The Trashing of Twinbrook Parkway

Leave a comment

It has been a little over a year since I ended my 10 year romance with the garbage addled city of Philadelphia. I’m now living in the Rockville/N. Bethesda area. On my way home from work yesterday (walking to get to the subway), I noticed this scene on Twinbrook Parkway.

The question I have is the following (feel free to speculate in the comments):

1. Disgruntled office worker, project manager, tech writer, etc… with a truck full of proposals decided he/she wasn’t getting what they deserved for their hard work and pitched them out the window.  I could have considered doing this myself many times.  (The “take this job and shove it” theory).
2. Oops, I missed the recycling bin.
3. Should’ve put those proposals in the back seat instead of the back of the pickup. (The “used to carrying immigrant workers in the back” theory).

The funny part about this is that there was a street cleaner sitting at the side of the road less than a block away just idling with nobody in it. Typical!!!

This song represents my daily malaise as a technical writer.  Yeah, sure, grammar doesn’t matter to those of you who do not get paid to mind it.  For those of us who have to put up with and fix everyone’s poor excuses for writing, this song is for us.

Thank you Weird Al Yankovic!
