I always thought this was one of the perks of living here. Bulk disposal items can legally be put out next to the curb after 4:00 pm the night before the last garbage collection day of the week. The Dept of Sanitation will collect them by Saturday. In my experience, probably due to the number of scavengers, most of the items do not last on the street through the night. I have very nice outdoor furniture in my house in the country thanks to people redecorating their terraces. Most things can fit into the back of a taxi. If not, use your imagination. There are other ways to get them home.

At first I thought the drink disappeared because he was discovered to have been a slave owner, considering the geography where the recent sentiment has been (in certain circles) to remove honors that celebrate slave owners. I think it would be worth a call to the restaurant owner to learn the real reason for the disappearance.

My 4th husband, also a long term entrepreneur, finally talked me out of my attitude. I took the leap, and guess what? They did fine without me. The moral of this story is, hire smart people w ho care as much about OUR clients and other significant others as you do..
