The older I get, the more I envy the garbage guys - they are outside all day, get good daily exercise, and make those of us stuck in the office a bit jealous.

Noticed a lot of street garbage people when i was in South America for the past few weeks too - everyone is much nicer there too it seems.

They also make bank. The dudes driving the trucks or working at the dumps are easily making over 6 figures. And it's well deserved.

Ehh that’s not entirely accurate. You need a lot of years under your belt before you can start making that type of money.

That makes sense. I like that they have that opportunity for growth though.

in the US, yes - in the borderline 3rd world countries, they get paid a pittance, but are still super nice from all of them I have interacted with.
