janice shanks trash ohio mayor officeSup,

I had a bunch of trash over the Labor Day weekend due to a little gathering that took place at my house that Sunday, and it kinda sucked waiting ’til Wednesday for it all to get picked up.  Matter of fact, I remember forgetting to take the trash out a few years ago and the smell that came with accumulating two weeks of garbage. It was disgusting, not to mention, embarrassing!  Janice Shanks, of Portsmouth, Ohio, had a bunch of trash over the holiday weekend, as well, but the city didn’t pick it up. Her response was less than serene.

According to Dig Triad:

Portsmouth, OH — An Ohio woman frustrated by the mix-up of the trash pick-up schedule after the Labor Day holiday decided to haul her own garbage — right into her mayor’s office.

Janice Shanks carried two bags of refuse into Portsmouth Mayor David Malone’s office on Friday morning.

Shanks says she had more garbage than normal because of a holiday family get-together, and the lack of collection put her in “a real pickle.”

A really rancid pickle! David Malone, astonishingly, accepted the trash dump! Up for re-election soon, Mr. Mayor?
