William and I were doing our round through Pocahontas today for clean-up days when a "lady" came out and asked if we were with the city. I said we were freelance recyclers and she yelled YOU GUYS ARE BUMBS!!!! I reacted wrongfully. I yelled back and said I work harder than 3 of her spoiled f****** kids. After that she said that cussing proved I was a bumb. She was right. I should have said sorry you feel that way ma'am. So I told Will put her stuff back and I said your right I apologize. She actually was nice last second as I was pulling away. Had I reacted calmly and respectively she probably would have given me her whole garage. Just remember fellow scrappers, always think before you react. And know that people hate us and think we are BUMBS so lets make a difference.
