'He was fuming, but I didn't care': Resident gains extra yard space and hundreds of dollars in neighborly dispute

Neighborly arguing is bound to happen when property lines get fuzzy, and the truth becomes a prize to be sought after, even though one side is clearly bending it to their favor. I have had my fair share of neighborly disputes, whether it was because some people were simply very loud, inconsiderate, or entitled. Unfortunately, I did not win every case, but the ones I did are etched in my memory like a 1st grade participation award. 

In this case, the OP was dealing with the type of person who thinks your grandma owes them cookies and pocket money. You get the idea. This clever OP had to get creative with how he was going to react to his neighbor trying to take his yard, and luckily, he found a way. To say OP won would be an understatement. Scroll down to read about it, and then check out this fleet foreman who took the techs with him when quitting his job with managers who were ungrateful. You might not want to mess with the best employees… lest you be left with nothing.
