g.i.g.o. – garbage in, garbage out

I had another day of temp work today. I worked in a landfill picking up trash. It’s not as ironic as it sounds. We had 40+ mph winds today so I walked all over this grassy hillside picking up the loose pieces of paper and trash that were blowing away. It started out pretty awful but I actually was enjoying myself after a while. I ended up praying for one of the guys I worked with. He had one great thing to say. “When you always work with garbage, you start to talk like garbage and you start to act like garbage.”

I don’t think this lesson needs too much interpretation.
