'The leaves in question were already in the back corner': Lawn maintenance guy gets locked in left leaf battle with local Karen when she makes baseless complaints about alleged leaf leaving

Who knew that someone could get so twisted up about allegedly left leaves? Well, this Karen is incredibly particular when it comes to how she gets her yard work done. She's out there with a magnifying like Sherlock Holmes or Blue from Blue's Clues trying to solve the damned mystery of the missing blade of grass. 

When this lawn maintenance guy, who owns his own landscaping company, received a formal complaint from a client about the work that had been performed on her yard. She was outrageously claiming that the employee who had done the work had partaken in wanton leaf blowing and left leaves scattered around her yard. This was perplexing to the guy, as he had done the work himself… Yet, he thought he'd humor Karen and revisit her left leaves, which then escalated into complaints about which leaves weren't left. Sometimes you just can't win.

Keep reading for this glorious tale of leaf-leaving. For more leaf-leaving drama (because apparently, this is a thing), check out this viral post from last week involving a leaf collection company, a perturbed customer, and a gargantuan pile of the neighborhood's leaves.
