All of this snow made me think of a recent purchase our City Council just made. One man garbage trucks. The man will sit inside and operate a lift that picks up the giant can and dumps the garbage into the truck. I thought about that one man garbage truck and how an over sixty year old grandmother is supposed to get a 90 gallon can down from the side of the house to the street and back up again in weather like this. So what do you think? Will you be able to maneuver that giant can down to the street in the snow and ice? Is your driveway that wide? Will you be able to shovel a space big enough?
What about those emails telling us to keep our cars off the street? Okay, how do we do both of those things? Cars off the street and move the garbage can down to the corner.
Don't forget to shovel a place for that giant garbage can now folks.
Even on days without snow, the can will not fit without moving the car, but the car cannot be on the street. It will be in the way of the new and thoroughly modern One Man Garbage Truck. Egads!
