I bang my kiddo’s teachers. One of them fishes, you’ve seen many of her pics on here.

Yes, a small gesture can go a long way. There’s no reason not to do this.

Appreciate the sentiment.
That’s the coolest thing anybody has ever done for me. Didn’t even know the guy.
I gotta do more good stuff. That changed my life. He probably doesn’t even know that I know.

I tell my garbageman he can go through my garbage and keep whatever he wants.

No one wants used colostomy bags

During the summer my wife will put some gatorades in the freezer and I’ll put them on top of the can when I take the trash out. Every time we’ve done they will bring my can all the way back up the driveway and put it beside the house where we keep it. It really is a thankless job, little things go a long way with those guys.

My garbage truck guys normally get Subway gift cards or something similar. When I put 6 bags of leaves out and 3 cans, they get it all and don’t leave a mess. My fed ex guy has been here 15 years-always leaves packages under carport, out of site; he gets a gift card too, same for UPS guy....take care of me, I take care of you!

My wife and I lost a baby.
My mailman (on his own and by himself) redirected all the crap target, infamil, [you name it baby related] send you to her mothers house to keep my wife from going insane.

My wife bakes cookies for our garbage collectors and our mailman. We give them some cash too. Why not spread some cheer to those that serve you? The world can use a little more of that.

20 bucks and baked goods to the mailman, garbage guys, and teacher.
