When I am doing stuff at night I try to be as quiet as possible. The morning people could follow this until 11 am.
Depending on location, it's too freaking hot to be doing yard work anytime past 11 in the summer months. 9 - 11am is usually when I get my shit done.
Then again, with my neighbors have a similar work schedule to me, so I guess I'm not bothering anyone.
Exactly! All those hospital workers on the night shift can go without sleep.
A lot of us work at night. My bed time is 8am. Why exactly do you deserve sleep more than I do just because I'm on a different equally necessary schedule?
I just don't understand why it's necessary to be a nuisance to other people inside their homes at any hour on any day, outside of necessary rare events such as work being done on the house with power tools. I manage to live my life without creating a noise that could conceivably wake someone at any hour of any day more than once a month or two. I view people blasting loud music, letting their dogs bark for hours on end, mowing lawns with deafening machinery, and so on as the equivalent of walking around my house banging pots and pans together. I know you think of it as "necessary" but I assure you that it isn't. You're loud because you don't care about the disturbance you cause people, not because you truly have to be.
