Garbage Collection

Some of you may have heard of Bangalore. Its where most IT jobs are coming to in India. If you're in IT as well, chances are you (or someone you know) has already been to Bangalore.

There are though, some things that one will not find in newspapers, magazines or on TV.

Example Question - What does a Bangalore garbage truck look like?


See for yourself.

Notice that this picture is taken in what is 'downtown' Bangalore - Brigade Road. Notice the number of people sorting the garbage in the truck. They dont wear any shoes, gloves or any protective clothing. No masks nothing.

Whether the garbage has toxic chemicals, used medical equipment, plastic, cockroaches or condoms or anthrax, these guys will sort the garbage by hand, take what is useful for them and the rest goes to a garbage dump.

Excited by this? Wait for more.
