Default I like to send a huge thanks to my neighbor!

without even a knock on my door my neighbor took it upon himself (after walking past trying to stare in my windows) to have several harassing discussions with my lawn/landscape guy. Never once came to me, my lawn guy filled me in and then quit.

Such a great neighbor to have, just wanted to thank him for a great well done job!

I'm not sure I understand what this means. It is not the place of your neighbor to have any discussions with your landscaper. The landscaper is employed by you. Any issues with your landscaper is your responsibility.

Your lawn guy quit. I assume like most of us you pay by the month. Will you be getting a refund?

Sounds like neighbor talked (i.e. argued) with landscaper about how he was cutting OP lawn - probably too close ot neighbor.

Landscaper said, instead of dealing with a PIA neighbor, ill find someone else’s lawn to cut.

I'd quit too rather than dealing with a PITA neighbor.

Another wonderful day in The Villages. Is your neighbor the one that turns the sprinklers on because of dog walkers?

and your Landscaper never heard it before from other jags on his route! Many people here dont have their faculties... your lawn guy was looking for a way out and got his excuse to run!

I'd fire my lawn guy but I can't. It's me.

Maybe he wants his lawn guy to cut both yards so they'll be the same...

Was it something egregious that he did to your neighbor? You need to get the neighbor straightened out or it will happen again

Having a bad neighbor sadly always leads to problems.
