Micro Government
Never lived in one but worked in plenty as a landscaper. They suck. One account, HOA is responsible for getting landscapers for the front yards, the back yards are the responsibility of the home owner. Owner is a lady in her 70s, and hired us to cut her back yard due to complaints from the HOA president.
First time I show up, I use a small push mower and as I leave I’m met by the president who just happens to be her neighbor…
He’s complaining the small push mower left wheel marks leading to her backyard. On her property… Which he is claiming is his property.
Everytime I went there after he would be waiting for me to be done to complain about something and THE ONLY REASON I WAS THERE IN THE FIRST PLACE WAS BECAUSE THIS NOSY MAN WAS UPSET HIS 70 YEAR OLD NEIGHBOR COULDN’T MOW HER BACK YARD ONCE A WEEK HERSELF.
HOAs are a hyper local form of government and suck even more than a regular government.
