Entitled Neighbor Built A POOL On My Farm Without Permission! Calls Cops When I Drain It

[@jimmyb2655]

I would have put a fence up and said "thanks for the pool"

[@matts9371]

Hell yeah. Such great neighbors gifting you a free pool

[@chinavaughan6383]

🤣🤣🤣🤣

And you would be losing a lot of money in the number of harvests and bushels. Pools are nice, but the thousands of dollars in crops being sold is better.

My friend had neighbors like this when they lived on a farm in the northeast. Her dad started tilling his fields at 3am. They tried filing a noise complaint, and the cops basically told them that a farm is a business and they can get bent. They simmered down a lot after that

[@triciac1019]

We had a small farm across the street from me in a suburban area. They peopably worked days. They did farming work at night and it never bothered me. I actually enjoyed it. The property was sold and houses were built. That was at least 20 years ago. I sure miss that farm.

[@gregoryk.9815]

Here's the thing I can't understand why do people move out of the city into the country if they don't like the sound of farming or the smells

[@puppetmasterey]

It's because they have an idealized version of country living in thier head. Everything's supposed to be nice and quiet, that's why they move to the country. For you see, only the city has nose.

[@Game_Blox9999]

Well, they already stink, why complain about the stink that isn't theirs?

[@krism8335]

Because they’ve only seen country living through movies on Hallmark and they want the aesthetic without the reality

My advice, if you have warrants out for your arrest, don't go around being a jerk to your neighbors. The police may have an easier time finding you. Although if you weren't a jerk you wouldn't have the warrants in the first place.

[@joelangelsanchez1581]

I’ve seen, heard & read stories about people with warrants being jerks in general and attracting police attention. There was a guy (with a warrant) recently calling 911 because he wanted fresh mcD fries but they said no….or something along those lines.

[@castors_fog]

I still would have taken them to court. Made them pay for the cost of renting the excavator and my time spent dismantling their illegal pool. Then I'd move the compost pile to that exact spot.

[@habituallearner7680]

I'd move the pig pen right there so it would be very close to their house.

[@danrossell6375]

Why did you throw the contractor off your property they obviously don’t have a permit to build the pool. Call the sheriff!

[@paulwilliams5208]

"don't be so selfish" said the one who built a pool on someone's else's property "WHO!" is the selfish one

[@Animeaddiction]

I wonder why those pool contractors didn't question if the pool they were constructing was on someone else's property? That's an easy way to have a lawsuit on your company.

[@matthewhaight5296]

I love the lawyer story for the simple fact that the entire cease and desist most likely wouldn’t have happened if that guys bragging hadn’t happened giving the lawyer the petty motivation to pour over the contract. That and the fact that it didn’t happen till the companies rebranding means he could have waited years before actually using what he learned fro the contract.

[@rmhartman]

Courts do not like the "self help" approach to fixing that sort of thing.

[@theressmille]

You are doing great!!! Adding some chicken wire at the bottom to keep smaller critters out and placing chicken about 8❤ inches deep under the soil bed to keep our voles, miles and smaller rabbits.. yep. A lot of work but worth the effort

[@666toysoldier]

In these stories about someone building a pool on someone else's land----Where do they get the water and electric?

[@Animeaddiction]

First Story: Damn! OP didn't mess around!

[@kevinpotts123]

Chad and Stacey? Really original.

[@Loadrunner620]

Calls cops, a lawyer and sue. Plus use a bulldozer to remove it.

[@barbiek3987]

Story #1. Ok, so chad and stacey didn't take OP to court, BUT, OP should have taken THEM to court. Even if the excavator was his, there's still his time spent removing the 'structure'.

[@jefferykaplan4400]

As to the first story op should have sued the heck out of those arogant a hole neighbors for destruction of property the fee for the equipment rental his time for his work and the cost to repair the damage and have a lien put on their property to ensure payment and if possible ad intrest payments as we ad getting a restraining order and having them pay for a fence. As to the second story always have a signed contract. The his and and wife didn't have their priorities straight or actual knowledge of the law and the husband went back to jail and the child is the one suffering from the parents stupidity and it's their own fault. Now the tax payers will suffer to.

