I hope all you American readers had a nice Labor Day. Monday
holidays mess with garbage pickup day here in the states. My garbage is normally
picked up on Thursday but some weeks when there’s a Monday holiday the schedule
gets delayed a day and the trash gets picked up on Friday. I find it
challenging trying to remember which of the holidays delay trash pickup and
which don’t. There’s always at least one guy on the block who takes his trash out
a day early on those weeks when there’s the one day delay, and he gets up
before I do and takes his garbage out when it’s still dark outside. So I take mine
out too. (Maybe if he didn’t get up so early he’d remember the right day to
take out his trash.) So, yeah, I come home after work on those weeks and go out
to the curb and start wheeling the trash can back to the house only to realize
it’s still full. So then I look around, and make sure no one’s looking, and
slink back into the house. It’s humbling.
Here’s a question! If your mailbox is on the other side of
the street, can you wheel your garbage over there too? Should I not be doing
that?
