Yes! I saw a story about this guy who bought a property in a hoa and he had a in ground pool so one of the first things he did was put up a fence for the reason of so many kids 12 and under when the hoa decided to sue him over it and the judge immediately threw it out and told the hoa that if they try to do it again they will be charged for child endangerment
First time Louise violated OP's boundaries, I would have called the cops. If she continued, then I'd have a restaining order put out. Give an entitled Karen/Louise an inch, she'll take a light year.
The weirdest part about story number one is that you had a pool in your... Front yard? That just seems so weird to me to have something like a pool in the front yard of the house.
I've _sort of_ seen something like that. But it's because the house/yard layout was already... Kinda strange. The house didn't actually face the road, so the 'front' yard wasn't actually the _front_ yard, as it was instead facing... Roughly 4 o'clock? 4:30?
Most building codes require a rather high fence around swimming pools, too high to easily jump over, I know this since I have a pool and that was part of the permit process. I might add that fences aren't cheap either. My insurance company also wanted a proper fence around the pool and regards pools as 'attractive nuisances' meaning they tend to attract children and others to use them without permission. I have allowed my neighbors to use my pool with permission but they must always have an adult supervise their kids and they should bring their own towels. Remember folks, if a kid drowns or get hurt in your pool, it's your fault even if the kid was trespassing and the lawsuits can bankrupt you, that did happen to a neighbor.
❤❤ yep I'm not quite there, but I think if I add Spotify, and Ripe's lady andthe Readers (which is not my favorite, but for Ripe❤❤) I'm pretty dang close 😊😊
OP and her husband make a great team. It just took some patience and understanding (and the NC with his mother) to make it work. Some women would have just made excuses for their SO while silently resenting him. The children are going to remember how loving the family when they grow up as opposed to the misery before OP and SO made a determined effort to fix things. They both deserve the credit.
Dude had no intention of waking up on time for this trip. Its one thing if he overslept 30 minutes or an hour. He stayed in bed for 4 hours. He has all kind of problems. Its good that he got help.
✨😎✨⭐. Pool story, in Florida if you have a pool, you must have a fence with a locking gate. It's a safety matter. I think everyone with a pool should be allowed to have 8 foot fences, double locks on gates, and extra cameras all around their property. Maybe it should be required as well. But the 8 foot fence, instead of 6 foot would be much better. Not many 8 foot tall people around to peek over the fence. Most people in Florida also have screens built around the pool to keep leaves out. However bears just push through the screens. They'll show it on the news, momma and baby bears swimming in local pool. That's cute. It's when a gator gets in the pool, that's scary, snakes too. 😳 So down here, strong fences are preferred around swimming pools. Remember... *Good fences make good neighbors.* Especially if your neighbors are wild animals.
If you want to really do nit right, and have the room, then add some type of a thorn bush on the poolside of the fence. Which some type of rose bushes can get tall and thick, if you let them grow.
I was working as a cashier a few days before Christmas in the express lane. The store was packed and I noticed the next lady in line had an over flowing cart. She started putting cases of pop in the belt when I explained it was 15 items or less. She got very angry and said “looks like someone doesn’t want to work “. She got in the line behind me and when she finished I turned around and told her “I’ve just checked out 6 customers in my line while you were checking out. Who says I don’t want to work?”
The last story, people like that annoys me to no end, who thinks that the express line at the register and ten items means ten items plus ten more. I've counted my stuff many times, and even if it's just one over, I'm heading for the regular checkout lane. I've also used thee regular lanes at times with only one or two items, as sometimes that's actually faster than an express lane.
tell that little boy of yours that picking on his sister is not nice 😂😂 and then tell him you're gonna put him on a time-out 😂😂... hugs and kisses to your babies and momma and dad... just remember he's a teenager 😂😂😂

Pool story: Where in the world does this take place where an in-ground pool is in the FRONT YARD? Not to mention, where can you have an openly visible pool without having a fence around it to start with in a neighborhood?
According to some legal shows I've seen (I can name Bull for sure), this constitutes an Attractive Nuisance, a danger that naturally inspires potentially dangerous behaviour, particularly to non-adults, such as trespassing. And the story talks about the police no longer being in her "favor", no U, AFAIK only Americans spell it that way. Ripe has a bad habit of changing wording and I think spelling, but otherwise that suggests this IS indeed American.
