Neighbors can be hit or miss. Some offer you sugar, others test your patience—like mine did. On her birthday, my neighbor Jenna threw a loud party, then knocked on my door. I expected cake. Instead, she asked me to make my Wi-Fi public for her guests. I politely said no.
She frowned and left. Moments later, the music stopped… and my phone started ringing. Unknown numbers. Different languages. Guest after guest asking for my Wi-Fi. One even asked to use my bathroom because Jenna’s line was too long.
That’s when I realized—she had given out my number without asking.
So, I got creative. I posted in our local group chat that Jenna had a cozy room for rent at a steal. Her phone didn’t stop ringing for days.
Was it harsh? Maybe. But her pushiness crossed a line. A polite “no” should’ve been enough.
Sometimes, a little karma is just the right signal.
