Some neighbors can be very annoying.

This woman violated quiet hours when she first moved into her apartment, but it was a one time offense due to some light construction work.

She originally ignored the complaint letter she got, but when the neighbors kept complaining, she found the perfect way to get back at them without breaking the rules.

Read the story below for all the details.

I am too loud at night? How about Sunday at 6?

I live in an apartment complex on the highest floor.

When I moved in, I was short on time and painted the walls up until 2AM.

The ladder made some sound, and my neighbours knocked.

We were almost done anyways, so we called it quits and thought everything is fine.

This woman received a complaint letter from the building.

A month in and I get a letter from the company that owns this building.

It says something along the lines of: “Disturbance of Peace”

“We got a complaint from your neighbours about construction sounds. And regular use of the washing machine in the middle of the night. Please be respectful towards your neighbours and don’t be too loud between 10 PM and 6 AM.”

She ignored it since it was only one time.

I was annoyed, since the “construction sounds” were only once, and I never used my washing machine in the middle of the night.

Especially not regularly.

But I didn’t want to start an argument with the company or beef with my neighbours, so I thought, since I wasn’t doing that anyway, I would just ignore it, and if there’s an other complaint, I’ll reach out.

Her sister who was in her apartment knocked over a bottle.

A few weeks ago, I had my sister over on a Saturday.

We watched some TV at night, and she accidentally kicked over a glass bottle.

It happens.

Instantly, there were three loud and angry knocks coming from below which somehow ticked me off really bad.

She decided to strictly adhere to the policy.

Now, since I am obviously too loud, I decided to strictly adhere to the rules and time.

They says I can use my washing machine before 10PM and after at 6AM, even Sundays.

Usually I did laundry at around 5PM, but I got a change of heart.

She started doing her laundry at 6:00 in the morning on weekends.

I hope that my neighbours are annoyed when my machine wakes them up at 6 in the morning on the weekend just like they obviously wanted me to and they can do nothing about it.

Since I’m not breaking any rules.

That’s a clever way to annoy the neighbors without breaking the rules!

Let’s see what others have to say about this on Reddit.

This user shares another petty idea.

While this person suggests filing a noise complaint, too.

Short and simple.

Well played, says this person.

And finally, how about some jumping jacks?

Sometimes, the best revenge is following the rule to the letter.
