I had a summer job helping out in a shop that repaired garbage trucks. One task was to climb into the back to the truck behind the compressor blade and scrape and shovel the crud that built up. The heat of summer in, what amounted to, a metal box full of rotting garbage doing heavy labour. Nasty.
The upside was they had the contract for the garbage at Columbia House Records and Tapes. I got my pick of the tapes that we chucked in the dumpster (all the returns we tossed). I then resold them at school.
