The Triumphant Garbage Man

So in my constant quest for efficiency I have always held fast to the rule that our family should only have one bag of garbage per week. Well, a small triumph for the city of Powell River occurred this garbage day as the garbage man was brave enough to affix an "overweight bag" sticker on my garbage. I laugh because my garbage bags have been overweight for years.

The picture really doesn't do this bag of garbage justice. If there was a hole in the bag, I could probably park the van inside of it. The thing weighs around 50 lbs! If I took this to the dump it would cost around $9 to dispose of on the scale, and I only placed one $2 sticker on.

So congratulations Mr. Garbage Man, you have won this battle, but be warned, this battle is far from over!

  3. Sucks for you, but thanks for the laughs after a long day at work. Maybe try 2 $2 stickers?
