize that the source of their rage and frustration is themselves and no one else but if you let these Karens boss you around your just empowering them
Handled it way better than I would have 😂😂
@@andrescardenas2827 kudos to him for avoiding the conflict though, I agree with you I would have gone out of my way to piss the guy off more 😂
SB Mowing thanks for sharing this video with me i really enjoy your channel you have nothing to worry about that guy you was not doing anything wrong so don't ley it worry you okay my friend keep up the good work you are doing and God Bless. and i gave you a thumbs up and shared you out on my community tab my friend.
You have alot of people here to support you we absolutely applied your efforts and greaty appreciate the kundness you share .. the world needs 1 if you on every blick 😊😊😊
Please don't let people like that intimidate you. If he called the cops, they would be on your side. I was hoping he would call the cops so we could watch the cops tell him to get lost.
I second that!! It's not a crime to do yard work, Karen. Smh.
I had that happen to me once when I was like, 15. I was paid to do someone's lawn on a saturday, and apparently one of their neighbors had gone bar hopping the night before. they threatened to do the same thing, and I wasn't even halfway finished with my job yet. in a calm tone, I told them that I wasn't halfway done yet, and that it would take me at least another 45 minutes to an hour. I told them I was sorry, but me making money was more important than their poor decisions the night before. they kept talking, and eventually I got fed up as I was losing time and money on that situation, so, without hesitation, I looked them dead in the eye and asked "don't you have someone your own age to pick on? rather than a 15 year old who is just trying to make money?". that made them leave. I told the owner of the home, and dude went to the neighbor's house and chewed them out, came back, said to get him if he caused more trouble, and things went well for the rest of the day. I made like, $160 that day, despite the interruption.
Some people want to take there own problem and take it out on others
I would be like “that’s crazy. I’m exhausted too. From being productive. And yet here I am. And here you are
@@artymunoz5060 lmfao that's awesome.
Take a bow!!! Excellent way to handle it!! ❤
$160?????? Fam whos ur neighbour ill gladly mow his lawn
I suffer from chronic head pain/migraines, and I don't know where that neighbor thinks he's so in the right that he can stop other people from living their lives and doing their jobs because he's in pain. That was incredibly selfish of him and I'm sorry you had to deal with him. You do beautiful work and it's nice to see the transformations.
I was so mad to hear the neighbor said he would call the cops out on you in 10 minutes. People don’t know how to appreciate goodness in the world. I hated that for you. I love the way you stayed calm that shows me what a good person you are and God bless you your days. I don’t doing this and maybe you don’t have to deal with anymore people like that sojust always remember what the good you do
So this guy wanted the world to stop because he got drunk and caused himself to have a hangover?!? Man, that's the price you pay. I love to watch your videos and see how much you help people.
All about him, obviously. Maybe he could keep a few beers in the truck for guys like that. Hair of the dog and all
I would have offered all the neighbors around him free mowing or pressure washing just for him.
i was thinking the same thing he had a hangover lol
@@sburns2421 he saying f the neighborhood but his childish hangover should be cared about smh
First world problems.
Imagine having the audacity and entitlement to go tell a neighbor to stop mowing in the middle of the day because you have a headache.
Imagine being that Karen that just came out and stared at him after the dude came down there. She was pissed because he's making the entire street look better . That's messed up.
Had a neghbour like that to she said the exact same words
Imagine being a half-wit like that. Spencer should've told Lenny to go tend to his rabbits. What a pink, velvety, sausage wallet that guy is.
LOL take a fucking Tylenol and buy soundproof earmuffs he is not important that's the qorobleqm nowadays everyone thinks they are the fucking President I got 45 that says no
It is not hard for me to imagine that audacity and entitlement after watching the last three years and the kind of moral degradation that passed for altruism.
I admire the work you do and your stamina, that's hard work! I wish I had some of the tools you have. And, I understand the neighbor. When it's someone else's weekly yard day in my neighborhood, it's really disrupting to hear the blowers going off. It's much easier to toverlook all the motor noise when it's occuring in one's own service.
Great job. Love the way you pay attention to details. Try to ignore the bully. Don’t let him slow you down.
As a former landscaper, I used to deal with people like this. The noise policy is from 9pm to 7am where I live and it looks like it's well past the hour in the start of the video. That guy had no right to harass you. Thank you for everything you do
OMG. I can't believe this is common. People suck.
Some people are insane, if you were doing this at 6am then yeah but this is during the day, noise it up.
Chicago is 10 pm to 8 am for yard, construction and most other noise.
Garbage trucks can start at 6 am
@@Nyx773 here it starts at 7am, but that doesn't stop me from telling everyone to respect our unwritten agreement that everyone adheres to. We have everyone tell their landscapers not to set up before 8am. Keeps things a little more sane for everyone, because people have to work and especially need their weekends for rest.
@@alexi.3414 I had a neighbor yell at me for having a conversation in the middle of the day, inside my own home. "I'M TRYING TO SLEEP!" Fat cow probably never worked a day in her life, and somehow I was to blame for her poor sleeping habits. Unfortunately for her, after a number of such "requests" I just started listening to music 24/7. And my tastes did not align with her tastes. 😄
That guy was a massive tool. You were there during the day, when there’s no noise ordinance. His headaches don’t get to dictate when people can have their landscaping done. You handled it very well.
Can you even imagine that phone call? “Yes police, I need someone to come out here and stop making noise”
“I’m sorry sir, what kind of noise are they making?”
“Engine noise.”
“Are they drag racing sir?”
“No, they are mowing a lawn!!”
Yeah, being hung-over in the morning doesn't have constitutional protection last time I looked.
unless it was before 7am
@@forzajuve4845 is that in the constitutien?
I use an electric blow and strimmer but they still make a noise

