AS she Prepares Taxes for a well Known franchise every tax season. She Had a Gentleman sit down in front of her who was injured on the job who was a "Thrower" for (Big Name Trash company). As he was Married and not quite understanding the filing process as so many of the poor do not, he wanted to file as single. My Wife sometimes has people who are insistent on this part, and many times become argumentative. She becomes firm in her manner. She then burst into tears while explaining the rest of the story. "He didn't deserve that treatment, he was patient and polite and after the rush and the stress..." After calming her down I got the rest.
He was injured on the job recently and was in pain. He offered no argument as she she explained to him he couldn't file that way. After collecting his w-2 form info she was shocked at what little he made. It occurred to her that he most likely was one of the Men who collected our trash and recyclables. She was shocked at his weekend physical condition at a relatively young age. "oh Yes," I said, "That's no job for a 50 year old!".
"But", she answered,"I thought city workers made more that that! HE works for (Big Name Trash company)". I said, "Yes I know that" I explained, "

Big Name Trash company) Is not the city Dept of sanitation!
And now instead of many people getting a good wage working for the city Dept of sanitation, you now have many men getting a SHIT wage, with no pension while (Big Name Trash company) makes a big profit. The city actually doesn't save much of anything, except the Managing part, and they still maintain an office for complaints and questions. That's how privatizing works. That's what the city has been doing for years. Now that's what they want to do to Teachers, Firefighters and when it's their turn the Police. That will be their rude awaking as well."
