I tell you what, I must be doing something right. Tonight, dad and I were out and it was already dark and came across a pile set away from the regular trash. i set his flashlight down to light it up and all of a sudden I hear ''excuse me!''
Lol, when that happens you think maybe they don't want you picking up the scrap.
the house was set back quite a ways and I hollered ''hello!'' and waved.
The lady says to put my phone number in the mailbox, her hubby has a lot of metal for me and he didn't want to put it out until he knew I was coming around.
Now, I always make two runs on Sundays so my schedule is pretty regular so they must have set that pile out as ''bait'' and watched for me because like I said, it was already dark and I know there is another truck that runs that part of the area I've seen him before so they wanted me specifically to have this scrap as she was out the door in like 3 seconds. it wasn't out on the first round, tonight folks just didn't seem to have trash out until late.
I told dad, how cool is that and he says for sure! he was in the truck and said I couldn't hear a word she was saying lol.
I always wave to folks who are out even if they don't wave back and I never speed around the streets and never leave messes. This just proves that people DO take notice and it really made me feel good!!
