[quote=Anonymous]Those are loud and obnoxious noises that early in the day. Your DH is perfectly capable of grinding the beans the night before, or --gasp-- buying beans already ground (or grinding them at the store.) He doesn't NEED to be a dick at 6 am. He's choosing to because it's his right...he's standing his ground...is he from Florida by chance? You don't NEED an offing smoothie every day. You can have smoothies on weekends and eggs and toast or fruit and yogurt (isn't that what a smoothie is) like a normal person. Or just do your precious smoothie 1 or 2 days a week (and let the man know which days) and STFU the rest of the week. This guy might work swing shift or nights and have a legitimate reason to be sleeping at that time. Your'e purposely and selfishly waking him up twice every morning for nonessential reasons. He's asking you nicely to dial it down and you're getting defensive and indignant which is why so few people actually talk to the person who is causing the problem vs going nuclear and contacting management right off the bat. Do the right thing and be a good neighbor...be the neighbor you would want. Come up with 2-3 solutions to the problem, let him know what they are and what his suggestion is, and then implement the change(s) and check in with him to see if they help. Just making an effort will go a long way toward good relations.[/quote]
