| Comment | Trying to play Devil’s Advocate here, just because I personally know a council refuse collector and he is constantly knackered from the work he does. That van in the video doesn’t collect normal bags of rubbish, it only collects ‘special uplift’ items hence the mattress in the back. They could also be on a break where they can have a snooze is they want to. My friend regularly takes a nap during his lunch.
On the flip side, I’ve been waiting for the council to collect a load of junk that was fly-tipped outside my flat for 3 months now, and again, it’s a different branch of the waste department so I find it frustrating when the bin lorry comes to empty my bins and doesn’t just chuck the fly-tipped stuff in at the same time. Bureaucracy in action, I guess. |
