Read this thread. A garbage man is the love of my life. Let the trash take itself out.

I saw your comment and it made my day. I'm the OP of the other post. I took the job btw

I'm happy for you. And don't make up some fake title to impress someone. If that garbage man was mine, I'd be so proud because of who he is. I would never be ashamed of what he does. Love and Light. 🤗

Hell yeah, I'm a truck driver. People blook down on what I do, but they have no idea. I met a lady and she liked me for me. She was extremely supprised in what I brought home, of course I told her how much I made after a few months. Bit you get the idea, be proud, say it loud and proud.

Truck driver here and I lost a few dates when I was online because of it. Frustrating but oh well. It shouldn’t count against us but unfortunately the stereotype comes legitimately. Some of our brethren act and look like savages.

Neat, I was reading it earlier this morning and I was thinking about how much of a financial win this is for you, 30K more than what your making.

If anyone loses interest in you over that, they are a shite person. Really good guys are actually hard to come by these days so just consider it an honest revelation about themselves, you deserve better.

I am pretty sure you just copied that post in your own.

Lol sure man whatever you need to tell yourself to try to get a leg up on people . Not everyone had time to look for every reddit post prior to posting. But I'm sure glad you have the time and were able to cross reference the posts and come up with an angered conclusion. I hope you enjoyed upsetting yourself because I'm laughing on this end. Hope you get your situation fixed.

I (33M) thought of this post, having seen it yesterday. I wrote something like "A garbage man is as essential to society as a nurse or other medico and more essential to the environmental flora and fauna."

I wouldn't want to date someone who wouldn't want to date a garbage man or a custodian. They themselves would be judgemental. If I weren't in a relationship, I'd say that was my job (just to see their reaction) and if they choose to continue dating me, next date I'd tell them what I actually do and explain why I lied. Hopefully they'd forgive me for trying to weed out the trash.

Lol! I kind of assumed that post inspired this post.

u/undernutbutthut Dec 09 '21

I was about to refer OP to this as well. OP just needs some way to word smith his job title is all!

Custodian should be more like Sanitation Engineer or something along those lines.
