Since they drove over the lawn at the side of my house including several large rocks laid there specifically to stop vehicles driving over the grass and churning it up into a mudpit they can f*****G whistle.
After catching one of them having a piss in the bin area, I most definitely wont be tipping (not that I was going to or ever have before, do people actually do this??)
They throw the bags into big piles in the street so they split open then a couple of hours later a street cleaner comes along to clear the mess up except most of the rubbish has blown into people’s front gardens and under cars.
They are too lazy to walk closer to the pile of bags so none of them split open.
They can swivel AFAIC.

I was in Zurich Aiport. I had dim sum and a small beer. It came to 35 swiss francs. That’s nearly 24 pounds. She brought the bill and had added 5 swiss francs automatically without my say so. I told her to take it off and that I wasn’t paying it. She gave me a look of death and muttered something under her breath.
I think there are two sorts of tips. The first is social convention, taxi’s, waiters etc. The second is a bribe or ransom where you pay the service provider to do a better job just for you or not do something. So, my mum has to pay a tip to the binmen so they don’t purposely drop rubbish on her garden (ransom), I pay the Postman, cos he’s a nice chap and will walk round the back of the house and leave all my bike bit parcels hidden (bribe).
I must admit I haven’t tipped the binmen in the past. However, they always return a cheery wave to my young daughter, and stop the lorry so I can get past on my bike. No doubt that also upsets the motorists stuck behind, so time to return some karma in the form of beer I reckon.
