I think today is just my day to be pissed off at everyone.

So in our alley where we put the recycling we have people that come through on a regular basis who sift through the recycling to take the aluminum cans.  I have absolutely no problem with this at all.  My problem is that in doing so, they would dump all of the sorted cans that they didn't want into the recycling bin and take the bag for themselves (or else dump all the unwanted cans onto our driveway).  Then, when the recycling truck would come through, the workers would leave our recycling along with a note that we needed to sort it or else they wouldn't pick it up.  After several months of of cleaning up after the can scavengers and getting sick of it I started sorting all the aluminum pop/soda cans separately.  I'd put them into a plastic bag and leave the bag on top of the recycling bin so it could be taken and nothing would be dumped and left for me to clean up.  Apparently this was not enough since I walked out to find my recycling again dumped onto the driveway because someone wanted an extra paper bag.  I am so sick of cleaning up other people's trash.
