Ten Chinese Fortune Cookies from Sanitation Workers

Steven West
Time to take out the trash. Not one of life's favorite things to do. Hey, let's give some respect to the people who pick up your trash. How about opening a few Chinese fortune cookies and read what sanitation workers have to say.

1. Be polite. No more trash talk.

2. Please dispose of your used condoms in the plastic bags marked with the letter P.

3. Better take your job more seriously. You can easily be disposed.

4. Recycle your mind. There is a lot of waste inside.

5. Don't toss your cigarette butts on the sidewalk unless you intend to light up from the heel of my big foot.

6. Hey battery breath, watch where you are disposing your used batteries.

7. The next time you put your used computer out on the front lawn for me to pick up expect to get more than a hard drive crash.

8. Your trash reveals your inner identity. It also reveals a lot of personal information. Be careful what you put inside your garbage bag.

9. For the last time, no doggie doo in the trash cans.

10.You better change your cologne. Your trash smells worst than a three day "We Love You Rush Limbaugh Convention."
