Council staff can't win, can they? If they don't engage with residents they're clearly failing to do their jobs. If they do come and speak to you then they're a "real jobsworth"?

I think its the manner of the engagement that can make all the difference...anyway, they could at least also be going around to everyone whose bins _aren't_ overflowing to see if they could get by with fewer or smaller bins
we had a letter through the door saying the same thing.
Was surprised as the bin (used by four adults) was not that full - 3/4 maybe.
The recycling bin, on the other hand, was as full as it could be while keeping the lid closed. ( we had some new furniture etc so lots of cardboard that week)
So to ask us if we knew how to recycle seemed surprising but I just popped the letter straight in the recycling bin.
There are loads of people on our street who could do with his advice though.
The jobsworth song.
My alternative "nuanced" view is to look for solutions.
Thank goodness it's not just telling someone their complaint only amounts calling someone a jobsworth, eh.
To be less nuanced, Hugh. I don't see a complaint or even a constructive suggestion. I see a posting on a website.
