blackydog   40 #25 Posted October 17, 2016 If I could earn what I currently earn, but work as a postman, I think that would suit me just fine.  And there's the rub. Having said that, at my age now with a decent pension built up. I will be able to take pension at 55 - 56 with £25k a year so would really only need to work for beer money / hols etc. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
bluecanary   13 #26 Posted October 19, 2016 Bins not collected on my road in S6 this morning. is this strike related? ours is full to the brim with a month's worth of rubbish, so timing not great!   Posted from Sheffieldforum.co.uk App for Android Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
Vaati   11 #27 Posted October 19, 2016 Not been emptied in my part of S35 either. Phoned them up, said the road was inaccessible. Which is rubbish as it's been open the entire time. They said they would not take any extra rubbish either...  If your road/pavements are currently being done, they won't come down apparently.

Vaati   11 #32 Posted October 20, 2016 SO what's their policy - no bins get emptied for the duration of the roadworks?  They said when the road is closed, they can't empty them. Cept out road has been open. Also again it hasn't been emptied. Just been on the phone. "It will be today" and still no extra bags will be taken. Other people have put their bags in our bin...so we can't put anymore rubbish in ours. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

bluecanary   13 #34 Posted October 21, 2016 Reported our missed collection on Wednesday via the website and got an email informing me that the "crew had reported issues meaning our collection was missed" and that it would be collected later in the week.  Said bin is now full on no sign of any collection!   Posted from Sheffieldforum.co.uk App for Android Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
