Trash can trouble.

[djernie]

My fine city workers taking pride in their work as usual. Only problem, poor little old man pushing a cart to collect aluminum cans for recycling, gets the blame. I did go to the neighbors home and let him know it was the trash truck that did it. I gave him the 311 number to call and get the can replaced. And a copy of the video on flash drive.

The homeowner must be an idiot if he thinks an elderly gentleman could smash that hard plastic!

The Pink Panther theme song was a nice touch! Love it!

Damn, I'm not sure if your dipshit garbage men trained mine, or mine trained yours.
They are always breaking shit, dumping shit, and knocking shit over.
But whoever was operating that truck took the game to a new level. DAMN!

according to the time stamp it was only around 5min later when he arrived at the scene

so if he was already waiting , what did he do when it happens ? posting shit on reddit ?

And why did the homeowner bother to bring it back in from the curb? He just has to call the trash company and ask for a new one, and he is just going to have to put it back out so they can swap it..

Maybe a HOA rule?

Can’t he use a rubber mallet to restore that bin though to an extent?

I think if the truck had stopped, backed up and drove over it the second time, it would have pretty well restored it to it's pre-manufacture flat state.....

Maybe he drives in a demolition derby on the weekend. What a doofus!

Eh, that'd buff right out. No need for a new one.
Home owner probably doesn't know what a rubber mallet is.

i had to get mine replaced once. It sat out on the street for two weeks before a subcontractor for the city came by to swap it out.

You'd be p*ssed if you have to pay for your can's replacement.

INteresting machine though. We still have people doing it by hand.
