If my garbage was collected by government employees, my tip could be considered a bribe and its acceptance could be an illegal act by the recipients.
However, here in small town CT we have no municipal garbage pickup. One either takes the family garbage to the transfer station each week or pays for private companies to pick up at the house.
I am very appreciative of the work these men do, lifting the heavy barrels, never spilling any on the lawn or driveway, replacing the the barrels neatly in their place with the covers on.
When I lived in a city with municipal garbage pickup, the employees would throw the can lids like frisbees, spill trash all over the place and toss and dent the empty cans with no respect for private property,
