I had to make a run to the tip today. as I was pouring 25lts of used engine oil into the recycle tank a Merc Sprinter pulled up. It had the back doors open with wood sticking out which went all the way through and out the passengers door window. The guy then struggled and huffed and puffed sliding these bits of wood out. The tip guy comes up after the guy has managed to get them out and then proceeded to snap them by standing on them so making several shorter lengths and then chucking them in the skip. As he walked by me the tip guy smiled and said "simple" to which I replied "yea and making the wood shorter was easy to".

..... The tip guy comes up after the guy has managed to get them out and then proceeded to snap them by  ......

I'm surprised the tip guy managed to get his arse out of his cabin! A few years ago I asked him to give me a lift with a wet carpet I'd dragged out the back of my car over the wall into the skip below. 'Can't' he said 'not allowed'. 'OK' I said, 'the carpet will have to stay here cos I can't manage to lift it on my own' ......... he helped!  ::) ::)

They are reproducing before they've had a chance to remove themselves from the gene pool these days. That's the problem. ;)