@@niceguy169 Which is why I asked WHERE. I can't think of anywhere in the US where a pool would be in the front yard AND be allowed to be anywhere on the property without a fence around it. That doesn't make sense much of anywhere in the US.

@vernonharden 🤣🤣🤣 thats actually what an online friend of mine did to deal with neighborhood braits who loved to jump fences and shortcut though people's yards.
Zoo trip husband: NTA. If he can't get himself up and out of bed, that's his own problem. The therapist/councilor even says he's not helping out enough. Edit:I'll credit him for realizing he was in the wrong and needs help.
I would say though that is was kind of harsh that she didn't even try to wake him up. I get she was fed up, but given it was a family trip I think at least one attempt of "get up" would not have been out of place.
There are medical conditions that could be responsible, I would actually recommend he talk to a sleep specialist earlier as it seems to be a common issue for him, that said sounds like they worked it out and got him the help he needs.
Story 3 , NTA partner is The AH. Stay at home, mom, here, but not by choice. I was in a car accident and I was unable to work. Dad worked his butt off, alit of times it was 7 days a week,because his boss took advantage of him. But just because one person stays home, does not mean the other gets to do nothing and not help or let the other sleep in. Anyways, my husband and I chose to do one gets to sleep in and then the next time the other would. I did most of housework and outside I liked to cut the grass. I guess what I'm trying to say is just because one works and one stays home, the one who works still shares duties at home. My daughter had a baby and herself and boyfriend were constantly fighting about who gets to sleep in and more. I had to talk with him along with my husband so it was coming from another man also, we told both of them how we did it, and he mostly agreed with us. And been great since.
She says he gets up earlier than everyone else on days he works and makes breakfast it's his days off that he sleeps in. Also, he apparently has depression so I'd say it's half and half depending on his schedule and how much he helps out when he's awake if he's making breakfast 5 mornings out of 7 and otherwise doing his part then yeah she's an asshole for not being able to let him sleep in the two mornings he has off each week if he only works part time for some reason then more details are needed to make a judgment call
@@chichi90504 yeah that is what I think. We don't know his work schedule to judge him for having a hard time waking up on weekends. At the same time he is an adult it is his responsibility to get up for commitments he made. It doesn't set well from my pov that she didn't even try to wake him up. It would have been one thing if she had made some kind of attempt given its an entire family trip and then he chose to ignore her and sleep, but he slept through her alarm, which I imagine he is used to doing and his body might have just ignored it out of habit. She is by no means the Ahole for her reaction or her expectations but probably could have initially handled the morning part better. Every thing after that is just him being a man child.
The most curious thing in the story about the husband who needs his wife to wake him, is the comment by a reader (paraphrased) that wives having to wake their husbands is a big problem on that forum. I was married for 32 years and that was never an issue. It was never an issue with my 3 brothers and their wives either. I've never heard a friend, or a coworker complain about that. In what country is that a major problem? Bahrain? Canada (lol)? Syria? Is that why last week....
Right when I think I'm perfectly accustomed to Ripe's accent I get a wrench thrown at me from my ear holes! I love this guy!! "Pigstee", indeed. Pigsty like pig sTEYE.
they mix my order up with someone else's at amazon once and told me i can ever drop it off to them or just keep it as they were just going to resend the item again any way that in australia they told me that.
Last story. Wife and I alternated getting-up early on weekends/days off. That's what a real man does. OP's husband is just a man baby and needs to grow-up.
Story 1: Trespassing is a crime for a reason. No one wants company on their property without explicit permission. Karen needs a strong reality check on her on morals. If I give someone a warning to stay off my property and they still do it the first time it happens, I'm calling the cops. I don't care who it is.
2nd story about the Amazon package... Next time should that ever happen? Send a letter to the person it was intended for using their former address that person lived at AND THEN add next to the addressee, write on the envelope, "Service Address Requested". The local post office should provide to the sender the new current address of the person you're trying to contact. Now you know.
While that will work in most cases, not everyone always gives out a forwarding address. Which in some cases it's for the best, as was the case in the story. Some abusers will use that to hunt their victim down and continue abusing them.
The first story, a fence around a pool is a necessity, and it should be high enough that to get over it, it has to either be climbed over, or a ladder used to get over it. But putting up a fence that can be hopped over fairly easily is not the way to do it. A pool fence should be no lower than about six feet, and the higher the better.