Thanks for your service!

@@kathywiseley4382 I agree. It has made me think twice about argueing with someone.
@@MichaelSmithAU 🤣 the neighborhood karen threatened to call the cops 😝
He is probably the same type of person to call the city on their neighbor for not cutting their grass.
yeah
My thought exactly! and he probably owns a really nice mower himself but would NEVER dream of helping a neighbor that doesn't have the same resources he does! Such a Darren!
Lolllllll yeap
It's quite the conundrum.
We call them Republicans around here
happened to me in the UK. My neighbour was helping me cut a tree down in my garden. Wasnt making too much noise. She started yelling we need permission. We did not, it was a birch tree, no birds nests. Then she said it was too loud and was causing distress to the people. So we asked everyone walking by and they said it was fine.
Whenever I do any garden cutting, strimming or have a bonfire behind my raised 7ft fence, she kicks off and threatens to call the cops. Started documenting it all now and reporting her for antisocial behaviour.
Gracias angel...por hacer del mundo un lugar mejor...Ojala millones fueramos como tu...GRAN SER HUMANO...THANKS🫶☺️👌🏆🌹🇨🇷.
I suffer from migraines, so can understand the noise being frustrating, but I would NEVER think that I have more rights or that I’m more important than my neighbors. I hate seeing people treating others like this.

@@AnthonyMiyazaki
Definitely
@@AnthonyMiyazaki Truly. Having watched some of Spencer's other videos, I get angry on behalf of the people he helps. The general conversation when so-called neighbors stop Spencer to talk is to denigrate the person who can't do the yard maintenance up to their standard. How much would it put you out to ask if you can mow every other week or so to help out a neighbor and "protect" the property values at the same time? Not much. But the neighborly thing to do is to be mean and callous to the poor person. (My thought is they want their yard done for free too when they find out what he's doing.)
People with hangovers are not the most pleasant people. You handled the situation very well. God bless
I would have dropped that guy right there.
thats alcohol for ya! stay green folks!
Great work!
Awesome job and always keep your cool on people like that keep up your honest work 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
I do landscaping for the city and honestly I’ve had someone do the same thing to me. Said it was too loud and that he’d call the city and cops on me if I didn’t stop with all the loud noise. It was around 10 am, not his property, so I cranked it up and kept working with my crew. Had the cops called, and they stayed in their cars and they told me if the guy came out again, that they would talk to him about wasting time with dumb calls. 🤙🏽 You’re doing nothing wrong, some people are just dumb as brick and think the world stops for them. It came out great and honestly one more for the books of helping your community.

If you aren't afraid of a fool, you risk being proved one yourself.
Insecure guy pulls out the gun
I beg to differ. The bully who thinks his needs supersede those of others is the chainsaw mower, who actually has no personal need at all to cut someone else's grass in a neighborhood that is not his own, in complete inconsideration of the people of that neighborhood. The one man who confronted the do-gooder chainsaw-machine bully is not thinking of his own needs, since he is not the only one living there and disrupted by that noise. Moral of the story: leave the grass of other people in other neighborhoods alone. It is none of your business.
@@timhuson4800 He was doing a decent thing. Are you insinuating that landscapers may no longer use power tools in the middle of the day? I used to work nights and slept during the day.

Brilliant job mate,, well done, GOD bless you
I noticed you were wearing ear plugs. If the guy was so worried about noise and was dealing with a headache, he should have stuck something in his ears while you did the good work you were doing. In the middle of the day and making his neighborhood look better, he should've offered you a cold drink instead of making threats. Keep up the good work. People like you make this world a better place.
And God forbid should that crappy neighbor think of helping his neighbor out. Had HE done this 2 weeks ago for his neighbor out of kindness, he would be able to sleep all day. Slacker...
So true
I know something else that male Karen could've stuck in his ears but I don't RUclips to flag this comment 😏
I get migraines and can be sensitive to noise and light. That's why I have earplugs and sunglasses. Keep up the good work.
I have some light sleep sometimes and I always have some earplugs in the house. Can't have other people stop their good work just because I need to take a nap, I'm not that selfish
