'Entitled grandpa... refuses to pay': Teen gets enlisted into doing unpaid chores by pushy neighbor

One man's trash is another man's treasure—just ask this neighbor. Or any neighbor, for that matter. Almost all of us have had the experience of walking by our neighbor's house and spotting a box marked "free." These boxes can be filled with any number of "treasures," ranging from old DVDs to books to clothing or shoes. Some of it is certainly still destined for the trash, but to find a great book or a barely-used bag is a cool way to recycle.

For u/TobeRez's neighbor, that trash-turned-treasure appeared in the form of grass clippings for his horses. You'd think as a horse owner you'd know what they can and can't eat (or would care enough to look that up). As some helpful commenters pointed out, horses can't snack on grass clippings. They could choke, cause stomach issues or hoof pain, and if none of that hurts the horse, grass clippings still contain too much sugar for them. So this dude was well-meaning, but he wasn't exactly nice to his young neighbor. At least the teen in this story learned a lesson for next time: sometimes it's best to ask for money upfront before agreeing to do chores.

Up next, these workers shared their stories of why everyone at the workplace hates that one employee, such as the person who stole all of the pooled tips from the tip jar.