Here in the USA, the state of Nee Jersey gave you a 3 day grace period form when your pool opened to when you had a secure fence. So my friend’s sisters opens her pool and that night, a young child goes for an unsupervised swim and drowns.
Not really given enough context on the third story. Like if he's working an eighty hour work week doing hard manual labor then dude's got a right to sleep in.
@@zaqzilla1 Depends on the age, obviously, but with five kids? Potentially possible, yeah. Not that this matters much considering the husband now working from home makes it rather unlikely he previously cleaned septic tanks in the first place. And him not having been this way before they lived at his parents for a while also makes it unlikely the job was really the cause. And him agreeing in the end makes three..
@ zaqzilla1, ditto on the being mom 24/7 to 5 kids. Heck of a lot more than 80 hours a week, that’s 168 hours a week in fact. Subtract 80 hours, leaves 88 hours, subtract 56 hours for sleep (8 hours per night times 7 if lucky) that leaves 32 hours per week for everything else. So while dad relaxes, mom still has to keep working caring for 5 kids, cleaning, laundry, shopping, cooking, accounting, yard work, errands, help with homework/school, etc., & still find time to be there as a “wife”, on top of being there as mom, daughter, sister, AND try to find time for self care, personal hygiene, etc. While I agree about being able to snooze in a little on day off, why should only one parent be “allowed” that privilege? Incredibly unfair. If the breadwinner had the time to “make” 5 babies, they have the time to “parent” the kids & be there as a “husband”. Kinda like if you can’t do the time, don’t do the crime. Comparing “jobs” is quite childish, try comparing a Doctor to a fireman, or an accountant to a university professor. Manual labor is draining, but that does not diminish any other job, or define its value anymore than any other job when discussing FAMILY RESPONSIBILITY.
It is funny, here you can't have a pool without a locked up fence, 4 ft or higher. A 4inch ball must not be able to pass (so no baby can slip through). This is because there is too many kids drowning every years. Everyone install a 5.5ft tall one for privacy. So not easy to jump over.
If you have a Pool, Security Cameras, a Tall Fence and No Trespassing Signs are the absolute MINIMUM you should add to the yard to protect you from Liability if nothing else... Personally, If I had a Pool, it would be installed in a Greenhouse style structure (made of Hurricane Glass) which not only keeps people out but also bugs, leaves, pine needles and animal waste out of the water, severely decreasing the amount of maintenance needed on the pool...the enclosure will also decrease evaporative losses, make it easier to maintain the water temperature and protect the pool (and everyone in it) from Lightning Strikes and other bad weather so you can use the pool year round, not just in the summer on storm-free days... And if you add an Electro-Chromic film (a film that changes colour when a current is applied to it) to the panels, you can gain privacy if you want to use the pool in the nude just by flipping a switch and making the panels frosted so light passes through but you can't see through it...
Story 2: there are laws to deal with found/unclaimed property. Most places, you deliver it to the local police department, who has far more resources for locating people. If it remains unclaimed, it can be auctioned by the municipality. Negotiable instruments, such as cash or bearer bonds can be released to the finder after a period of time. In California, misappropriation of found property is a form of theft under Pen as l Code 485.
The third story no the poster was not the jerk. However neither was the husband, once all the facts came out. The real jerk was the manipulative mother-in-law. She could use some therapy as could the father-in-law. It's now the twenty first century, and not the sixth century, Which there are some who want many things from that time period back.
The second story, I wouldn't have opened the package if it came through the U.S. Postal Service. The reason is that falls under tampering with the mail, and that's a serious offense. I'd have instead contacted the post office, and seen if the person had left a forwarding address or not. If it was delivered by another service, then that's a different game after the time has elapsed. Being as it was security cams in the end the poster and husband came out good though.
#2 the package you are not allowed to open someone else packages by law but you tried to return it to amazon/delivery service and you tried to get it to the owner but failed for years so you are good USPS is a different story all you need to do is write "Return to Sender" on it and put it out for the mail carrier and if you do not it is a federal crime
For the last story...what do you mean? You call him your Partner. So is he your long time Boyfriend and you had kids with him and he refuses to get married or is he your Husband? Which is it? The word Partner can mean anything. If you're going to be vague in a story then just say my "Human Mate".
