Bright idea

Today, at 2 in the morning, a noisy work crew started up in the parking lot next to my apartment. What were they doing at that ungodly hour? Installing a light that now shines right into my window. FML

Fall

Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.

# 13, YDI for living near black people? That has to be one of the most baseless, asinine comments i've read in a while. What does putting a new streetlight have to do with the racial demographic of the area this person is living in? FYL for being an ignorant moron!

Dont worry theropod this shitty situation is fixable. Get thick curtains, sue, move your bed to another direction etc etc. The possibilities are limitless. When i first read this i laughed cause it reminded me of that episode of 'Married with Children'. Al Bundy faced the same exact problem xD

Blackout curtains are your new best friend.

Black out curtains.

Oh yeah, thanks for reminding me :D

Get some curtains or blinds. Or better yet, complain. They have to listen; otherwise, you should protest the company and get to the higher ups attention. When all else fails, sue them.

well since you were up while he was out there, knock'im off his ladder

I agree, that would have been the best solution. Or at least the most entertaining.

Why in the hell would they put up a light at two in the morning?

To make sure it works???

So they don't have to worry about traffic.

There are laws which prohibit "noise pollution" and "light pollution". Call the police or the EPA about the construction site — I believe the hours for those sorts of things are from 7am to 10pm.
