Review of Garbage Man-Short Version

Quite nice, this piece and this series. It's a good look at the type of person who is judged only when (s)he does a bad job, or is late or doesn't show up. But this is a real person who ended up in his job in a different way than many of his/her co-workers. You visit a doctor, and you can have a pretty good assumption of what education and training he needed to get there, but what about a "garbageperson"? Or a taxi driver? And why does (s)he continue to do that particular job? I want to know more. Good use of nat.sound as well.
