Bin Men
Reason for annoyance:"Stop just dumping the wheely bins in the middle of the road after you've emptied them!" by Howie Ratating About Bin Men:I remember when I was a lad (not that long ago) when the bin men used to walk round to the back of my Mum and Dads house, pick up the bin and any additional bags that were near it and then carry it down the drive to the wagon where they would manually tip the contents of the bin in to the back of the dustbin wagon. Then they would carry the empty bin back to the back of the house and place a couple of free black bin liners on the handle. What wonderful times they were, everyone was happy. I know this because I used to be able to hear the bin man whistling a happy tune. Now is a different story. Now there lazy job worths will not even empty the bin if you've not taken it to the edge of the drive. They don't lift the bins the lorry does it, yet if the bin looks full they will just stick a sticker on it saying it's too heavy. They never put the bin back and seem to deliberately block the drive with the empty bin. Even the free black bin liners have stopped and the whistling has changed to loud swearing and taking about who they were fighting with in the pub the night before.
One last thing, you're a bin man not a domestic waste management operative! FACT: Bin Men are more irritating than Chris Moyles but less irritating than Next You may also find Old Men in Thongs irritating.
