Garbage Day

For the second time in three weeks, the garbage man has refused to take one of my trash cans. I left out one trash can, a recycling bag, and an extra tiny bag of trash on the curb this morning. They left the full trash and slapped a form-letter sticker on it basically telling me to go and fuck myself, and also that they would only accept two trash cans per week. …Which meant that I was under the limit. I live in a basement suite, so it’s not like I’m paying the garbage collection directly, although I am paying well up the ass for my current living space. I have no idea what to do with the garbage if they don’t take it. I super don’t want to stuff it in my car and drive it to the dump. That’s what trucks are for, and I don’t have one. When I first moved here, I was stuck paying an extra month’s rent on my old place for not giving a full month’s notice, so in response to that, I would drive out there and leave all my extra garbage and recycling in their dumpster. That’s not really me being a dick. After all, I’m paying them a large, hefty sum for absolutely nothing. I had to turn in my keys and everything, so it’s not like I could go into the old place and hang out. Anyway, I don’t even want to get into a whole situation where I have to call up the garbage collection company and kindly ask them to stop being dicks, because that didn’t work out too well for Homer Simpson.
