Ode to the Garbage Guys

[vraiblonde]

Garbage guys, garbage guys
How I love you so
You take my trash to the dump
So I don't have to go

I throw my clippings in the can
You remove them with a smile
Boxes, beer bottles, leftover food
And things that are most vile

Oh garbage guys, garbage guys
I look forward to your visit
Though some may think you're icky
I think you are the shizznit

I have to be inspired. Garbage guys are the unsung heroes of America, as far as I'm concerned.

When my tank is full
and the odor is stong
I pick up the phone
and you come along.
You pump out my tank
and take it with you
Where do you go
with all of that poo?

When my son was three, when asked what he wanted to be when he grew up, he used to say "a garbage man" Now at 18, he won't even take the garbage out!

Why is it that they'll only pick up "approved" containers?

Sweet! We have Waste Mismanagement.

 

[Cowgirl]

Do you recycle?

I don't. Penn and Teller told me it was a waste of time and money. :shrug: They were very convincing.

 

[Dork]

I'm not much into the recycling thing anymore. I finally got tired of hauling my stinky garbage to crowded compactor site and am now getting trash pick up. This is money well spent. I did have a delimma when it came to recycling though. Do I pay extra to get someone to pick that up? Do I continue to haul this to the compactor sites? Do I just throw it all in the nice big trash can that Calvert Trash provides and forget about it?

Let's just say it all fits in the can. If it bothers anyone, you are welcome to dig it out of my trash on Thursday evenings. And, as an added bonus, I get to the use yellow recycling bin for storing some of my tools in.

Well, I dutifully pretend to recycle everything I can, although the present scheme of having glass jars, plastic bottles, aluminum cans, and steel cans all tossed into the same big container makes me wonder if they really do recycle it or just weigh it to see if our county has met the recycle percentage quota and then just landfill it with the rest of the stuff.

Oil Man, Oil Man deliver fast
Moms in the shower and the hot aint gonna last
Thank you, Oil Man for the visit
and for locating our tank.
We knew you couldnt miss it.
And please remember us in the winter
I hate having to shiver me timber

Where I live, you put all of your recyclables into the ugly yellow bin, and put it on the curb next to the trash can on trash day. A truck comes around and picks everything up. They have separate compartments cut into the side of the truck and sort everything right at the curb. Very snazzy.
