And don't you know, I'm standin out in my garage diggin, tryin to hurry before the trash man comes...and now it's too late!!! He drove by as I was diggin, and i didn't find it either! UGH!
The things we do sometimes!

i work at a transfer station, anyth8ing non recyclable goes into a town aproved bag into a big hopper/compactor. one afternoon a gentlman came in, threw his trash into the hopper and as a last minute tyhought, tossed his paystub into it. He came back later because when he wen to the bank to cash his check he discoverd that what her threw away wasnt his stub but the actual check!!! a $500 check. so i climbed down into the hopper and dug a bit and when it didt turn up, i went around back, pulled the big can off with a loader and continued looking. after almost a half hour i found it. he tried to offer me a 20 as a reward but i told him i wasnt allowed to accept tips. later that day however...he came in with a paper bag for me and told me to look AFTER work...i opened the bag when i left work and in it was a 5th of jack daniels whiskey.

I've had to do that once, not at home but at work.
When I worked for Starbucks, one of our employees accidentally threw away one of the main components of our espresso machine during the cleanup one night. We spent about 10 minutes going through all of the bags we had going out, through old drinks and used coffee grinds and nasty napkins, to finally find the small piece. It was just awful, but our machine would not have functioned without it.

I have had to dig through the trash can also to find something that I had thrown out and realised then that I needed to keep that for something. It is nasty to dig through left over food and whatever else is it. Sometimes there is spoiled meat and that is very gross to dig through because it stinks really bad. Sometimes I just need to get an address off of an envelope that came in the mail and it is disgusting to have to go through that mess just for that.
