oh i didn't know that. what else is there to do? besides collecting garbage and riding the sweeper? is riding the collection truck what most people want to do?
In some districts where the men are smart and dont run and dump there are relays. A relay is taking the truck to the dump. That is a pretty good gig depending where you are you can do anywhere from 2 to 4 relays. In other districts they send you out with a broom, shovel and basket and have you clean the streets. The latter is pretty much what you will be doing 90 percent of the time.

Actually no it wouldnt be. Those districts usually have a lot of senior guys and you would be very low there for a while. Your best bet is go to a district close to your home and when you get time on the job transfer to a better district.

Well you do ride the collection truck but not for collection. You put the bucket, shovel and broom on the collection truck and go where they tell you to and do your street cleaning.
