Delay In Trash Collection Today Due To Weather
Due to the inclement weather today [Jan 29] there has been a delay in regularly scheduled garbage collection, the Ministry of Public Works said.
A Government spokesperson said, “The Ministry of Public Works is advising that due to inclement weather, there has been a delay in regularly scheduled garbage collection today.
“The Ministry notes that any uncollected garbage which was schedule for collection today is expected to be collected tomorrow, 30 January.
“The Ministry regrets any inconvenience caused.
“As a reminder, garbage must be placed at the designated collection location by 7.30 a.m.”
It is below zero across much of the US & Canada today. You think that trash collection has been suspended there?
It was for safty reasons you nitwits.
WHY???? It’s not ice or sleet.. It’s just rain and government provides rain gear.. DUH!!!
So how many construction workers and landscapers did you see working outside yesterday?
LMAO
If they didn’t work they still get paid? No. Because that’s how it works in the real world.
Only a Fool would’ve worked in all that torrential rain, and just a friendly reminder, Slavery days are over.
Save that BS for de nanny’s.
The garbage men are in danger?
It’s dangerous to go out in the rain?
Florida weather past 72 hours. Rain, high winds,lightning and thunderstorms. Average temperature 50 degrees. My trash was collected by an automated system on the truck driven by one person.
Well when we get automated trucks we will pick up trash in torrential rain, until then……..
of course , it is raining …….
speechless
ever heard of protective clothing!
and more than likely supplied buy us the taxed to death public. nI am 65 and in that time i have never melted from a little rain.
Bermuda is another world, remember??
LMAO
Funny that! My employees got all their jobs done today and this maybe a shocker? They are all outside jobs!
Fire all of them!
Well your employees are Fools to work in torrential rain, they must come from a country where the $ value is weak. Taking advantage off desperate workers. Very sad.
Lazy , disgusting moaners …. Take your own trash to Tynes Bay . You have a choice here in Bermuda , maybe not so in Canada. Here you do , so get in your car and take YOUR stinking garbage to the dump . And no fly tipping !
Exactly
You enjoy paying taxes for public services that you don’t receive?
Coffee…you couldn’t have said it better! Moaners!!….moan about everything! Let me echo your words a bit more! …shut your lazy traps! Put on your protective clothing, and head out in the pouring rain, along with the thunder and dangerous lightening and take your stinking trash to Tynes Bay yourself!
Who moans more than the average civil servant?! Exactly. U must be one of them. Oh wait i forgot. 25-11 right? U lot love getting shafted lol.
How about we get the services we, as tax payers, have already paid for.
The PLP. Pay people to do a job, and then tell the public to do it themselves. The typical reaction of unearned privilige champagne socialism. You pretend to be for ‘ordinary people’ and then you assume everyone has the time and resources of the PLP Elite.
Sure, all the Seniors at home can probably catch a bus to Tynes Bay. Oh wait…
Still, if they don’t have a car or can’t drive, they can probably send one of their servants. Isn’t that what Burt does?
Can I get a rebate on my taxes. Happy to drive my own trash to Tynes Bay if I get a rebate.
I pay for a service and don’t get it, so I get my money back right?
Thought so.
Maybe your car smells of stinking garbage, I prefer mine gets transported in a garbage truck..that’s what they’re made for right?
Didn’t want to get there her did wet.
BeT they got paid though, the BITCOIN must be working well. All these bus cancellations bet the drivers are being paid, now trash trucks.
The light at the end of the tunnel is the train coming.
Yeah… just like coffee says.
Complaining about your paid tax not being spent as promised. How dare you expect the overpaid trash collectors to work in the rain. After all every other private sector worker made time.
So what did they get paid for today ? This island will never get anywhere forward with Decisions like this .
It’s funny how you lot are quick to bash the trash truck workers. Yet day in and day out they have to deal with some of you lot dirty trash. It was hailing throughout the day so there safety came first. You lot sound so stupid with yuh comments. On numerous occasions they guys work in the rain and yes they have rain gear. Why don’t you guys go and see what it’s like working on the trash truck. I bet more than half of you won’t last. Seriously you guys are a bunch of ungrateful members of the public. Trash guys big up yourselves, I appreciate you guys
Dealing with trash is their JOB.
If u dont like the job u shouldnt have gone for it. Makes sense right. So if they have to deal with our “stinky trash” and have an issue with it. Move on. Simple fix.
Coffee believes in paying taxes for absolutely no benefit. That’s why Bermuda has this group in power now.
I’m gonna assume yall didn’t hear and see all the thunder and lightning yesterday. Just incase its not clear, garbage trucks are made of metal, metal conducts electricity, lightning is electricity. Your lack of concern for the safety of our garbage men is concerning.
rubber wheels ground,
Funny thing tho, the belco guys were out yesterday…….
Only in Bermuda
I dont care if they get their butts wet,I just dump my garbage outside