Pool story : The F is people so stupid!!! After you say to someone "Your not allowed on my property especially your not allowed to use my pool" next time you see them doing something like that call the police, press charges for trespassing especially if you have cameras and especially in America ... Amazon story : Confirms people are stupid ... Family story : Old story and yeah husband needed a reality check and it seems he got one so its all good now ... Last story is just stupid and it's store problem like WTF you have 10 or less item line but no one enforce that rule so why the F you have in the first place ? If it's not enforceable then F it everyone need to start using that line like a normal one ...if you ask "well how can they enforce it"well when there is more then 10 item just refuse to service and call the security to remove the offender...easy !!!
And build it in the backyard away from nosy neighbors! Never heard of an in ground pool in the front yard anyways. I wouldn’t want everyone going by watching as I enjoyed it. 🤦🏼♀️
S3- I believe He never bothered 2 set an alarm n never had any intention of gettin of wakin, like he had promised So many times b4. He only has himself 2 blame, OP is his wife NT His Mother,. A grown man should have the basic able 2 wake up when he needs 2, nt when he wants 2.
With story 3 even before the update i had a feeling the mother was part of the problem her reaction after finding out her son didn't come because he over slept felt suspicious.
With the story about the family going to the zoo. What does hubby do for a living? Everyone wants to gaslight the man without taking his side into consideration
I prefer to wait and have all of the details before I say anything personally. Which it turned out that the toxic mother-in-law was at the root of the problems.
I would definitely advise the property managers to get that apartment cleansed or have somebody come in and get the place blessed so that there's better energy coming in for the place and might get rented out because of it. Also it's fine to open a package if there's no way you can get it back I mean it could be food and it's spoiled and it'll stink up your house.
The only time you could get away with having an above ground, out side pool without a fence, was in the 50' and 60's and maybe the early 70's, Aafter that insurance insisted on one, or you weren't covered for liability.
1: Louise could have had a god thing going, but she had to go throw a party without permission! 2: Since they tried to return package and it was abandoned for over a year, so it's fine to open it. 3: OP is kinda being petty since it would not have cost her anything to wake him up.
@10:18 if it is in the USA then it doesnt matter how long it takes them to pick it up, without permission to open it, it is a federal crime to open someone else's mail
So ... the Amazon story? Doesn't everyone have at least one? One of my sons works at 1 of their warehouses; when I ordered a paring knife (just 1) there were actually 6 in the box. The price on the "invoice" was neither the price shown on the item page for a single knife nor the extended price for 6. Payment, of course, was made before shipment and was the correct price. I asked my sons - all 3 of them - what to do under the circumstances. Two said send them back, but the 1 who works at Amazon said keep them all.
If anyone has an in ground pool, a fence should be the first thing set up around it for liability issues alone.
Most insurance companies require a fence around a pool. I know mine did even though at the time my nearest neighbor was a half-mile away.
Yes! I saw a story about this guy who bought a property in a hoa and he had a in ground pool so one of the first things he did was put up a fence for the reason of so many kids 12 and under when the hoa decided to sue him over it and the judge immediately threw it out and told the hoa that if they try to do it again they will be charged for child endangerment

@@AeroGuy07it’s a building code standard in most of the US; you must have a fence of a certain height with any gates being self-closing and latching.
The weirdest part about story number one is that you had a pool in your... Front yard? That just seems so weird to me to have something like a pool in the front yard of the house.
I was wondering that too. Why in the front yard? I have never seen a pool in the front yard before.

I've seen that happen when they barely had a back yard.
could be a fake story, it is the internet after all.
Well that's asking for trouble. Front yard? No privacy or security.
On the Amazon package: hubby was right. The camera is a weapon for protection. It provides evidence.
Few things are as unneighborly as an entitled trespassing neighbor, except for a bad HOA. Great stories, Ripe.

Where I live, you have to have a fence in order to have an inground pool.
In the front yard? That’s a little unusual. So every time the neighbor walks by she gets to look at it. Kinda wrong!
I found the pool in the front yard very unusual also...
Perhaps it's setback a considerable distance from the street??
The front garden is where I get my best sunbathing in my speedos done!

The say fences make great neighbors... so do thorn brush
A fence plus a thorn bush of some type combined on the inside of the fence, and you just might have the ideal barrier.

