Bin-There-Dump-That

A TYPICAL DAY: 
A typical day at work is getting to the dumpster storage yard in the morning. Then I do a safety inspection on the truck. Next I use the truck lift system to load a dumpster onto the truck. Then I load the client's delivery location into the GPS system, turn on my music, and drive.

I deliver to a large variety of places, rarely going to the same location twice, so it is always interesting. I deliver to mansions in one stop, and trailer houses the next stop, then a commercial building after that. Lots of variety. 

After I deliver a dumpster rental, I look at the schedule from the dispatcher, and will often go to pick up a dumpster that a client has filled. I do NOT load the debris myself, the client load the debris themselves, so there isn't manual labor. 

Once I arrive, a put the tarp on the dumpster so that the debris doesn't fly out during transport. Next I use the truck lift system to hoist the dumpster onto the truck. To lift a bin, you just press a button, there is no manual labor. 

Then I take the bin to the appropriate disposal or recycling center. One of the nice things about this business is that we do NOT accept purifying household waste, so it does not have an odor. Our dumpsters are rented for construction debris (lumber, drywall, shingles), or for home clean-outs (sofas, bookshelf, and misc junk). 

After arriving at the disposal center I back the truck up to the unloading area, open the doors on the dumpster, and press the button inside the truck to dump the load. After it is dumped, the workers at the disposal center sort through the debris for recyclables, and pull them out. Then I shut the doors to the dumpster, and drive to the next jobsite. 

Then I repeat this process several times until the end of the day. 

WHAT I'VE LEARNED:
I've learned a lot about Austin, gotten to see many areas I otherwise would not. 

One of my favorite things to do while driving is listed to audio books. I feel like I've gotten a couple more years of college education by being able to do that. 

The company is all about safety, and trains on that, as well as how to work more efficiently. But overall it is a pretty relaxed environment. I've learned a good bit about real estate in Austin, and what areas are developing. Plus I've made lots of good networking contacts.

MANAGEMENT:
The leadership is great. The culture is all about delivering happiness to the clients. You can tell a lot by the reviews clients have posted about their experience with the company. The management probably doesn't push us enough. Every time I've requested time off, or to leave early, it has been okay with them. When I've made mistakes, their approach is constructive criticism, along with specifics about how to handle it next time. It is Christian owned and operated, so you never have to worry about being cussed at. The management is very ethical. A+ team that holds you to the same standard. Just work hard, be friendly, dependable, positive and you will do great. 

CO-WORKERS:
I don't see my coworkers much since I am always in the truck driving to different client locations. But when I do interact with them, they are positive and encouraging. Good culture. Good people. Easy to work with through good times and challenges.

HARDEST PART OF JOB:
Sometimes clients don't follow the rules. If a client loads a bin over the wall height, then it isn't safe to transport, and I have to rearrange construction debris so I can tarp the bin. Other times, we have to maneuver the truck into tight spaces to deliver the dumpster, I just have to be very cautious so I don't damage the client's property. The last thing, we work rain-or-shine. When it rains, it does get muddy, it makes the day go slower and can be frustrating. 

MOST ENJOYABLE PART OF JOB:
My favorite part of the job is getting to drive around Austin and see beautiful scenery and neighborhoods. Plus, I really enjoy seeing the smiles on my client's faces when I deliver a dumpster rental to them. It is strange how happy clients are about working with us. Plus it makes things super enjoyable when you have a great positive team to interact with, who is very understanding to my needs and desires.

I liked the work a lot actually media management in a passion and the costumer service part (answering phones) was simple to understand. 
Other than an out of date website making if difficult to actually schedule the deliveries you could wrap your head around it with a good training process and time to make mistakes.  
However said training was none existent outside of maybe a few days and a single incomplete binder, leaving me to heavily rely on my coworker for help. Which was not always possible when there would be days I was completely alone in the office. Now some of this is on me as I am a slow learner when it comes to terminology and in depth scheduling.
 HOWEVER what I  will not tolerate is upper management's refusal to talk to me about what they actually wanted from me OR there death grip on watching your every move. From day one I was told to walk on eggshells by my coworker about upper management. Being hands on is great of a boss and I feel like I could have actually flourished if upper management had actually told me what they wanted from me. Instead I only learned what they actually wanted from me when I got the phone call I was fired. Which caught me extremely off guard because again no one told me I was doing anything wrong! 
Otherwise the work from great, my coworkers were great and It saddens me this opportunity was so soured.
If your a mind reader or just really good at picking up on subtext this is the job for you!

Where do I start owner doesn’t care about there own business or there vehicles or employees it’s either there way or the highway. No free time can’t make plans if you wanna leave for something urgent or family time. They’ll slam you with orders and expect you to finish it all by the end of day. Lots of forced work orders. They don’t appreciate what you do no matter what it is. If it’s a busy day you can’t stop for lunch or take a 15 minute break. You’re always on the road winters are awful. Risk is high for slipping and falling and icy roads. Once you make 19 you won’t make anymore no bonuses no extra pay besides OT. You’re always by yourself winters are slow so you’ll make less than 40 hrs. Drivers always leave once you’re the only driver good luck because you’ll be working a long day without stopping. They won’t appreciate you either

The original Office Manager seemed to be decent at first but became very controlling and changed rules and procedures daily.

The other Consultant in office acts like a friend, is a brown nose, , and is a backstabber, and a narcissist.

The work it great but the atmosphere of the peoples egos are hurendous.

A typical day at work is getting an itinerary of deliveries and pickups for the day. A proper effort to coordinate where to deliver throughout the day to make an effective use of time also alleviates stress of having to figure out where to drive. Although driving in the truck for most of the day, there is some physical labor that involves separating metal and certain items from bins. Hardest part of the job is you never know what type of customer you might be dealing with but that can also be the most enjoyable. As long as you enjoy the solitude in the truck while listening to music and have a good attitude, this is a very difficult job to dislike.
