92 - Dustbin men

I can't imagine that being a dustbin man is one of the most popular jobs in the world. Maybe some kids think that's want they want to be when they're younger - I wonder how long that lasts.

Yet it's a job that needs to be done. I remember the dustbin men going on strike in Southampton once - not pretty. We need people to do this job, yet how often do we leave our bins out on a Monday morning and take it for granted that they will be emptied? We'd soon notice if they weren't!

God, thank you for those who regularly empty our bins - a job that must be so thankless, yet is so important. May I never overlook the importance of people like this.
