This is why people have gates.
The tax people or the gas people or the delivery people can call you or text you or email you to set up a time.
The police may have a warrant...
Otherwise...
I think it is polite to call or text or email...
Or there is a way of knocking softly and politely... That says 'you can pretend you didn't hear me and that is just fine'.
I don't know.
Today... I'm sitting at my desk... And from out the upstairs window flies one milkshake container into the glass recycling bin. Then another milkshake container right next to it (miss).
I take the one that missed upstairs and knock... Determinedly... They pretend I'm not there... Which is their right. So I leave the container on their doorstep.
Then later I write 'sort your recycling' on the recycling and leave the whole recycling bin there.
Then some guy carries it back downstairs and plans on just leaving it there... So I go out to yell he can sort his recycling, I can phone the landlord, or I can phone the council and have him fined $400 for littering.
I'm sick of living with these...
What the hell is that??
Whatever the hell that is...
Children. After he sorts it (grumpily) he looks at me like I"m supposed to give him a high five or an m&m or something...
The hell...
