What's the best or worst thing a garbage collector found in the trash?

0:06.2

Oh boy, my time to shine. I've been working at a waste transfer station, I guess we'd call it a

0:11.8

garbage dump, for many years. The worst I've seen, just garbage, not counting stuff brought to

0:17.1

the hazmat department, was a freezer stuffed with skinned, rotting, headless deer

0:22.3

carcasses. We nearly called the cops before we realized it wasn't human. Also a lot of used syringes,

0:28.3

the worst being a tie between a porcupine couch, and the lady who literally handed me a paper

0:33.5

bag full of syringes she had found during a park cleanup. There was also the large

1:26.7

Nobody, just a coffin. Couldn't see anything

wrong with it either. There were also buckets of testes from a ranch that had been sitting

1:34.0

out in the summer heat for a week. It smelled so bad that my co-worker blew chunks, and that's

1:39.3

not even the weirdest part. The weird part is the guys wanted their bucket back. Like, do you know how bad it has to

1:45.1

smell to make a garbage collector throw up, and they wanted them back? There was also a $10,000
