The topics of conversations ended up all over the board again this week.
The end all be all though was on Friday afternoon when the crew I was working with got a phone call telling us to go pick up 2 five gallon bucks and dispose of them.
This was not a strange request, we do this kind of stuff all of the time.
Then the next part came out, we had to dig a hole and burry the contents.
Um, ok this just got a little strange now didn’t it?
I mean, some of my guys have probably buried some strange stuff in the past, you know everything from drugs, animals and human bodies.
But they, and I felt we needed to know what we where going to be burring just incase we needed to go incognito and be sneaky about it.
So of course I ask, what’s in the buckets?
Well, each of the lovely 5 gallon buckets is partially filled with home made fertilizer …
Um, excuse me, what?
I get the same response so this leads to the next part.
That being of course us laughed about it with that uneasy and uncomfortable flavor added to it.
So we go, we find and we realize got lied to!
There where, and I am not joking, 14 - 5 gallon buckets of poo!
There was so much that we knew we where getting close because of the smell alone about a block away.
Some of them had lids, most of them didn’t ...
Just a quick side note, it’s the middle of July in Florida here people!
On another side note, all of this and low and behold a darn dumpster sitting 15 feet away from where they where placed.
My crew and I ended up gagging and did what we needed to do.
We then drove down the road with our windows rolled up looking for people who had there windows down and pulling up next to them.
Completely by accident of course …
We end up back at the shop and I call over the boss so he could injoy the lovely smell … aren’t I a swell guy!
In his defense, he did not get a visit from his lunch again … like I did …
Well, this is when it got strange, it popped into my head that none of my guys had TB and Hepatitis shots, so we put the buckets on the ground, smiled and then got to walk away.
Thank goodness for knowing the rules … and knowing how to use them for personal gain …
So the end all topic of discussion this week ended up being another multitude of things within the last few hours of the week.
With a countdown like a late night show might have, insert your own drum roll!

5) Who thought to poo in a bucket and leave it out for another to clean it up?
4) Who thought to do it 14 times?
3) Why not put them into the darn dumpster that was just 15 feet away???
2) Peoples faces as we drove past
And of course the number 1 topic of mass conversation and a lot of injoyment …
How green I turned and how funny it was to watch me gagging off in a corner.
I let my guys have there laugh and have all there fun because, well, first I would have been laughing if it wasn’t me, and second as soon as they saw me turning green they really started moving to get the stuff way from me.
Who says they can’t be nice every once and awhile.
