So in essence, city sanitation workers would never really have a 4- day week..even if they get a holiday, they'd have to make it up on a Saturday?

CITY WORKERS? Surely you jest!

Well, the newspaper notice always says that collections will be a day late for the rest of the week, so I always thought that meant Friday routes were done on Saturday. How else could it be done?

Our block lucked out this week.

Does anybody know the scheduling details of how Streets copes with the periodic challenge of removing 5 days' worth of trash in a 4- day week? Now they've got dueling programs, thus twice as many opportunities to fall behind. There must be more to it than meets the eye.

I've long been tied to a similar industry in my private life, for several different employers, and 4-day weeks are always a killer for us as well. Sometimes we pull it off gracefully, sometimes less so. So I feel some sympathy for the trashmen and I'm curious how they go about it.
