It is true that we pay garbage tax to the panchayat or municipality and the garbage contractor pays the garbage man he employs  but so we do  pay  the hotelier for the  food we consume in the hotel and he pays the  waiter he employs. Yet we always thank the waiter who serves us and tip him generously.

The common garbage man is an  uneducated and poor  person who earns his living by carrying the waste we generate daily. He merits a little appreciation from us . Any such gesture would go a long way to help him and encourage him to serve us better.
