 Young man in trash truck who picked up trash said I can't take the 10$ I might get in trouble. Who's gonna tell I said, you think your Bosses don't take bribes under the table.Screw em I said, buy yourself a good lunch. Seems I know his people well he's from a small community of Henry where my Mother was raised and picked Cotton. He's gonna buy him a good lunch.

I once contracted a friend of my wife's father to bush hog an acre lot that I was going to put a house on..He graded it off and sowed grass..The agreed price was fifteen hundred..When I went to pay him he said it didn't take as he thought it would so just give him twelve hundred..I might be wrong but it seems that ethics were expected more in days past..Harder to find now.

Back in the late 70s I worked a garbage route around Lake Travis.
One customer never had money, but taped 4oz of weed to the top of
the trash can every Saturday. Bartering works.

Even more amazing is how the rest of the neighbors just left his trash alone. |
