Last week, in the morning while I was at school, my next door neighbor hired some professional yard workers to trim her hedges. One of these workers was relatively new at the job, and caused my family a lot of trouble.
My driveway is separated from my neighbor's driveway by her hedge, and the young, inexperienced yard worker needed to use my driveway in order to cut the hedge all the way around. He didn't even come to the door to ask for permission to use my driveway, which I feel was his responsibility. Somehow, while trimming the hedge, he cut straight through my phone line, which meant that my house didn't have any internet, TV or phone for about 24 hours. Needless to say I was pretty upset.
Thankfully it was during the week, so I could use the internet at University, and I wasn't inconvenienced very much. The next day someone came over to fix the problem. He told me that the yard worker was very lucky, because he almost cut through the main power line, which would have electrocuted him.
