Have a neighbor who wastes just a ton. I remember the phrase (waste not, want not). Its not all my neighbors just one in particular.
Runs the A/C when its a beautiful 72-75 degree day with a perfectly slight breeze. In fact, they don't shut the A/C off ever, never open the windows and say they have "allergies". Must be allergic to beautiful weather.
Trash- it's overflowing at every pick-up day, many times they leave extra stuff on the side of the bin as its too full to hold. They have 1 less person in their family then we do, and they
Water- They run their sprinkler system when its raining. Always boggled my mind.
Lights- They light up the outside like a christmas tree and leave lights on all throughout the house in the rooms they don't use all night long. Told me they have blacked out sheets over the windows, so the lights don't bother them, but they bother us.
Gas- They let their vehicles run for about 20 to 25 minutes before they head out in them. I am guessing to warm them up/cool them down...but I just start the vehicle and leave. They park outside in the summer because they have so much stuff in their 2 car garage they can't fit both vehicles..and actually own 3 vehicles which means they are paying extra insurance on the "sports car" that is rarely driven. IN fact it doesn't have wiper blades so it cant be driven in rain...and he doesn't drive it in the winter. Just parks it in the one stall that's available in the 2 car.
I don't know why it bothers me so much but it seems to. DW says move along and just worry about us. I get it but man the waste I am seeing there is appalling.
