LATEST MOAN FROM YOU AND ME - 2021

Was the programme called, "inside the factory" by any chance?

I posted about this programme about how different types of metals and plastics were being put in bottle banks by the general public. It would be a waste of time of having different bins for different coloured glass, some people can't differentiate metals, plastic etc etc from glass.

 

Yep that was the one, so lets just have one big bin for glass and one for metal and one for plastic.
The old duvet and general crap can still be thrown around the outsides.

 

But the programme showed the wagon picking up waste glass from glass bottle banks only though. If people had been putting glass only in the bins, the company wouldn't of needed different types of magnets etc etc to take out all the other rogue waste.

 

Yeah, in my experience the stuff you can dump at each location is different, hence people turn up with all kinds of stuff and they aint taking it home again.
Where I go its three different colours of glass , and clothing. No cans.
So the cans get chucked where ever.
The whole system needs sorting out.

 

We have glass, paper and plastic/metal bins. There are less frequent clothes bins from the Red Cross and other Charities. People put furniture/etc and tree cuttings go by the rubbish bins and small cuttings go in the bins. Trucks come around weekly to collect the furniture and tree cuttings (different trucks). The rubbish system is good here.

 

I am on hold with the broker's telephone line, listening to cheesy elevator music, and waiting for someone to pick up at their end. I held on the line for them yesterday afternoon and after 2 1/2 hours of instrumental horrors, a recording suddenly announced they were having problems and then abruptly hung up on me!

They do not have offices near me and that is why I am stuck with this nonsense.

Because they are connected to my bank, I may be forced to go in to that branch and make some nasty noises about switching banks.
