Workers need to check with the OWNER if it's okay, not just what a HOA tells them, AND they need to say "we need proof that they're a member" at the very least, else I would sue them for vandalism.
I’ve done radio and know that the FCC is no joke about their regulations. I have NEVER thought that those prank calls were funny and I am delighted that OP pranked that morning team of jocks right back.
Put it to you this way - I have not worked in radio and so you are probably more familiar with the regulations (particularly regarding to prank calls) than I am. That said, I am not a fan of most DJ stunts/games including prank calls. Most stations are better off having the DJs shut up and play music.
With the Electric Fence story, the OP should have taken her brother and put his hand on the live wires of the fence. That would have gotten her point across quite nicely. If you don’t know what is going on completely, then don’t try to help, she could have gotten seriously hurt.
I was fixing an electric fence once when my two brothers decided to plug the fence in. I was just a little mad until I saw them laughing. The next 2 hours are a blank space in my memory and I remember that they were running away from me when I started coming out of my rage. They told me that I had thrown several things at them including an axe and a baseball bat. Needless to say, they were careful not to try that again. After Dad plugged it in while I was working on it a few months later, I started taking the fence charger with me when I had to work on the fence.
My parents divorced back in the late 70s when I was around 13 or so. My mother never remarried or even dated in order to take care of all of my siblings still under 18, 2 boys and a girl My father started dating a woman who I will call karen who we COULD NOT STAND Dad ran his own business that he built up himself and hired (eventually) all of his sons and one daughter. Karen was never an official employee of the company, but due to her relationship with my dad, she acted as if she was the boss herself. She took the daily receipts, ordered us around and generally, made our lives miserable for decades, all of which time, she and my dad never married. Eventually, my dad died and left us the business. She "claimed" that she had just as much a stake in the business as the rest of his children but didn't have a legal leg to stand on She got the house that they lived in for almost thirty years together and the side businesses they started together (which she ran into the ground in months because she has no business skills) but nothing else I'm happy to say that I haven't even seen her in over 20 years BTW, her daughter and grandchildren were just like her
Second story: Besides the green I would have included a middle finger and beneet it the phrase "F*ck off". Susan would instantly know it was directed at her.
I would have slapped a lawsuit against each board member personally for the harassment they gave and also sued the HOA but the president would be at least 50 000
Title Story: Call the police. trespass the HOA and all of their agents from your property. If they ever so much as set foot on your property again, have them arrested. And sue for harassment the split second you have grounds. Do not mess around with half measures with these people or they will have your home from you before you even know what happened.
