When we were kids, my younger brother wanted to be
a garbageman.
He figured they only worked on Tuesdays......
When we were kids in the summer, two favorite things:
Follow the garbage truck on our bikes and follow the mosquito spray truck on our bikes.
My mother told me when I was very little that if I didn’t behave, the garbage man would put me in the truck and take me away...
I would hide whenever they came by...
And they got to ride on the back of the truck.
Hell yeah we all wanted to be garbagemen. I was fortunate enough to see the final days of the milkman and that one ranked right up there with the garbageman.
I actually was a garbageman for a while.
Garbage PICK UP IS CRITICAL WORK.
WE FAIL TO APPRECIATE THE SERVICE THEY DO FOR ALL OF US.
I am thankful for their service.
