I've seen a few female garbage collectors. Besides, you're missing the point. Do you hear MEN complaining about not being able to get a job as a garbage man? Would YOU settle for such a job instead of a high-pay, high-enjoyment job? There are certain jobs in every sector that are high pay and selective simply because of the nature of the work, eg., dangerous, dirty, repugnant, or requiring certain physical or other special abilities. They are high-pay because not everyone wants to do them. Including some men. B. Walsh
