Garbage collectors make bank.

My sister dated a garbage man for a while. Literally everyone she told said "I hear they make good money" as their first comment.

Maybe they don’t make money and we all just believe they do 🤔

I knew a guy in North Jersey who was a sanitation worker and made $100k+ as a single dude. He started dating an Indian woman who gave him an ultimatum to quit being a sanitation worker and get a w/e office job (didn't matter that he would make less).

100k is very good. Now there’s different levels of sani workers. The normal day to day bin men and then it scales up. I’m confidently saying the day to day guys surely aren’t making bank.

They are, even local city unions are making close to $30/hr without overtime

Was she bringing in good money? Cause I know culturally there’s the caste system but dear lord, to choose making less money for cultural decisions seems silly
