"I'll Just Go Drive Trash Trucks"
******EDIT: I’m not “pocket watching” I was asking a genuine question. God I hate the internet.
******EDIT 2: my question is answered in the below episode of “Are You Garbage?” in great detail. Hilarious listen thank you to the user who suggested it in the comments.

OP below ⬇️
Does the McCusker family have a monopoly over waste management in PA?
A quick caveat here is that I listen to way too much of this show. I was top 3% of listeners last year on Spotify. Ten thousand-plus minutes of MSSP. I'm not proud of that. I should be listening to audio books or otherwise trying to self-improve. It's just that we had a kid last year so I was kinda just stuck with a newborn for countless hours. Listened to the dawgs to stay sane. They absolutely helped me through a very difficult period of life.
Anyway a recurring theme I've noticed between Warmode and MSSP is that seemingly all McCusker stories about school, work, etc. inevitably end in the phrase "...then I (or he) just said screw that, I'll just go drive trash trucks." This isn't just as it relates to Billy and Matt. It's their extended family as well. Like they've got an endless treasure trove of trash truck-driving uncles.
That type of thing was never an option for me growing up. Like I didn't have a fall-back option of a trash truck with my name on it. Do they have a family business? Are they the Sopranos of PA?
This is a truly trivial question but I've long pondered it.
To clarify I don't "look down" on trash truck drivers or any sort of labor. It's just such a funny, specific, recurring, profession that they mention.
