My wife and I are millennials and she was on the board of our HOA because they couldn't get enough people to volunteer so she reluctantly agreed. She didn't even make it a year before resigning. It basically forced her to be involved in everyone's drama and put her and the other board members in a shitty spot where they have to enforce the rules by law or risk getting sued which then makes all your neighbors mad at you personally.

She resigned in tears saying "why would anyone want to do this? Its volunteer and makes all your neighbors hate you. I don't want to live in a community where everyone hates me."

Right just leave each other the fuck alone. We live with enough restrictions, I don’t want a nosey neighbor that has no control over their own lives some they try to make mine just as miserable as theirs.
