In rural areas, it's not uncommon to have long individual or shared driveways that aren't serviced by public services, instead being completely up to the owner/s to maintain. This can present some tricky situations for the unprepared in areas that regularly or irregularly receive heavy snowfall, where they might wake up one morning and find themselves unable to leave their home. The generous and thoughtful thing to do, if you have the proper equipment, is to plow your neighbor, ensuring they can leave and return to their home. This often takes a lot of time and hard work, so you wouldn't want to do it for someone who is ungrateful.
You'd think that there wouldn't be anyone who would take issue with a free service, particularly one they weren't able to handle themselves. But, as always with these things, there are those in this world capable of complaining and making issues out of anything. This neighbor was one of those types, choosing to take issue with the fact that her neighbor didn't plow her driveway after consecutive snowfalls, even going as far as leveling criticism on social media. The thing was, she hadn't offered thanks or made any effort when he had done it previously; instead, she seemingly expected it to be done as a thankless obligation each time it snowed.
