If somebody who worked for you and was also a close friend, did something that required you to discipline them, possibly suspend them could you do it? Definitely (albiet, would be uncomfortable).  If they were truly a friend, they would consider the effects of their actions on others before doing same.

If you have a NEW neighbor with an annoying animal (ie, outdoor cat getting in garage & spraying/damaging, dogs constantly barking, etc.), would you: 

a) gently confront the neighbor with your concerns, suggestions, requests, etc;

b) not mention it to the neighbor, but contact the homeowner's association (if you have one) and start to 'get to know' the neighbor anyway;

c) completely shut out/ostrocize the neighbor;

d) other?
