AS I was waiting at the bus stop the other day I watch council workers emptying dustbins of black bags and throwing them into a truck.
Many of them were half-empty.
I wondered how many bags were wasted. Could half-empty bags not be left until the next day?
How much in wages is being wasted by these endeavours?
