Thing The Garbage Man Won't Dispose Of

LARGO, FLORIDA - Yet again this morning Capt. Joe Dumas’ unwanted trash can was left behind by the garbage man. “I’ve been trying to get rid of this damn thing for a month.” Complained Joe, “There’s a big hole in the bottom where the trash falls out. I’ve left notes on the can but apparently the garbage man doesn’t read. I asked my boss for time off but he says staying home ‘so the garbage man will take your unwanted trash can’ is not a
valid excuse to miss work.” Mr. Stupak, Joe’s neighbor, suggested Joe put the trash can inside a big trash bag before bringing the can to the street on the next garbage collection day. “That’s how I got them to take my old can!” Mr. Stupak said. A smile beamed form Mr. Dumas’ face as he realized he might actually get rid of his unwanted can next garbage collection day.
