sometimes my job is cool

Post by aaron »

since i work at a car wash i have access to trash cans filled with things that people throw away from their cars. sometimes this is troublesome and disgusting but yesterday i found probably the coolest thing yet: a blue caselogic flashdrive holder with two working usb flashdrives, a 1GB SanDisk micro cruzer and a 4GB PNY Attaché.

i'm stoked! :D

I had that happen once. I thought my burrito could last a few more seconds in the microwave... A few seconds later my microwave was a mess or burnt cheese, meat, and other various foods

And good find. See whats on em. It might be FBI junk!!!

I know what you mean about your job. I work for a local municipality, and I drive a truck and pick up peoples junk they throw out. Like when they clean out a basement or garage. I recently picked up a complete pc. It has a 1gig processor... 40 g hard drive... dvd rom... 256 megs of ram. And amazingly it works perfect. This is about the fifth pc I have picked up that works but they are usualy pentium 1 or 2. It feels good to find such treasures.
I also found a suitcase once with a complete atari 2600 and games. woo hoo!
Does it hurt? Its not my fault
