Everyone dreams of the day their annoying neighbor moves out, but not that many people get the opportunity to make that moving process a living nightmare. This resident of a two-condo home had a ton of friction with the downstairs neighbors, who tended to shirk their collective responsibilities. This naturally led to a ton of resentment from the resident upstairs, who recently learned they were planning to sell their condominium.

The resident knew his neighbors would likely make life more difficult for him during this process, so he decided to get back at them by stalling their sale. When he was on vacation, the downstairs neighbors contacted him to formally approve that the new residents could move in, as was customary in their condominium agreement. However, the resident decided to give his soon-to-be-former neighbors a taste of their own medicine by waiting until the last possible minute to approve that the move could continue. One can imagine the headache this caused for everyone else involved. I guess this all could have been easily avoided if the folks downstairs had shown an ounce of neighborly respect over the years.
