IRRITATING NEIGHBOURS! Any of you experienced that?

The neighbour above me is refurbishing, and will do so until at least April, I’ve been told. Hammering and constant drilling whose sound becomes louder when it goes into the wall and down to me. I have a home office, and basically can’t do my job (right now, for example, I need to sample thousands of 2025 soundtracks for the annual ‘top 10’ podcast….nope, impossible). And that’s on top of the tinnitus and all that. I can barely even stay in my apartment, much less do my job.

Meanwhile, the neighbour BELOW me is awake all night, and keeps walking around and slamming doors and cupboards. And I mean all night. He starts at about midnight and keeps going until 6-7 in the morning. So no night sleep either. Noise at night, noise in the day, noise in my head. Can’t really go outside for a long time either, as temperatures are freezing (-5 to -10 at the moment).

Damn them all to hell!
