PLFXpert 0 #1 June 20, 2007 I'm not upset, just observant. It seems someone takes the empty beer & soda cans from the recycle bins placed on our street on recycle day before the recycle man has arrived. No harm, no foul. Paint me in a corner, but my color comes back. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DougH 270 #5 June 21, 2007 I guess I am just an dick, but it kind of pissed me off when they dug threw the trash at my old apartment. There is just something bothersome about some asshole digging through the dumpster with a headlamp in the middle of the night while on private property.

jtval 0 #8 June 21, 2007 WHy dishonest? When I recycle I put the cans by the street. I don't get money for it. If some one wants to collect the cans and cash them in, good for them. now if they were diggin through the trash bin at night I would tell them to move on until daylight. people sleep at night.My photos My Videos Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

PLFXpert 0 #10 June 21, 2007 I admit, this is a first for me. It's a little strange, but I'm not really bothered by it. And where my recycle bin is placed on recyle day is technically city property--the whole three feet from the street thing.I'd probably have never known if it weren't for a recent change in our waste management and our recycle man must have been confused this week, as he did not come to pick up our street on the new recycle day. So the bin stayed out (we have a backup, as mine is ALWAYS overflowing), but each morning on my way out to Starbucks, I'd drop whatever recycles we had from the day before in the bin on the curb. And I noticed the cans from the day before I'd dropped were no longer there. So just for shits & giggles I purposefully put a few more cans out just to see if they, too, would disappear. And they did! It's weirdly amusing to me. We don't really have vagrants in my area, but there is this cute 'lil guy who rides around on his bicycle with three red wagons trailing behind full of cans.Paint me in a corner, but my color comes back.
