My job takes me all around town. From the worst inner city and industrial parts to the richest most pristine subdivisions. I see a lot of things during the course of a day / week.... here are just a few....

Peoples trash..... you would be surprised at what I find and have to pick up during a day... used condoms (either there are a lot of people having public sex these days or backseats of cars are popular once again), dirty diapers (nasty!!), needles and syringes and various other drug paraphinalia (no, I dont go anywhere without a box of disposable gloves), money (thats always good... I did find $5 once but mostly it is just lost change... mainly pennies)

I frequently come into contact with the street walkers and the homeless..... One girl offered to trim my toenails for $2.

Sex....... I have seen it going on more than once in the broad daylight. Most recently on the hood of a car in a driveway........ damn she was cute.... too bad I was working and behind schedule!!

wasted money...... a couple bought a house in an exclusive part of town. The house and lot cost 1.25 million. The day the real estate sign came out of the yard the bulldozer showed up and pushed an beautiful 100 year old mansion down. They proceed to spend another 2 million building a brand new house that looks half as good and twice as "cheap"........that is the fourth one like that in this neighborhood in the last 3 years.



What do you see? What are the good, bad, ugly, nasty or crazy things you see on a daily baisis?
 
Canadian geese. They are everywhere! I see them from my office window.
 
Damn

if that doesn't sound like Rochester Minn.

My biz takes me all over a three county area. The good, the bad, and the ugly. I've seen it all. Fortunately I don't have to deal with the residue on as personal a level as OldAllisWD45.

I'm not there, but I'm not surprised.

We have a lot of geese in the area all year long- they don't even leave in winter! Now that Spring is here, there are even more. I like them, but they do make a mess.

I used to visit the Mayo Clinic with some regularity. No, not as a patient. Some cooperative studies related to cancer research. Anyway, the cooling ponds for the nuclear reactor there kept the geese all winter. The number were unbelievable, and the town's folk were becoming somewhat less than delighted with the geese. Well, not the geese really. Goose residue is more precise.
