HAIL TO THE HAULERS!
I usually like to joke about some of
the unusual "holidays" listed throughout
the year. But not this time! June 17th is
"National Garbage Man Day!" Now
you make know them by different names.
Perhaps Refuse Collectors or Recycling
crews. If not private haulers they're usually
members of your community's Street
Department. In my township our
collection day is Thursday. When our
grandson was only 5 he was with us
every collection day. He was fascinated
by the huge Garbage truck and anxious
to wave to the crew. They blew the horn
on the truck and always waved back. One
of the workers even held him up to get
a close up look at the truck's operation!
He was thrilled. I was appreciative of
their caring for the little guy. And let's
remember, these crews work in the
worst of the weather and always
around some pretty smelly stuff!
So let's all salute the "Garbage Man"
on this special day. Don't "talk trash"
about these guys! Hope you get
your garbage out on time and that
all your NEWS is good!
