The Bin Men are on Strike and our bins still haven't been emptied.
Why, because i live in Leeds, have i not had my bins emptied for a month? because fucking Bin Men don't realise that if they want to earn more, they could fuck off and train or have paid more attention at school.
Whilst most of the private sector has been hit hard by the current, economic climate, most have accepted the 5% to 10% pay cuts that have been imposed. Forgive me if i'm wrong but that's because people wanted to keep their jobs.
Why don't the council simply sack the fucking morons and negotiate with a private firm like Biffa? I understand that things aren't that simple (i'm not a bin man) but there's got to be something they can do.
BIN MEN - Wake up and realise that you work in the private sector and that Gordon and his boys have clearly stated that there will be hundreds of job cuts to keep the essential staff in jobs. £18k for emtying bins, a completely un-skilled job, is fantastic pay and if the people stating that they'll lose £6k per annum are on over £20k, i have even less sympathy.
Play ball and go back to work.
Love,
Mr Angry