But just because one person stays home, does not mean the other gets to do nothing and not help or let the other sleep in. Anyways, my husband and I chose to do one gets to sleep in and then the next time the other would. I did most of housework and outside I liked to cut the grass. I guess what I'm trying to say is just because one works and one stays home, the one who works still shares duties at home. My daughter had a baby and herself and boyfriend were constantly fighting about who gets to sleep in and more. I had to talk with him along with my husband so it was coming from another man also, we told both of them how we did it, and he mostly agreed with us. And been great since.
In the story about the husband who slept in, he had no right to not help. Parenting is a two person job and he was a jerk.
She says he gets up earlier than everyone else on days he works and makes breakfast it's his days off that he sleeps in. Also, he apparently has depression so I'd say it's half and half depending on his schedule and how much he helps out when he's awake if he's making breakfast 5 mornings out of 7 and otherwise doing his part then yeah she's an asshole for not being able to let him sleep in the two mornings he has off each week if he only works part time for some reason then more details are needed to make a judgment call
@@chichi90504 yeah that is what I think. We don't know his work schedule to judge him for having a hard time waking up on weekends. At the same time he is an adult it is his responsibility to get up for commitments he made. It doesn't set well from my pov that she didn't even try to wake him up. It would have been one thing if she had made some kind of attempt given its an entire family trip and then he chose to ignore her and sleep, but he slept through her alarm, which I imagine he is used to doing and his body might have just ignored it out of habit. She is by no means the Ahole for her reaction or her expectations but probably could have initially handled the morning part better. Every thing after that is just him being a man child.
The most curious thing in the story about the husband who needs his wife to wake him, is the comment by a reader (paraphrased) that wives having to wake their husbands is a big problem on that forum. I was married for 32 years and that was never an issue. It was never an issue with my 3 brothers and their wives either. I've never heard a friend, or a coworker complain about that. In what country is that a major problem? Bahrain? Canada (lol)? Syria? Is that why last week....
Right when I think I'm perfectly accustomed to Ripe's accent I get a wrench thrown at me from my ear holes! I love this guy!! "Pigstee", indeed. Pigsty like pig sTEYE.
they mix my order up with someone else's at amazon once and told me i can ever drop it off to them or just keep it as they were just going to resend the item again any way that in australia they told me that.
Who the hell puts a pool in the front yard?
They need to talk to law enforcement since it's a federal offense and should talk and find it out if it's ok to open it
Hi all 👋👋
Hello there 👋
@williamcoulston7788 hi
It's pronounced pig ST-EYE. Eye like eyeball.
Don't worry tho Ripe, your English is much better than most people speak the language 😁
Last story. Wife and I alternated getting-up early on weekends/days off. That's what a real man does. OP's husband is just a man baby and needs to grow-up.

Story 1: Trespassing is a crime for a reason. No one wants company on their property without explicit permission. Karen needs a strong reality check on her on morals. If I give someone a warning to stay off my property and they still do it the first time it happens, I'm calling the cops. I don't care who it is.

Hi Ripe 😎⭐😺, have a nice day y'all.

2nd story about the Amazon package...
Next time should that ever happen? Send a letter to the person it was intended for using their former address that person lived at AND THEN add next to the addressee, write on the envelope, "Service Address Requested".
The local post office should provide to the sender the new current address of the person you're trying to contact.
Now you know.
While that will work in most cases, not everyone always gives out a forwarding address. Which in some cases it's for the best, as was the case in the story. Some abusers will use that to hunt their victim down and continue abusing them.
Most abusers are too dumb to know about it. After all, it was apparently obvious with OP in the story and in the comments. 😉
The first story, a fence around a pool is a necessity, and it should be high enough that to get over it, it has to either be climbed over, or a ladder used to get over it. But putting up a fence that can be hopped over fairly easily is not the way to do it. A pool fence should be no lower than about six feet, and the higher the better.
Here in the USA, the state of Nee Jersey gave you a 3 day grace period form when your pool opened to when you had a secure fence. So my friend’s sisters opens her pool and that night, a young child goes for an unsupervised swim and drowns.
Not really given enough context on the third story. Like if he's working an eighty hour work week doing hard manual labor then dude's got a right to sleep in.
Mom doesn’t work 80+ hours a week taking care of 5 small children? When does she get to sleep in?
