$637 fine for not disp. of her garbage at the "right" place!

Post by matai »

This lady, who owns this hairdresser place, was disposing of her garbages in the back alley (red on the picture) for the last 4 years, like all her neighbours do.

She was fined $637 by the city of Montreal back in April, and only got a photocopy of the fine by mail at the end of July. When she called the city to know where she should dispose of her garbage bags, she was answered to ask her neighbours.

Finally, the newspaper learned she should dispose them in front of her business (green on picture). Her neighbours keeps disposing them in the back alley though.

She will challenge the fine in court. Also, she ain't got no warning before receiving her fine.

What do you think of that?

Could be worse......in Germany it takes four separate containers to get rid of a tea bag.
One for the string
One for the staple that attaches the string to the paper tab
One for the paper tab
one for the teabag itself
Do not argue with an idiot. He will drag you down to his level and beat you with experience.

The problem with the gene pool is that there is no lifeguard.

Well, I think it's pretty safe to say this is garbage. LOL.