[@garrenlally9306]

First story. Not only sue them. But sue the pool company. They should know who owns the property and should be held accountable. Their business would likely be shut down for this.

[@RobinRobertsesq]

unbelievable story. Literally.

[@jefferykaplan4400]

As to the fourth story that arogant jerk and his equally arogant co horts words and arogance bit them in the but big time. As to the last story the first time the jerk parked there op should have been the last time. While that creepy is in jail op should file a lawsuit for the damages and since the crerp has no assets take his truck. The crerp most likely parked there to avoid being found. Now he is where he belongs.

[@johnparker2957]

In the first story, I’m calling BS. If the farmer can look out of his window and see where the pool had been, how did he not see a construction crew turn up on site and partly construct a pool. Also he would have told the builders to stop work as it was his land and not let them continue for another 7 days. The whole story doesn’t make sense.

[@womblissimo6666]

None of these types of stories are real .. They are all "Chicken Soup for the Soul"

[@davidhamm7909]

Why don’t you build your own pool? When it’s finished it WILL be my pool.

[@DocFear]

Geez... Stupid entitled neighbors... and honestly does the pool company not ask for proof that the people hiring them have permission to build a pool in the first place?

[@MadKurupt]

Bad fiction

[@nimisilverbird1239]

Nta. It is on your land. So it is yours or it is vandalism and destruction of property. Stop trying to get idiots to understand. No second chances. Sue them and the pool company who are constructing on your land

[@manxkin]

Wouldn’t the pool company perform a proper survey, obtain required permits prior to starting the pool? Water, electricity, etc. Where’s that coming from. Nonsense.

[@castors_fog]

It's not the job of the contractor to do that leg work. It's up to the property owner to have all their paperwork in order. The contractor is only under contract to do the job they're paid to do, and to do it within code, not make sure that the owner has permission to do it in the first place.

[@manxkin]

@@castors_fog Where I live it is often the job of the contractor to obtain the required permits. It may be included in the contract with the client. Apparently in this story no one obtain the required permits or surveys to build the pool.

[@Rumkitty2000]

This sounds like BS. I can't imagine someone taking such a risk with their own money by building something on a neighbor's property. Also, as far as the author goes, anyone with half a brain would have called a lawyer immediately!

[@tonyrobinson9328]

In all these stories where something is illegally built on someone else's property they always want it tore down and do not let them finish it I do not understand that. I would let them finish thus costing them more money when it is tore down or take possession. If someone built a pool on my ground I would let them finish then get a restraining order to keep them off my property and enjoy free pool.

[@barbiek3987]

Only if you wanted a pool. If neighbors did that to our property, well we don't want a pool or we would have put one in ourselves.

[@brentsturm9908]

What a crock it’s not even funny

[@12oldman]

I was furious but did not want to escalate the situation? Stupid story line.

[@carmium]

Could #1 not have left the pool to be finished, then thrown up a secure fence right along the property line? There are far too few fences in all these encroachment stories!

[@Game_Blox9999]

Fences usually make good neighbors, but in this case, it would make a good enemy.

[@barbiek3987]

Depends on the length. On one side, he's in construction so he and his sons put up a fence. However on the other side, all there is is a tree line. Putting up a real fence would cost a small fortune. If we had bad neighbors on that side, we'd find a different means but fencing wouldn't work.

[@thedevilsworkshop7720]

I worked at Burger King when I was a kid on the night shift , and one night a very drunk customer comes in for an after drinking session feed . Orders 2 chicken burgers but extra cooked because apparently all of our burgers are raw and she doesn't eat raw food . Now we don't have a flat plate at burger king, it's a chain fed thing. You put your patties in on one side theyvget flame grilled and come out of the other side. So we try to explain that we can't just cook it a bit more . She gets angry and tells us to just put it through twice so it will be properly cooked . So I did. What came out looked like charcoal . So I put this cremated chicken on her burgers and with extra sause because hell, it needed it at that point and serve them up to her . Now I'm expecting a Karen style freak out after the first bite, but nope . She ate every single bite . Even came up to the counter to thank us profusely for cooking her burgers properly for the first time, and she will be back every weekend 😂