@@lorettamoore6345 So taking care of your children is equal to cleaning out septic tanks, mining coal, or working at a foundry?
@@zaqzilla1 Depends on the age, obviously, but with five kids? Potentially possible, yeah. Not that this matters much considering the husband now working from home makes it rather unlikely he previously cleaned septic tanks in the first place. And him not having been this way before they lived at his parents for a while also makes it unlikely the job was really the cause. And him agreeing in the end makes three..
@ you are obviously not a mother. Yes, it can be that difficult!
@ zaqzilla1, ditto on the being mom 24/7 to 5 kids. Heck of a lot more than 80 hours a week, that’s 168 hours a week in fact. Subtract 80 hours, leaves 88 hours, subtract 56 hours for sleep (8 hours per night times 7 if lucky) that leaves 32 hours per week for everything else. So while dad relaxes, mom still has to keep working caring for 5 kids, cleaning, laundry, shopping, cooking, accounting, yard work, errands, help with homework/school, etc., & still find time to be there as a “wife”, on top of being there as mom, daughter, sister, AND try to find time for self care, personal hygiene, etc. While I agree about being able to snooze in a little on day off, why should only one parent be “allowed” that privilege? Incredibly unfair. If the breadwinner had the time to “make” 5 babies, they have the time to “parent” the kids & be there as a “husband”. Kinda like if you can’t do the time, don’t do the crime. Comparing “jobs” is quite childish, try comparing a Doctor to a fireman, or an accountant to a university professor. Manual labor is draining, but that does not diminish any other job, or define its value anymore than any other job when discussing FAMILY RESPONSIBILITY.
Story 2, just bring it to the Post Office.
Story one is off state laws require a fence around a built in pool. Every body knows way.
Wow in Australia it is illegal not to have a fence around it. Children animals can fall in it and drown. Dangerous.
One of my biggest pet peeves is people that waste time. I always hate making people wait for me. I always try and be curious of everybody else's time.
Nta. Your property, your right to allow or not allow ppl to use things of yours.
It is funny, here you can't have a pool without a locked up fence, 4 ft or higher. A 4inch ball must not be able to pass (so no baby can slip through). This is because there is too many kids drowning every years.
Everyone install a 5.5ft tall one for privacy. So not easy to jump over.
If you have a Pool, Security Cameras, a Tall Fence and No Trespassing Signs are the absolute MINIMUM you should add to the yard to protect you from Liability if nothing else...
Personally, If I had a Pool, it would be installed in a Greenhouse style structure (made of Hurricane Glass) which not only keeps people out but also bugs, leaves, pine needles and animal waste out of the water, severely decreasing the amount of maintenance needed on the pool...the enclosure will also decrease evaporative losses, make it easier to maintain the water temperature and protect the pool (and everyone in it) from Lightning Strikes and other bad weather so you can use the pool year round, not just in the summer on storm-free days...
And if you add an Electro-Chromic film (a film that changes colour when a current is applied to it) to the panels, you can gain privacy if you want to use the pool in the nude just by flipping a switch and making the panels frosted so light passes through but you can't see through it...
Story 2: there are laws to deal with found/unclaimed property. Most places, you deliver it to the local police department, who has far more resources for locating people. If it remains unclaimed, it can be auctioned by the municipality. Negotiable instruments, such as cash or bearer bonds can be released to the finder after a period of time. In California, misappropriation of found property is a form of theft under Pen as l Code 485.
The third story no the poster was not the jerk. However neither was the husband, once all the facts came out. The real jerk was the manipulative mother-in-law. She could use some therapy as could the father-in-law. It's now the twenty first century, and not the sixth century, Which there are some who want many things from that time period back.
😎👍
See you on the next video...
The second story, I wouldn't have opened the package if it came through the U.S. Postal Service. The reason is that falls under tampering with the mail, and that's a serious offense. I'd have instead contacted the post office, and seen if the person had left a forwarding address or not. If it was delivered by another service, then that's a different game after the time has elapsed. Being as it was security cams in the end the poster and husband came out good though.
Some Amazon packages get delivered by private couriers like UPS or FedEx.
A pool in your front yard? A fence is usually mandatory.
Nta. Have louise trespassed and arrested for criminal damage to property.
