Maybe we should reduce the amount of shit we have to throw away.
But also maybe pay the garbage men fairly, and tell the business or municipality that the garbage collection is insufficient for their needs.
reduce, reuse, recycle.
That shit is in order of most impactful.
I buy as much as I can second hand. Doing so, I am not bombarded with trash. No boxes, no bags, no plastic wrap.
We should 100% just not be producing all this trash. Coffee at home has zero waste, no plastic cup, no receipt, no carrier, no lid,...... do that shit everyday x millions of people. smh
Coffee elsewhere is the exact same as long as you bring your own cup
For sure.
Don't garbage men have surprisingly handsome pay? Or is that just an urban legend I've fallen for?
They are. But Sanitation workers wouldn’t be emptying any of these bins in my experience as a guy who lives in the US.
Oh, for sure. Most of these ones in the image seem like they should be taken out by an employee of whatever restaurant or gas station they're at, placed into a dumpster, and then taken away. I forgot to even address the fact that sanitation workers have fuck-all to do with the pictured garbage; good call.
They get paid more than most people would think but it's still not enough based on the hazards of the job. They get exposed to all sorts of nasty things that can ruin their long term health and they have increased likelihood that they'll get a life-altering injury at work.
Hey I don't see any garbage men going on cruises in the bahamas or the carribbeans.
They don't wear their coveralls on cruises. They wear their swim suits like everyone else. Smh.
Those cruise ships must be filthy
Yeah, OP is complaining to the internet when they should be bugging town council. Although they seem to think it's just low-wage workers messing with them personally...
