Best job i ever had was maintenance guy at a nursing home. Loved it. Rewarding. Fulfilling. Paid only $10.75/hr so i left it and ‘developed my career’ and now im ‘successful’ but at least once a week i have dreams where im back in the home hanging pictures, flirtin with the ol gals, being useful.

So when people ask ‘who fixes toilets under communism?’ my answer is a resounding ‘me. I will fix the toilets.’

    There’s a Youtube channel out there called Post 10.

    This guy drives around looking for culverts to unclog. Has a day job in lawn care, decides to spend his free time recording himself raking leaf litter off of storm drain grates and pulling beaver dams out of drain pipes.

    He has over 2 million active and engaged subscribers and his videos routinely pull in millions of views.

    Given their needs are met and they have the time and energy, people will do the job they see needs doing. Just because you’re too precious to fill potholes doesn’t mean everyone is.
