If you want to know how a Company Operates,talk to the Janitorial Staff and if you want to know about it's finical health,talk to the Mail Room .

Now,regarding Recycling in our area,I talk to the Person sitting in the Trucks Drivers seat. And,yes,they sort the Recycling because they get Tax Credits from State and Federal Agencies as part of their Hiring of and Training long term unemployed Persons. And once Recycled items reach a certain inventory level,to the Landfill it goes.

Some one mentioned retailers should take back all that overpackaging of consumer goods. That is one of the largest Recycled items. Great idea.
