Will you get into a garbage truck for $200?  |
| |
| The day was bright and the birds were chirping. Next to this scene of beauty, a crowd was forming around a garbage truck. Yup, one of those vehicles carrying refuse stinky beyond words and if you are lucky, maggots and fleas as well. A lady was yelling at the truck driver, insisting that he gets in to retrieve her lottery ticket. Apparently, she had thrown away her winning ticket by mistake. The crowd got larger and the commotion got louder. After all, who isn't excited when talking about a huge sum of money? And since the lady was clearly reluctant to search the garbage truck herself, one of those there offered to help. The prize money was $10 million and he said he will offer his effort for just $100k. That lady turned around and said he was insane. She won only $200 so how can she pay him $100k to retrieve the ticket? Everyone there did a big BOO on her since given the noise she was making, everyone assumed she had won the top prize. But she retorted, "Isn't $200 MONEY?" If it were you, would you go on a garbage truck adventure and search among the rubbish for $200? Do share your thoughts. PS.: This might have happened in real life but my source is a scene in a show I watched. | | Will you get into a garbage truck for $200? | | | | |

| | No. There are too many diseases you can get from getting into a garbage truck...and $200 would not pay for medical help. | | | | | | |

| | Good morning lordwarwizard! I don't think I would likely get into a garbage truck for $200 , but I guess it depends on how much you need the money . If I had no money to feed my family or buy much needed medicine , then I might do it . It would also depend on when the trash was picked up with the ticket . That ticket could be at the bottom of the pile , then I would have to say Heck No ! not for all the tea in China , ha ! | | | | | | |

| | I agree if I didn't have money to feed my family or get medication that is needed, it might climb in and search for it, especially if they just picked up my garbage then it would probably still be on top or something. | | | |

| | Probably not, but I could see in this economy if I lost the $200 ticket, I would climb in myself, not ask for help from anyone else and pay them. | | | | | | |

| | Thinking it over,I'd wonder would the ticket have been tossed with the recycle waste,or the general kitchen waste,and if it had been bagged first? If it was with the unbagged general household waste,I'd say forget it..some nasty stuff gets dumped that way,pet waste,diapers,who knows what..You might take a chance on recycle waste day,but the refuse trucks around here (And,I assume,Elsewhere too) have hydraulic compactor mechanisms that get used as the back fills up,and AFAIK,the only way to get something back once they've gone through a cycle is to open the tailgate at the depot..so long as a recycle day load hadn't been compacted,you might take a chance on identifying "your" stuff! Thanks for Best Response! | | | |

| | There were a few times I was driving behind a garbage truck, besides the flea and maggots, there is always stinky liquid dripping along the truck trail. Imagine, you have to swim around the liquid, rotten veggie, baby's disposable & etc for a (non-guaranteed to be found) $200 ticket. Even if the ticket is found, will $200 be enough to buy detergent to clean your hand, nails leg, hair and every part of your body. Arr...can't imagine, i won't do that. | | | | | | |

| | Only slightly OT..I remember one of those candid camera shows a while back had this Gorgeous Model type come out from the Ladies room in a restaurant or someplace and asking guys to volunteer to retrieve a diamond earring she'd "accidentally" dropped in the toilet..most guys who volunteered actually did go in and get it out...then they decided to make it more interesting and poured some apple juice down there..(think about it..!) most still stepped up to do it! | | | |

| | Those poor guys must have felt obliged to pick up the diamond ring - they might not do it for a million dollars but here, their honor is at stake! | | | |

| | That is an unquestionable no...lol. Even if it was the top prize it would still be a big no. If someone was stupid enough to throw away a winning ticket I would have to question their sanity. If the money was that important to her then she should have gone after it herself, since she wasn't willing to go after it herself then how would I know the ticket was really a winning ticket. Foir all I know she could be creating a fuss just to see if someone would do such a thing. People now a days do have very strange motivations and so I seldom consider it prudent to help someone like that. | | | | | | |

| | Sometimes, you might get careless... like just the other day, I saw a report of someone seeing a hypnotist to help her find the precious family heirloom she has misplaced. Same situation - you might ask how someone can misplace something so important... | | | |
