CONFRONTED by Angry Neighbor, He tried ASSAULTING ME 

Tip from an ex-swing shift worker: invest in foam earplugs and have a box fan running in the bedroom.

That neighbor knew they were having a rough time and called the city to complain about the yard? Then complained when it was getting cleaned up. What a colossal jerk. Maybe he should have helped them by mowing their lawn rather than call the city on them.

The angry neighbor was the one who reported that poor family to the city. Instead of helping his neighbor, he gave them more grief.

"and I'm the one who reported it to the city" "I know they are struggling "big time" 😢 Are you kidding me? If you know your neighbor needs help - why do you wait for a total stranger to do what you should have done a long time ago? Bless you for helping those who are in need! ❤

That annoyed man did approach you with a bit of anger, but quickly changed his tune and apologized, even bringing you a cold drink and apologizing again. That takes a lot of humility and it's not easy for most men to do that. He clearly just needs some sleep. You did a great job!

Obviously the complainer never heard the "rule" that you always should approach someone using power equipment from the front for the safety of both parties.

I've been that guy many times and had to apologize for it. Sometimes, I just go into a conversation expecting confrontation rather than just being respectful and seeing how it goes. Glad he came around.

That was very considerate of the neighbor to come with a drink. I've never seen someone cleaning up the yard after dark, that shows how much you care about helping out others. Thank-you for caring for others. You did wonderful cleaning up that yard.

It doesn't matter if it's a paid job or not there is no excuse for rudeness.

Yardwork isn't a crime, sir.

That was very strange, he raved about getting no sleep but when you said you were doing it for free, changed his mind! You have every right to work during the day between say 8am to 6pm. Thank you for helping out this struggling family, God Bless you, from Australia 🇦🇺🙏🙏👏🤗👍

My husband used to work shifts, earplugs are a must and wonderful. But, if I yelled at the kids in a whisper, to quiet down, your father worked all night... he would tell me, it's not the kids playing, it was me, "whisper yelling" at the kids. Now that it is just the two of us, we miss those days. Oh yeah, nothing wakes him up now. 😊

He knew they were struggling so he added to their problems by reporting it to the city...what a self-righteous, supercilious piece of work.

I used to work 3rd shift, or graveyard shift as we called it, quite a bit and what Captain Grouch needs is blacked out windows and sound deadening in his room. The world does not stop because you are trying to sleep.

It was refreshing to see the neighbor apologize and show appreciation towards you. Especially to witness him showing compassion and regret for his previous behavior. I thought that was a very nice exchange at the end.

You helped out a family in need AND taught a lesson to an angry neighbor who will think about his actions in the future. I'd say that's a very good day's work. God bless.

Nobody is going to do yard work at "third shift" for "his" convivence.... Whether they're making money or not! Great job on your part.

The man said he knew they were struggling, then why didn’t he mow their grass? Nobody is neighborly anymore!

That’s heartbreaking the neighbor knows they’re struggling and he report d them to the city but couldn’t help his own neighbor. How sad. Thank you for your kindness❤

Great job! Instead of complaining and reporting, how's about big mouth get off his ass and help out. You are making HIS neighborhood look better. God bless ❤

Remember the old saying. “No good deed goes unpunished.” You just witnessed this for yourself. God bless you!

He didn't like the eyesore nor hear the "noise" mowing this yard. I never heard of, or seen anyone doing yard work at night. This is a one-day job. So, put up with it for a few hours.

Have been in my house 5+ years. Neighbor/owner doesn't live in his house and has cleaned his yard only 5 times. I started cleaning up his curb . Someone alerted him. He came by and yelled at me. Then he asked if I'd do the back. I took the high road. Last year the city cleaned up his yard. This year a 2 person crew cleaned up. I used to wait until near dark to clean up the curb. Now I don't care. I have to look at it. He did say to me ,"don't look". Many thanks to this person. That was a lot of work. We're in a recession,.. depression is coming. I expect more abandonment. Just glad squatters have not moved in.

You have a generous heart. ❤ YOU DID A GREAT JOB!! Sadly, this family is in a bad way. I hope that between the town & and family, they can make arrangements to keep their property. All the best!!

He was pissed off because he thought you were making more money than he is. What is the difference if you are making money? I don't understand his problem. You are a great person for doing this for a stranger.

Sorry you had a bad experience with the neighbor. You are much appreciated.

As a guy who works nights I get the frustration. Good of him for apologizing.

WOW…I know the neighbor was aggressive the first time, but he came back and apologized and even brought a fresh drink…give him some credit!

Big thanks to the upset neighbour, , thank-you for coming back to apologise and bring hydrating fluids for the hard worker making your community looks so much better, bless'

Neighbor should be happy to have job unlike his neighbor.

