The best one that I ever got from the Solid Waste Department was a letter
telling me that they were unable to pick up my trash because I had not cleared
the snow around the trash containers.  (They did not pick up the trash that
week on the scheduled day.)  The irony of the whole letter was that it was May
two years ago and it was in the 60 to 70 degree temperature range the entire
week!  There was no snow to be found anywhere.  I called about the letter and
got the standard "it's your fault" routine.  We asked them to read the letter
back to us that they had on file.  They read the letter, said it was because of
snow, there was a pause and then they hung up on us.  An hour later they were
picking up the trash.
