The recycling bin wasn’t picked up today. I thought my new sign was the be-all end-all of recycling difficulties, but I was apparently mistaken. I drove down the block trying to see who did and did not get their trash picked up and I believe I’ve discovered a pattern. The recycling man needs both a bin that says “recycle” or something to that affect and there can’t be a lid on the container. Smart bastard realizing that people use the recycling bin as a way to poison the garbage man and dispose of unwanted children. There’s no pulling the wool over his eyes.
