When trash collection gets out of control

This picture represents the missed trash and garbage pickup from DisposAll of Pinellas for the past 3-4 weeks. Each bag is a 55 gallon Home Depot contractor bag. Essentially the trash pickup company failed to pick up more than 400 gallons or trash and garbage from my home in the past month

I had to fire Disposall and replace them with Waste Management Waste Management will pick up 10 trash bags or containers per visit. Disposall , on the other hand, will pick up a max of three containers on Monday and two on Thursday. You can see the two standard Disposall containers that are being returned behind my trash and garbage.

Hope this nightmare needs tomorrow.

update: Waste Management showed up at 9 am today and took my bags or trash and garbage away. Later two men brought new Waste Management trash and recycle bins.

Rogue trash collection in Pinellas County

Trash and garbage collection is a tough business. At one time most of this was municipal service, but trash collection was privatized throughout the US and even crime organizations have been involved with it.

Usually the people the pick up have a driver and a collector. Many companies have gone to just a driver who uses a special arm with a claw to pickup the containers and drop the contents into the garbage truck. This means the garbage and trash contents must fit into the provided cans. Without the second worker, these companies will usually not pick up bags of lawn debris.

About two months ago I noticed my trash pickups were being missed. Often one can would be picked up but the other one left. So I called Louie's Waste Disposal, now called DisposAll of Pinellas to find out what the problem could be.I even read there FAQ which was vague. I also contacted them using an Internet online form.

The Service didn't get any better so I went out and talked to the driver, He indicated that three cans could go out on Monday that included the recycle container.I advised him that I was also adding a Thursday pickup day that was an added expense to get caught up. He said he would pickup two cans on Thursday.

So Thursday came and both cans were missed.

The following Monday, three cans were missed. On Thursday nothing was picked up.

Is DisposAll of Pinellas short handed? Rightardia doesn't know.

I called DisposAll of Pinellas and cancelled my service after talking to Waste Management.

The employee who took my call was professional but could not explain why I was having this problem I mentioned that I had seen the driver peeking into my cans which I thought was odd.

In any event,Waste Management will provide a 96 gallon replacement can and a smaller recycle can,. Waste Management will also pick up 10 bags per pickup or 20 bags per week with the second pickup.

Is Disposal of Pinellas short handed? Rightardia doesn't know. Apparently Waste Management picked up a lot of new customers on Monday because the woman I talked to said they were having a heavy call load for new service.

Christmastime is a bad time for any company to miss these pickups.

Watch this Charlie Crist(mas) video and make a difference.

DECEMBER 22, 2012

Kevin Cate of Tallahassee-based Cate Communications just debuted his annual Christmas video and it's a good one.

For every view, $1 goes to St. Petersburg's CASA (Community Action Stops Abuse), so give it a whirl. A certain newly registered Democrat might have a featured role.

There is a special surprise at the end.

The Political Spectrum

First, let's look at the international political spectrum

As you can see, the authentic international left is made up of communists and socialists The right is populated by conservatives and fascists.

The people with the tin foil hats are called radicals on the left and reactionaries on the right.

Now let's look at the political spectrum in the US House of Representatives courtesy of Nate Sliver:

It should be obvious in the House there is really no significant left wing caucus. The Democratic progressive caucus is part of the liberal Democratic wing. However, in the Senate there is one socialist, Sen, Bernie Sanders.

The Blue dog Democrats often vote with the GOP so they are actually center right Democrats.

The US liberal movement is essentially centrist. This is true for the liberal party in the UK, too, as shown in the political poster from Liverpool.

The liberal movement started more than 200 years ago during the French and American revolutions. It is a centrist philosophy today that developed as a counterpoint to European monarchies.

The Establishment or country club Republicans are status quo conservatives.

Many of the Tea Partiers are fascists. Allen West is good example of a fascist Republican. So are Michelle Bachmann, Rick Santorum, Rick Perry and Louie Gohlmert.

It should e clear that after the past two elections, the US electorate has shifted to the center from the center right.

The GOP, on the other hand, has shifted from the right and descended into far right fascism. Fascism is another word for corporatism. On author has stated that corporatism is the first stage of fascism

There really is no coherent left wing political movement in the US as there is in Europe This is why European politics are so different from those in the US.

Social Security has a $106,800 cap that makes it the mot regressive of the federal taxes.
