The trashman has a pretty easy life; most of them live either at Panther Creek or Tara Hills and a vast majority of them also have summer homes in the Hamptons.<BR/><BR/>I would never tip a trashman; if they do their jobs right, I am sure they get paid handsomely enough. And I refuse to help someone live lavishly while I am relegated to driving around town in a brand new Toyota Corolla and eating lobster bisque for lunch.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9895345.post-78718124125862667042007-12-20T13:02:00.000-06:002007-12-20T13:02:00.000-06:00I'm pretty darned sure they get paid more than I d...I'm pretty darned sure they get paid more than I do.<BR/> <BR/>College degree, information age! What a wasted of time.<BR/> <BR/>Sure I get to work in a comfy office setting, on my tush all day, but the money - that's what's important.<BR/> <BR/>Drop out of High School kids, and go into something that will pay.<BR/> <BR/>And kids, people will actually tip you for Christmas!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
