As a profession, that is completely lazy and poor technique.

As a neighbor or someone just mowing their own lawn, this is inconsiderate laziness.

In both cases, this is inefficient work. You should always trim the edges first, then blow all the clippings and other debris back off the paths and gutter onto the lawn. Then the lawn mower sucks it all up and, in some cases, you may not even need to get the blower out afterwards.