I can understand him being upset, because he works third shift and was trying to sleep. I did that for 9 months and it was really hard. But there is a better way to approach and talk to people. At least he apologized when he realized you were trying to help them. Thank you being so kind.

Thanks for your free work! You are appreciated!!

What a nice man helping people out - what a selfish jerk wanting the world to revolve around him!

I’m glad he apologized and brought you a drink, I think he was very sorry for the way he acted. Great job here!

“I thought you were out here making money” like that’s a goddamn FUCKING PROBLEM🤬

Day sleepers need a fan in their bedroom.

This yard has signs of the family struggling for a while. Thank you for responding to the message they needed help and getting the needed work done. Liked your little vacuum system. If you had left, after the neighbor got angry, the homeowner would have been doubly-crushed. Instead, you stuck-it-out, working until dark and did something that raised the morale of the whole neighborhood. Help did arrive, there was progress despite troubles. The home looked part of the neighborhood again. Glad the grumpy neighbor apologized.

"I reported to the city" That's why the city is fining them, wow that was so neighborly of you, thank you for making their lives one step harder!

Doesn’t matter if you were making money or not. You are legally allowed to clean up a yard and use equipment during the day. His work schedule is not your problem.

Ugh, makes me so mad... families are struggling to just live. Such hard times for good people. The mortgage companies should walk in their clients shoes. My heart goes out to all those in this situation 💔. I have 30 acres in Virginia, I've allowed numerous families shelter and a beginning. This home is absolutely lovely, tlc needed but heck they all need a face lift. THANK YOU for adding some love to this home, the family will see a blessing, and remember a real lived home

If he was truly concerned, he could pitch in and help. I'm glad he came back and apologized.

I don’t think he tried to assault you at all. Once you explained what you were doing he was as good as gold . Great work 👏👏🇬🇧

From someone who has a swing shift worker in the family, maybe carry a cheap pair of ear plugs to give out if necessary. At least he was nice at the end. Keep up the good work!

It takes a big man to apologise so he made amends .Great job my friend ,so good to see someone helping families in need .👍👍

You do excellent work Mark. That guy was very disrespectful towards you, until you explained that you do the work for free. I would have offered him a set of ear plugs. I hope you have a great day ❤️🙂⚘️🚜.

Thank you for your compassion.

I feel bad for that family losing their job and home... hope they're doing ok🙏🙏🙏

Wow. That neighbour's is a goof. He even knew the people were struggling and hes just worried about himself. Free or paid service, people are allowed to do things during the day. I hope that guys sees the comments and changes his attitude. Question...do you help Outdoors with Eric? You look familiar. Great job by the way.

happy to see the guy apologized at least

And he's the one who reported them to the city...I guess the grass growing kept him awake too? What a great neighbor

I was glad to hear the Man apologize. He was Man enough to realize he was wrong, and tried to make it right.

Glad to see the neighbor reconsider his approach to you. Great job. You've improved the neighborhood and helped someone who really needed it.

Glad the angry neighbor apologized and later brought you a drink! Thanks for the video.

As a former toddler, I too would get upset when I was woken from a nap. But I got over it

i was having the worst day myself , i am one of those guys who almost never cries about anything , except today ! But that all changed after your sunshine filled video brought me me back, thanks for the smile you gave me , really , really needed it .

You did a fantastic job on this yard. It looks great. Kudos to the upset neighbor that came back over and apologized for his actions!❤

FANTASTIC JOB! Sad that the lady hit some bad times. It could be anyone of us.....a person never knows, but THANK GOD, that there are people like yourself that come to the rescue! 👍💯😎

We need more people like this gentleman in our community. That's rare you come across someone That's willing to aid others when they're at their lowest. Much respect 🙏 brother. God bless you and your family. 😊

First timer here. Great job Sir thanks for your kindness. I think it was very cool of the neighbor to apologize, we all understand the situation Kindness, helping and understanding of one another is what we need more of in this world in my humble opinion. The before and after's are wonderful 😀

I worked 3rd shift. I wore earplugs. I would never expect anyone to change their daytime activities. He didn't approach you in a nice way. I would think they would like the blight cleaned up. Great work.

That neighbor is something else

No one could go wrong by hiring this guy to work for them, if he has the time. This is so satisfying.

This man is improving the yard of this house, working hard and during the daytime and this neighbor asks him to stop working because he is attemtping to sleep? You would think that he would appreciate how hard this man is working as well as making the home look clean and well groomed, something sorrounding neighbors would appreciate living near and seeing.

Awe, you interrupted the neighbor and he knows the family is struggling and said he reported the lawn. He's a real kid person!!!!!

