As some of you may know, I am the apartment manager of my building, and one of my grosser chores is keeping the garbage alley with the dumpsters clean and in shape. This is an ongoing battle because the large homeless population is apparently dedicated to ripping open the bags and scattering filth far and wide. They especially like to throw food in the recyling bins, thus contaminating the load, and I get to climb in the bin and clean it all out. I have found filthy underwear, unopened food packages from shelters, and raw eggs smashed and smeared into the recycling, to name just some of the more pleasant items. (We won't get into the human feces.) So I FINALLY get permission from my boss to lock the bins and keep people out of there, and what happens? Some @#$!!!%%^@# uses a BOLT CUTTER to cut the cord and throw GARBAGE in the RECYLING BIN!!! RAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHH!
DEATH! MURDER! YOU ALL WILL PAY!!!!!!!!!
And of course it's the weekend so I can't get hold of the garbage people until Monday so I get to clean out the bins all weekend! Yay!
Anyway, that's why I hate garbage.

That is retarded! If I were you, I would try to find other ways to stop the homeless people. Tall fences with barbed wire, or perhaps run a 25,000 volt charge through the dumpsters. That last one is a joke  Still, maybe you can find an internal lock, so no one can open it without a key. |

I wonder if it's worse in the US of A. Generally, we are a pretty spoiled people. I include myself in that too.
And I think thats breed a nation of entitlement. We expect to have whatever we want, and to do whatever we want and to hell with consideration for the other guy.
Driving down the freeway I get that everyday. Someone cutting me off or not allowing me to merge into traffic (God forbid I get ahead of them). It's the one place I try to be better than my fellow nimrods and show some consideration for the poor slob whose trying to get into my crowded lane, by back off and giving them a gap.
Your garbage story is bothersom and I'm sory to read that. I fear satre was right, "Hell is other people"

I don't care much for the band Garbage either but I guess that's another thread.

Why go through the trouble of buying bolt cutters, cutting the lock, and throwing garbage in it?
Isn't it easier to simply go to another garbage?

What sort of idiot would throw garbage into a recycling bin? And why would they go so far as to go bathroom in it too?

Your garbage story is bothersom and I'm sory to read that. I fear satre was right, "Hell is other people" I lived in Europe for 6 years, MJ, and have traveled a lot and teach people from many different countries. I've probably taught maybe 1,000 or more adults in the last decade. I can tell you: PEOPLE ARE JUST AS BAD EVERYWHERE! Just in different ways. American bad ways are bad, but so are all the others. But I think in every time through out history people have said things are out of hand, the world is coming to an end, etc. Oh, by the way, Mrs. PT, why don't you just scare those people with your knees? |
