Quite frankly I find the fact that bin men are unhappy with their wages an outrage and I cannot believe this; they earn anywhere between £30,000 and £50,000 a year* with benefits including BUPA, company pension, free gym membership and they can keep anything thats being thrown out. I wouldn't mind but the fucking cunts don't even do a proper job any more.

Back in the day Binmen used to have to go up your path and CARRY your smelly, dirty plastic bags and then chuck them in the truck. THAT justified a good salary and benefits, I mean it must've been back breaking labour with the potential of being cut and hurt by the shit people threw out. Putting your back out was a serious possibility on a daily basis. These days they wont touch your bin if the handles are facing the wrong way or if its "too heavy". What is wrong with the public sector?!

With the advent of this recycling bullshit (and the council now making a fortune from it with all that lovely Aluminium and Steel you thought they were recycling for the good of the planet), the council should have made the old bin men redundant and created a new employment contract, one with much lower wages. The job is no longer the gruelling, arduous task for Mens Men it once was and can now be done by any chav straight out of school who've just failed GCSEs (not that it ever required brains, we just appreciated the brawn bin men needed and paid them accordingly).

Now we have a bunch of whiney cunts going on strike for a below inflation pay rise (yes public sector, you're not the only ones on this boat so fucking suck it up and tighten your belts like the rest of the country. What makes you so damn special, you're employed by US and WE'RE all having to do so) .

If I sound bitter about the bin men its because I am; I've had several run ins with mine over the years. The first involved the slack jawed yokles banging on my door at 7am for me to shift my car because it "was in the way of their truck". it wasn't, it was parked perfectly legally and they didn't want to drive around it. As I walked out, understandably sleepy, one of the cheeky fuckwits said "bit early for you" to which I growled "yeah, some of us work more than half a day and are capable of working in evenings". They didn't take it too well and I ensured my car was parked on our drive from then on, not to appease them, just to make sure the spotty, little scroat didn't scratch it.

I've also had the "bin too heavy" bullshit recently when I barely quarter filled my "green" bin with soil. I fail to see how the arms on the back of the truck can't lift a barely 40kg green bin. I ended up having to put the fucker on it's side and shovel it into individual black bin bags and simply used my black bin to get rid of them over 3 collections. How do you like them Apples, council fucks...

More recently I've left a note on my bin as the cunting dickholes have been purposely leaving our bin in the middle of our driveway so when I come home, the bin is bang in my path resulting in me having to move it prior to parking my car on my drive. It makes my piss boil more for the fact they're so fucking anal about the handles being out or they won't take a bin, like its too much effort to spin a bin 180 degrees and that justifies them not to do it.

The note simply said:

"If I have to drag my bin out to the front of my house AND ensure that it faces the right way to make your job easier, the least you can do is put it back where you found it and NOT block my drive"

I wanted to finish it with the word "Cunt" but my missus advised not to. It was a lesson in futility in any case and proved the reprobates who work the bins in my area can't even read. That, or the arrogant douchebags don't have to listen to the people who pay their wages.

Cunts to a Man.

* I'm struggling to confirm this deal but a quick google of uk bin man wages revealed this page... it's probably not far from the truth. Even if it is, you can't deny since the recycling trucks taking over that your jobs are as difficult any more yet you still earn a massive salary and didn't take a pay cut when your job became MUCH, MUCH EASIER. Sshut your fucking mouth and just be glad you still have a job.
