My neighbor drove her Mule over to my shop yesterday and asked that I trim the branches on the alders on the front of the property that are dumping on her grass. This is something I planned on doing, probably taking all of them down and replacing with evergreens. My issue with her request wasn't that she asked, it's a legit complaint especially with the way they keep their lawn so nice, BUT she said "will you do it or do you want me to do it?" Maybe it was me but it seemed kinda manipulative. She's the neighbor that asked my excavator to take out a stump that was clearly on my property, bribed him with a box of doughnuts so maybe that's why I'm thinking that way : )
