      When I bought my new house I went out and bought two brand new trash cans 100 bucks a piece with little rolly Wheels. First time the trash man shows up to get my trash at my new house he dumps the trash then picks my cans up over his head and throws them into my yard as far as he can breaking off the little wheels. When I call to complain they basically told me to go f*** off and laugh at me for spending that much money on trash cans. I'm a mechanic by trade so I make sure that all of the cat litter we use to soak up oil and such on the floors goes home with me to go in my trash along with random cinder blocks and heavy s*** from work enjoy picking up all 250 lb of my trash every trash day until I move.

      In my city it's simple. You throw out a couch or big items you have to buy a tag from the city or it won't get picked up and the police will fine you for leaving it on the curb. It's cheaper to pay for the special ticket for the city garbage man to take it then pay a $200 ticket from the police. It's like $30 bucks to get rid of a coach so people learned real quick it wasn't worth having the cops fine them.

    I've always shown my garbage men respect, it's a tough job. When I was remodeling my first house I put a bunch of stuff by the curb that wasn't supposed to be there. I made sure that I was home when the truck came for pick up and I asked if it was ok for him to take the stuff I had put out. He said that he would take it so I helped put the garbage in his truck and thanked him. I asked him what kind of beer he liked and I would buy him a case. He told me that he was sober but liked Mt Dew. The next week I had 2 cases of Dew for him.

    A message to all the trashmen. When i was a little kid we lived in townhouses where we all shared one big dumpster. Trash day was the coolest thing ever for me. As soon as i heard the trash truck I'd run outside and just watch as the big truck lifts this massive dumpsters and dumps out the trash like a total badass. And the guys getting out grabbing all the extra bags flinging em into the back of the truck like the bags are just light as a feather. There was something so mesmerizing about watching how coordinated they all were. It was like as fast as they hop off the truck and lift the dumpster, they were gone. I know i never said it to you guys, but i thought you guys were total badasses. You made my day whenever you would notice me and wave back.

    I was a beer delivery guy for a time. One morning on our first stop after we delivered the beverages (it was a gas station) I grabbed a breakfast sandwich and a drink and took them to the counter. When I went to pay, I kept getting declined. I knew I had money in my account and I was like "dude no, this job is hard I have to have some food." The guy behind me was like "I'll get it." It was early and he was a sanitation dude getting ready for his route for the day. He payed for my quick breakfast without hesitation. I kept wanting to run into him again and return the favor but never got to.
    It turns out, someone messed up at the bank and issued everyone new debit cards, which inactivated all our current cards.

      Just glad to know my parents were "overly kind" as people use to tell me. He gave out gifts, money, etc all the time to people! As a kid i hated giving stuff so they would force me to do it. Taught me a valueable lesson by doing so!

    I loved this episode!!! He’s 1000 percent correct, if they just say “Thank You”, you’d take anything. For a summer, I worked as a garbage man, best job ever!! It was all manual labor then. People would leave money on be inside lid, case of beer, buying us lunch, it was great! We would bring their barrels up to their house for them for their generosity. But, like he said, you have those jackoffs who expected you to take & everything. They try to hide things underneath the trash thinking you wouldn’t know and we would take it & leave it on the curb or toss it on their lawn. They would come out bitching and we’d just drive away. Great episode Theo!

    Also a town/city worker here. I rode the back of the garbage truck solo dolo for 3 and a half years. Most miserable time of my life. This guy explains how it really is everyday doing that job. I’ve got the palm of my hand cut open cause people don’t care and had a window pane in a heavy ass bag. We deal with enough bullshit on a day to day basis and there truly isn’t enough compensation for the work that all these guys do. Like he simply said, you show me respect by giving us water on a hot day or just a simple thank you goes a long way!

Told me i was the first person in 12 years to make that offer....since then he puts my cans away after emptying each week.......love that man......

I used to clean sidewalks on foot and i had people literally throwing trash at me, see me coming and try to use my tools to clean out their car, homeless people run up to my cart and start rummaging, the entitlement because they pay property taxes... I ended up switching over to hotel housekeeping and the people are just as bizarre but at least it's air conditioned.

    Theo is low key a genius. Bringing in normal people we don’t know, getting them to open up about a life most of us don’t know, but also important, it’s a life that a lot of people know. My dad drove for waste management for almost 30 years. When I get home I’m sending him the link to the video I’m sure he’d appreciate it because nobody thinks or cares about the garbage man. This is awesome Theo! We hear celebs tell the same stories over and over on other podcasts that it gets annoying. But stuff we haven’t heard like this is awesome

    Wow this was an incredible peek inside the world of a garbage man, specifically to NYC etc. jobs like this are so essential and imagine having to smell what they smell and touch what they touch daily. Then add these entitled pieces of human garbage harassing these guys. This whole thing felt like it could be made into a movie with someone like Robert DeNiro and someone else as the younger guy. You can tell this guy has to deal with a lot of negative energy from people. Robots will be relaxing this job in a few years but it’s important to see these kinds of perspectives of such an essential job. When these guys strike, people freak out.

    When I was manager of a deli, I always took care of our garbage guys. Gave them free drinks or subs in exchange for them to do the occasional extra unscheduled pickup when I knew our dumpsters would get full before trash day. And at Christmas and new years I always gave them gift cards to get a few free meals. It may not mean much to some people, but they were always so appreciative. And trust me in the restaurant business the last person you want to piss off is the guys who pick up your garbage. A lot of restaurants will try and take care of the garbage crew, or at least in my area anyway.

As if the garbage man had opened it to see what was so stiff & then thrown it back. I called the city & they said they don’t take that unless it’s a clear bag. What a bunch of idiots.
