Confessions Of A Man Who Cleans Porta-Potties For A Living

Is it as bad as it sounds? Not denigrating you, just it sounds like tough work.

Honestly not really. After awhile you kind of get used to it, it is a dirty job but I’m paid well.

How well?

I’m paid $18 an hour to basically drive around and do five minutes of work every 10 to 20 minutes or so. I get 40 hours a week over the winter and overtime in the summer, which can hit 20 plus hours a week.

“My wife keeps cheating on me and doesnt plan to stop”

I’ve been with my wife since we were 16. She was my high school sweetheart and the only person I’ve ever been with. We got married shortly after college. I always believed she was my one true love.

What It Feels Like to Grow Up in Foster Care

I don’t remember a “before.”

There’s no clean break in my life where things were normal and then suddenly weren’t. My parents died in a car accident when I was just a few months old, so I never knew them. Not really. I have pictures, a few videos, fragments of who they were. But memory? Nothing. Just the absence of it.

And over time, that absence starts to feel like something you’re actively losing, like you’re forgetting people you never even got the chance to remember.
