Working with garbage is fun as hell. Everyone looks down on garbage men, but really its one of the better jobs. I cant speak for the guys that collect the garbage in he bins outside your house, but the guys that drive the roll-off trucks love their job. If we have a box at some random or weird location, instead of dumping it at a landfill (or wherever it is meant to go), we will sift through it for some cool shit. Always great when you find some neat stuff that other people thought was garbage. In this sense, it is one of those jobs that is always changing - you'll never have the same day twice. I have a different perspective than most, but the guys I have talked to love their job.
