Where's the street janitor?

Philippines
March 13, 2018 7:39pm CST
It's trash day and I was expecting our front side of the street clean, but it's not because eco-aide janitor isn't around again. So I went out there and cleaned the area. But I hate it when there's people around because If people sees me cleaning, they might throw trash even more knowing some one's going to clean it up. Anyways, at least for a day I'm looking forward to have the streets rid of garbage again.

We don't have a street janitor in my place. Basically, the residents are the one doing it. It is also a good exercise.

Hello @Shavkat yeah, it's no big to me I used to do it every night before I sleep. But when you have gout and it hurts every time to walk or bend over, cleaning the front side walk can be a bit overwhelming.

@Letranknight2015 I think it is fine to do it. My mom usually does it in the morning.

@Shavkat I guess it's normal but it's sad news though, the truck didn't arrive today

we have sweepers, too, but they only stick to certain streets. our trash collector also haven't been sticking to the pick-up dates for a month now.

Hello @JudyEv yeah, it's just frustrating that people throw when ever they want as they go along.

Geez, that seems annoying. It is good you go out there and clean it, but that does seem super annoying to have to deal with. I am grateful for our trash collectors haha

This happens to me most of the time too. I clean the trash myself on the street near our house so I could get rid of possible more trashes.

Hello @sw8sincere One thing I hate I had to constantly buy trash bag for this when it's supposed to be reserved for our trash at home.

Sounds like our area. But real maddening when it is expected when trash is not being picked up

That's kind of you to do the cleaning up. And don't worry about other people, if they throw trash more. The thing is, you are doing a good deed.

Hello @toniganzon There's just so many irresponsible people in our neighborhood. Well, it should everyone's responsibility. But Im glad the tenants are doing their part too.
