That was a fun read.

On a side note, here, in NY, running any kind of "carting" business requires dealing with ... interesting ... people.

Trying to open an independent refuse business can be ... bad ... for your health.

I've heard similar with the cleaning industry in Oslo. Ahem, regular cleaning, not the other kind.

Sorry, I don't get what you or parent are referring to. Are these supposed to be some references to mob run businesses or something?

The garbage collection business in NY is notorious for being run by the mafia. "Cleaning" is a euphemism for the hitman business, at least in movies or pop culture.
