That's quite a concept! So you leave it taped to the bin for a week with $5 in it? And what happens if you don't tip them? permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] ChickenLadyLovesLife@lemmy.world 0 points 2 years ago No, you generally put the money out with the bin on the morning it's picked up (and it's more like $20 to $50 lol). My neighborhood is quite safe but even here an envelope filled with cash wouldn't last a week. Nothing would happen if they didn't get a tip. There's a huge turnover in that job and none of the workers ever last more than a couple of months, so even if they had a grudge against you they'd be gone in no time. permalink fedilink source parent [–] SoggyBread@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago Garbage workers in my city are city employees who make decent pay permalink fedilink source parent
