If you live around other human beings, you’re gonna have to deal with some noise from time to time.

That’s just part of the deal!

But it’s quite a different story if the noise is CONSTANT…and if it keeps you up most nights.

Just ask the woman who wrote this story.

She’s on the verge of losing her marbles because a rude neighbor seems to have no control over the noises that his car makes.

Take a look at what she had to say about this situation.

Repeated car alarm every night.

“My bedroom window is located a few feet away from the next door apartment complex’s parking spaces.

Oh, no…

One of the cars that sits directly adjacent to my window has an alarm that goes on and off repeatedly.

I texted the property manager to let her know of the problem, only to get the response “Who are you attempting to reach? This is not Maria.” Maria, being the (past) manager.

I learned from a neighbor that she has not been the manager for over a year. When I tried to text back, the messages were not being delivered which leads me to believe my number has been blocked.

Come on, dude…

I saw the driver of the vehicle the other day while I was in my back patio and we made made eye contact. He locks his car more now (repeatedly sounds his alarm).

And worse, the car that belongs to a younger gal (who parks next to him) does it multiple times also ever since I texted who I thought was the manager.

I don’t know what to do.

I feel like it’s an angry guy who is harassing me for having texted the prior manager (and is surely the new manager).

I should mention my apartment doesn’t have air conditioning so I have to keep my windows open.

Summer has literally been hell.

My 9-yr old and I share a bed and she struggles with the noise, too.”

Ugh!

This would drive me up the wall.

Maybe she should hire a mechanic to take care of this problem in the middle of the night…

Just a thought…

What’s it gonna take for her to get some peace and quiet…?
