Garbage Time

Posted By Dylan On April 30, 2006 @ 11:38 pm In Uncategorized | Comments Disabled

At this late hour, it looks like we’re perilously close to a garbage strike [1] in Seattle and King County.

What would a garbage strike mean? In all likelihood, residential and apartment rubbish will stack up until there’s a resolution. The last time Seattle had a strike (February 1997) the trash was not picked up for three days. This time, the two sides are close, so maybe it will be short again.

If not… this town will stink.

UPDATE: Strike averted. At least for now.
