Same here - but years prior as I was remote then too. One particular lady, every day in the fall, would climb on a ladder and use a leaf blower to try to clean leaves from the gutters. Like, hours of leafblower a day. I'm not a violent person, but that noise was so aggravating I had daydreams of kicking that ladder over.

To this day, I don't understand why cities or neighborhoods don't at least limit the days they can be used. Everywhere I've lived, someone in earshot is mowing or blowing every...single...day.




They limit the hours, which is usually ignored. Limiting the days might be a much more effective method.
