    Time to shift money to the jobs that matter. If the past 2 years has shown us anything its that some of the lowest paid workers in our nation are also its most essential. Give em hell guys!!

      Also the complex where I live uses Republic and our trash is piling up as well. I still back the workers.

    Trash workers are essential and the Teamsters make sure they are respected.

    If the powers that be can take taxpayer money to house and feed illegal entries without hesitation, why can't they come to a fair agreement for these people doing a necessary job.

    These guys don't even get out of their trucks. They get paid over $30.00 an hr. They have the best of health care enough is enough fire all of them & rehire.

      It’s called getting a CDL ! Can’t just hire random people. First they would have to have a commercial drivers license then it’s on from there

      Pick up a book take the 250-question test then get the CDL Then take the 30 min driving test in a tracker trailer at least 24ft trailer 2 axle truck as low as 5 speed. all can be done with in 2 weeks once you pass the test. Been there done that not a big deal.

      Not everyone does residential you know. I do commercial accounts and have to pull about 120 trash bins a day. Most apartment bins are full of maggots mice and flys. Its not as easy as it looks bro. Im not complaining but its not a walk in the park as u may think.

      Could have fooled me if you weren't complaining. The way I see it there are way harder More disgusting jobs than dumping trash cans. Like working under ground in manholes where the rats live in human waste up to your neck. Then again there are other jobs if you're not happy.

      Go get a cdl an just find a job a drive then. Unless you drive for ups semi side of business. Any non Cdl job delivering is gonna be real hard that’s why class A truckers rather do no touch freight
