My shitty job was AMAZING today
 
Well, I thought today was one of the worst for sure. Working outside in the rain all day, nonetheless hanging off the back of a garbage truck going 35MPH down a major road in town with ripped raingear. BUT my day was enlightened when i was throwing out a ****load of boxes with styrofoam in it, when i noticed one was slightly heavier than the rest. I decided to open it and find a laptop, faily new looking. So i throw it in the cab of the truck to let it dry off just a bit. It wasnt completely wet, just a little bit of water here and there. There was no charger to check to see if it worked tho. So just 15 minutes ago I took it out of my car and looked it up. Its a Toshiba, 2.0GHz, 256MB ram, 40Gig HD, cd burner, dvd rom, zip drive, and a flatscreen! :OMG: I had a spare oval 19V cord laying around to hook it up and it runs! The only flaw... is the O and J keys are missing, and I got a friend that repairs laptops for a living, so Im sending it over to him tomorrow. Figures... O-J's Missing!!! :lol:

This, other than the 2 working Xbox's and working PS2 i found over the course of 2 years, is the best find yet.

I just happened to do the rich section of Roxbury... we call it "Dradleville" cuz the houses are ****ing huge and the poeple dont tip on christmas like the rest of the town does. :lol:

Id say Roxbury is one of only a few places in NJ with a "Bling Bling Mountain", "Snob Hill", "The Ghetto", "The Slums", "The Valley", "The 'Tater Factory" (a street of Half-way houses and nipple-pinching Timmay shelters) and "Beer Bottle Avenue" :-D

believe it or not, the best time to find free stuff in the trash is the night before trash day at big retail stores. quite a few employees steal **** by throwing it out with the trash and picking it up later on. if you beat em to it, its yours. ive found video games, a cordless phone, a freaking toaster and numerous dvds. you dont have to dumpster dive either, they usually put it in another box right on top or around the dumpster.
