He wears cor blimey trousers, and he lives in a council flat.
Thinking of becoming a dusty bin man. I know they get a lot of holidays with the regular strike action 'n all, but do they earn good money ?

My old man WAS a dustman, and he never ran out of fags or booze. Or the same old boring joke. He always told us the job was 'rubbish'. Ha ha bloody ha. We had to laugh or we'd get a backhander, and get sent to bed early with no tea.
I digress, yes, I think they do ok for dosh.

Are they still Council public-sector employees, eligible for subsidised public-sector pension schemes, and public sectr-typ generous holiday allowances, or are they all now employed by penny-pinching capitalist private companies run by draconian "fat cats" squeezing every last penny of profit out of their underpaid and overworked employees, and thus subject to less generous remuneration packages?
You'd better check Rusty, or you may find the strike time-off and holiday allowances aren't quite what you expect ;-)...
Either way, I suspect they are fairly well paid if you add in overtime/performance bonuses etc...
