As a former manager often pointed out, there are dozens of people willing to do my job for the same money and conditions and while this is the case things will never change. It is galling, though, that if you told a bin man to get to work an hour before they start getting paid, check the oil and tyres on their lorry, load it up, drive for an hour or so and then they would only get paid when they emptied their first bin, then once they stop getting paid they then have to drive for an hour back to the depot, the streets would be knee-deep in rubbish!
