Part of being an adult is knowing that no job is great 100 percent of the time, but that doesnt mean there isnt joy to be had even if you work with garbage. - photo by Martha Ostergar
THE CURB Part of being an adult is knowing that no job is great 100 percent of the time.

Its inevitable that decisions in and out of our control at work can really make things feel tough. Maybe you have a boss like Lumbergh in Office Space that asks you to come in on weekends all the time. Maybe you feel like the system is broken in your office and youre raging against the machine like Mr. Incredible. Or maybe your job is literally dealing with garbage.

Dont get me wrong, theres nothing bad about dealing with garbage. In fact, Im more than grateful it gets taken care with little inconvenience to me, and I respect the men and women who do me a solid every garbage day. That being said, you have to admit that working amongst garbage isnt the most pleasant work environment.

But that doesnt stop a man named Jack in this video from creating large amounts of absolute joy as he picks up garbage in his truck. I defy you not to grin from ear-to-ear as Jack narrates his attempts to maneuver a mattress into his truck with the arm meant for lifting cans.

Its probably the happiest thing youll see all day, which is probably why this 2-year-old video is currently gaining traction online.
