kat_lairI am sick and fucking tired of being the only one who cares about anything in this neighbourhood besides their own precious ass. My paper recycling has sat on the street for over a week in overtly optimistic wish that it would get collected. It hasn't (more on this later). But in the meanwhile people see fit to use it as a normal bin and chuck in things like take-away containers and drinks cans that i tend have to clear out because the likelihood of it getting collected like FUCKING EVER are even less when it contains stuff it isn't supposed to. Because other people put them there. Because the bin is on the street. Because the council hasn't collected it. DO YOU SEE THE PROBLEM, MANCHESTER CITY COUNCIL, YOU USELESS PIECE OF CRAP? TAKE YOUR FINGER OUT OF YOUR ASS AND COLLECT MY GODDAMN RECYCLING!
You may remember that I sent them a very long complaint. I got a reply and apology but only from the call centre, and only regarding the wrong information they had given me. I was told that the actual issue of BLATANT LACK OF RECYCLING had been passed on to the waste management who should get back to me within ten working days. So far, nothing.
To add insult to the injury: recently council started food waste collection and the whole street got containers and kitchen caddies. The first week these weren't collected on schedule. I rang about it. The food waste (which in the meanwhile sat outside in the collection caddies, rotting away) got collected two days after schedule. This week it presumably got collected on time. I say presumably because my collection bin has fucking vanished, along with its contents. But hey, it's okay, because on my street there are at least five other containers that HAVE NOT BEEN USED AT ALL BECAUSE THEY ALL STILL CONTAIN EITHER THE ORIGINAL LEAFLET OR SOME RANDOM OTHER RUBBISH. BECAUSE APPARENTLY I'M THE ONLY ONE ON THE STREET WHO BOTHERS WITH THIS RECYCLING SCHEME TOO. So have just stolen one of the completely unused and apparently unwanted containers.
In conclusion: so angry about the whole situation and being the only one who apparently cares that I'm shaking and in tears. FUCK YOU MANCHESTER CITY COUNCIL AND FUCK YOU THE REST OF THE STREET! DROWN IN YOUR OWN SHIT THEN, YOU IGNORANT, SELF-CENTRED, USELESS WANKERS!
I swear I'm so close to snapping that the next person who so much as drops a cigarette stump in my presence is going to get bitch-slapped from here to eternity gfa;fmagkrfgkmlfrklmgrkmls fffffffffffuuuuuu!!

Tried it through internet banking. "Account details invalid" - but they still managed to take £40 out of my account - then deposit it straight back in! Now they're having a go at me for not paying my rent, when I've been trying to!

What I don't get is, these people have kids. All of them. Don't they want to leave them a better world? Apparently not. Sigh.
