Thats what happens when you flush them down the toilet as opposed to simply tossing them in the trash. I assume you know how a waste treatment facility works?

I've been in one once, it was a water treatment facility at least. But generally, objects not intended to be flushed should not be flushed. We have bins for a reason.

Yeah, Umm.... Well, I'm a sick fuck who places way too much emphasis on money, so I'd do that shit for half what they're paying. That said, I'm off to the Duval County Wastewater treatment plant.

IMHO, The "Shit shark" Has the worst job. at least the water in the treatment plant get circulated. Septic tank shit just sits there for years, building up sludge and nastiness. I know he probably never touches it, but still. The "Ickk Factor" Would be much harder to set aside in a job like that for me, anyway.

nope. They dont just magically diappear when you flush them.

AV I agree with you regarding used rubber disposal but for some people its the most convenient way to get rid of the evidence, should they need to for any reason.

Unless you have to pick them out with your teeth or work 100-hour weeks, I'd gladly take the job if it meant a six-figure income. But, the embarassing part would be talking with other people with similar incomes, and while they're saying that they're lawyers or engineers, you tell them you pick condoms out of sewage.

I also noticed that the job is only until they can get the filtering system installed, probably making it temporary, perhaps even for a few weeks.

Shit, I'd do that job over the summer. Would definitely solve my monetary issues.

Hold on, is that what this guy is getting paid or is that the total cost of sending someone down to do it?
:D