Great work and glad to see he apologized . You never what is going on in someone's life

that neighbor should've cleaned his neighbor's yard instead of complaining and watching next door neighbor get evicted knowing they're struggling, you're a kind heart soul and God will bless you and your family for all your kind deeds

The Neighbor Is A Jerk. You Did A Great Job 👍

Man, you handled yourself far better than I would have! 😡Somebody comes up behind me and jabs my shoulder to get my attention, they'd have been flat on the ground with my startled reaction...Trimmer still runnin near his face. I don't know about where you guys live, but here we have noise ordinance here in Lakewood, Washington that says we can run equipment etc from 7 am to 9pm. That is the normal "work day" so if anybody has a problem with that, like several of your viewers said, the city suggests foam earplugs and running a fan to help with the noise. He sure took it down a notch when you told him you weren't earning a dime from what you were doin. THEN He had the audacity to admit he KNEW about the owner's problems but reported him anyway. ((insert several cuss words here!)) It shouldn't matter if you are doin it for a paycheck or out of the goodness of your heart... newsflash... the world doesn't revolve around him. Ugh people like that irk the crap outta me. He came back to apologize and got you something to drink.. you were kind enough to shake his hand and thank him for his kindness. I hope he did honestly feel badly. Sometimes it takes someone holdin a mirror up so that we can see our ugly hearts. This is the first video I've seen of yours and I will be watchin more. Thank you for the work you are doin in the community. 💛🖤💛

You sir have a huge heart and a greater understanding of how to help someone who has a lot more problems than most. God bless you!

Mark, you’re a great man with a huge heart❤ And sorry bout that neighbor; however, your neighbors don’t schedule ANY of their lawn or house repairs around your 3rd shift. It’s just life & we half to find ways to sleep around it. My dad worked 3rd shift with 4 kids under 10 running & screaming in & out of the house. He wore ear plugs, bought a loud room fan. ❤

This is the first of your videos that I've seen. Thank you for your kindness. You have a new subscriber ❤😊

I bet it was the other neighbors horn honking that woke him up 😮, you just got the blame! Nice he came back to make amends. First time watching. Great job overall. Extra Kudos for helping a family in need! ❤😊

I'm a 3rd shift nurse for 19 years. I turn on my two box fans when I sleep during the day. I don't hear anything including the train that runs a block from my house.

How nice of you to help this family out. How strange that the neighbors know that families having a very hard time yet no one offered to help them.

Forget that neighbor!!!!

Now he is embarrassed, I hope you leave a card for him, too. Maybe he can donate, or pass on so random act of kindness to another.

Can’t tell you how much I would’ve enjoyed helping with that project. Now that I’m retired, projects like that is all I spend my time on at my house and I really enjoy it. Great job!!!

I love hanging out with my cats and bees in the yard but when the leaf blower noise becomes constant and long, it can get frustrating at times. I totally get the neighbor but I’m also thankful to people like you who keep the neighbors clean and neat.

I just found your channel. You're a great guy! 👍

Great job again 👍💯👏🙏

LOL, obviously Nobody in the top comments watched the full video. Good on the neighbor for being able to see things through the eyes of others instead of just himself!!

You're doing a fantastic job Mark, keep it up, the world needs more people like you

Hey Mark, turned out really nice. It sure would be nice if people could be nicer in the world, especially to the people who make a difference. Thanks for video & content.

Great job, sorry about nasty people.

I commend and admire you for your contribution to helping those in need and helping unburden them with their living situation. Thank you, and thank you for giving me that there is hope for humanity.

Beautiful work, you made such a difference. Thank you.

You did a good deed indeed ❤❤❤

yes

Thank you for what did for these people. It's nice to see there are still people that will help others in their time of need.

THANK U VERY MUCH FOR HELPING A PERSON IN NEED. IN NEED ! NOT WANT.

That looks just a bit set up.

Noise- serious, he is nuts

Great work. I’m happy that there are peoples like him doing this for free. That neighbor was an jerk, but at least he came back to apologize.

That is a cute thing to come over and apologize and to admit he acted irrationally, but what a good guy for doing that. 👏🏻👍🏻

The world would be so much more of a beautiful place if it had more people with a heart like yours in it. God bless you Sir.

Some people need sleep. Some people need their yard done. No difference.

Awesome transformation. Thank you for caring for this family and the community. God bless your ministry. Washington viewer.

You're wonderful and charitable beyond words. Loved the before and after montage. Thanks for the spirit of helping out those who need it.

Looks very nice. Thank you for doing this for them. You have a kind heart

That's awesome work that you do for those on hard times - our country needs more men like you. May GOD bless you and your family!! Roy