The one calling someone else a bad neighbor is the bad neighbor most of the from what
#2 the package
you are not allowed to open someone else packages by law
but you tried to return it to amazon/delivery service and you tried to get it to the owner but failed for years so you are good
USPS is a different story all you need to do is write "Return to Sender" on it and put it out for the mail carrier and if you do not it is a federal crime
Why in the front yard?
For the last story...what do you mean? You call him your Partner. So is he your long time Boyfriend and you had kids with him and he refuses to get married or is he your Husband? Which is it? The word Partner can mean anything. If you're going to be vague in a story then just say my "Human Mate".
I hope it’s not a food item
why in the hell would you put your inground swimming pool in the front yard?
⭐️❤️⭐️❤️⭐️❤️⭐️
Pool in the front yard?
NTA: he's a momma's boy. His behavior stems from going back to live with the parents. Momma does everything for him so he changed.
Piggsty is pronounced pigs-st-eye please ... this is the 3rd time I've heard you say it wrong
Karens really do love wasting other peoples time but dont want their own time wasted
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Pool story : The F is people so stupid!!! After you say to someone "Your not allowed on my property especially your not allowed to use my pool" next time you see them doing something like that call the police, press charges for trespassing especially if you have cameras and especially in America ...
Amazon story : Confirms people are stupid ...
Family story : Old story and yeah husband needed a reality check and it seems he got one so its all good now ...
Last story is just stupid and it's store problem like WTF you have 10 or less item line but no one enforce that rule so why the F you have in the first place ?
If it's not enforceable then F it everyone need to start using that line like a normal one ...if you ask "well how can they enforce it"well when there is more then 10 item just refuse to service and call the security to remove the offender...easy !!!

If you have or going to build a pool , EVERYONE SHOULD INSTALL CAMS, FENCE, WATER MONITOR- it’s a legal & kids will use if you dont
And build it in the backyard away from nosy neighbors! Never heard of an in ground pool in the front yard anyways. I wouldn’t want everyone going by watching as I enjoyed it. 🤦🏼♀️
S3- I believe He never bothered 2 set an alarm n never had any intention of gettin of wakin, like he had promised So many times b4. He only has himself 2 blame, OP is his wife NT His Mother,. A grown man should have the basic able 2 wake up when he needs 2, nt when he wants 2.
Why is the pool is in the front yard? It should be in the back yard.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
the package one 30 60 90 days is what some one has to claim it other then that its yours thats what cops would do if you turned it into them
they had kids so he they where probably atleast 20 year old he should have set an alarm or multiple if he didnt wake from one
With story 3 even before the update i had a feeling the mother was part of the problem her reaction after finding out her son didn't come because he over slept felt suspicious.
With the story about the family going to the zoo. What does hubby do for a living? Everyone wants to gaslight the man without taking his side into consideration
I prefer to wait and have all of the details before I say anything personally. Which it turned out that the toxic mother-in-law was at the root of the problems.
1st story: Who the hell puts the pool in the front yard?
This woman is too damned entitled for using her neighbor's pool without permission
I would definitely advise the property managers to get that apartment cleansed or have somebody come in and get the place blessed so that there's better energy coming in for the place and might get rented out because of it.
Also it's fine to open a package if there's no way you can get it back I mean it could be food and it's spoiled and it'll stink up your house.

The only time you could get away with having an above ground, out side pool without a fence, was in the 50' and 60's and maybe the early 70's,
Aafter that insurance insisted on one, or you weren't covered for liability.
1: Louise could have had a god thing going, but she had to go throw a party without permission!
2: Since they tried to return package and it was abandoned for over a year, so it's fine to open it.
3: OP is kinda being petty since it would not have cost her anything to wake him up.
What kind of neighbourhood had no boundaries? Must be usa.
Wait, she was buying security cameras and then disappeared.....
She has her own pool. No way she should be in her neighbours pool.
@10:18 if it is in the USA then it doesnt matter how long it takes them to pick it up, without permission to open it, it is a federal crime to open someone else's mail
So ... the Amazon story? Doesn't everyone have at least one? One of my sons works at 1 of their warehouses; when I ordered a paring knife (just 1) there were actually 6 in the box. The price on the "invoice" was neither the price shown on the item page for a single knife nor the extended price for 6. Payment, of course, was made before shipment and was the correct price. I asked my sons - all 3 of them - what to do under the circumstances. Two said send them back, but the 1 who works at Amazon said keep them all.
