A City of Chicago Department of Streets and Sanitation garbage truck. Chicago Illinois. January 2008.

I took this photo one overcast winter day, in January of 2008.

Seen here facing west on West Addison Street near the diagonal intersection at Forest Preserve Drive, is a weather beaten and well used Volvo garbage truck from the City Of Chicago Department Of Streets And Sanitation. The crew was enjoying a well deserved lunch break at a nearby fast food stand. This is very hard and heavy physical work, and a hearty appetite is a given for Chicago's dedicated sanitation crews.
