As I bike to work following the recycling truck, a street kid/homeless dude walks by and says “Pretty shitty job?” to the man throwing a bag in. He replies “It’s not a bad job at all”. Fuck Ya!

any job that is decent and earns a living isn’t a bad job. at least the recycler doesn’t have to bum money like the squeege kids.
Come to think of it, a recycling truck job wouldn’t be bad. You don’t really have to think much and you don’t have to deal with customers. Also, you’re always on the move so it’s not like it’s boring and stagnant. Plus, it’s outdoors.
maybe the streetkid just wanted/needed to talk (to anybody)… ya know?
