Rubbish colection in Australia

It was 20090401.

When we hear to the song 「Modlitwa Dziewicy」which is far away every time, the first thing we usually have to do is to stop all the thing you're doing, grab the rubbish and wait for the garbage trunk coming. Otherwise you can only stack the stinky rubbish together until it's coming next time. There is a problem that the Taiwanese employees face a system of responsibility of which the management takes advantage, the employees have no chance to see the sunset, they wouldn't hear the song Modlitwa Dziewicy」as well.
聽到「少女的祈禱」在遠處響起，通常第一件事就是放下手邊的事情，提著垃圾等待垃圾車的到來。不然就只能把它們堆著直到下一次的到來。問題是台灣的上班族面對的是讓資方佔盡便宜的「責任制」，根本就沒機會見到日落，也無法聽到「少女的祈禱」。

The can with yellow lid is for recycling, the red one is for rubbish
黃色上蓋的桶子是資源回收用，紅色是一般垃圾用


In Australia, each house bascially owns two rubbish cans, one for recycling, another is for rubbish. What you have to do is to draw the can out from your house to the pavement outside the night before the rubbish or recycling collection day. When you come back from the office, the final step is to pull the empty can. This is a convenient service to the residents, but in my point of view, people who drive the garbage trunk are really tired.
在澳洲呢，每一戶（非大樓式，透天建築）基本上都會有兩個桶子，一個放資源回收，一個放一般垃圾。只要在一般垃圾或是資源回收日的前一個晚上，將它拉到家門口的人行道上。當天下了班回家，只要將空桶拉進屋子即可。這是個便民的服務，在我看來，垃圾車司機倒是挺辛苦的。

Garbage truck, it seems that the day was for collecting rubbish (yellow or green lid) instead of recycling
垃圾車，看來今天是收一般垃圾（黃蓋或綠蓋）


In my opinion, I can't stand to drive the garbage trunk along the way and process the rubbish can by the devie on the car, I absolutely don't have patience to do this kind of routine action.
以我來說，我真的沒法開著車，延路利用垃圾車的裝置處理垃圾，我絕對沒有那種耐心做著重複的動作。

Grab the cans by the mehanical arm
利用機器手臂抓垃圾桶


Even though the state governments in Australia operate individually, it seems that the mechanisms to process the rubbish in all states are the same. The Australian generally have good concept of classifying rubbish.
雖然澳洲幾個洲政府都是獨立運作，不過垃圾系統的回收機制看來都差不多。澳洲人普遍對於垃圾分類的觀念都蠻好的。
