Some old people are addicted to collecting junk, which has little to do with pensions.
Of course, there are two kinds of old people who pick up junk. One is that the pension is really low and can't meet the daily expenses of the family. When you are old, if you can't work, no one will use it. Just pick up junk to increase your income and go out early every day to pick it up.
The second is that there are many pensions, so you go out to pick up junk when you are idle, but you don't have to pick it up. You just look at it and never fight for it.
So, you don't have to persuade her, just let her do it. Picking up junk is also an exercise. Just tell him that she comes back every day to wash her hands and disinfect, because the trash can is dirty and won't be infected with germs.
You are a relative who spent more than 8000 yuan to support the elderly and collect junk. First of all, it is an honorable act for him to admit it. It has contributed to urban environmental protection. If the money sold is for your own use, it is not donated to public welfare undertakings. I don't approve of his collecting garbage. Because the vast majority of urban garbage collectors are vulnerable groups. Retirement wages are particularly low. Some old people who go to the city have no salary. They make a living by picking up rubbish. A relative of yours earns so much money, and he is still fighting for jobs and money with the disadvantaged groups. You really shouldn't. Grandparents who pick up waste. They also know that waste products are dirty. However, there is no way to live. If you earn more money, you have nothing to do. We can engage in the beautiful construction of cities. You can patrol the community or serve in the traffic post. Why do you have to compete with vulnerable groups to pick up garbage? You can't say that you are ill. At least you are a narrow-minded person. You'd better change your lifestyle after retirement. There is also an elderly activity center. There are all kinds of entertainment activities in the activity room. Can I travel with good economic conditions? Yes, your behavior of picking up garbage. Relatives and children may disagree. As a bystander, I don't want you to compete with the disadvantaged for this position.
This is nothing to be surprised about.
My two uncles, one retired from the position of the principal of the Municipal Normal School and the other retired from the position of the manager of the Municipal Grain Station.
I'm not sure about their pension geometry. They should be in a good position in our small city with a population of six lines 1 more than ten thousand, right?
The son-in-law is the leader of the Judicial Bureau, the son-in-law is the leader of the Municipal Public Security Bureau, the son has his own company and the daughter has a public institution. Everyone else has their own careers.
Two old people like this.
Don't worry about eating and wearing. As soon as I retired, I took my wife back to my hometown in the countryside. I planted an apple orchard in my hometown, leaving early and returning late, busy facing the loess and facing the sky.
My knowledge of planting apple orchards is zero, so I consult others everywhere, buy books for self-study and seriously discuss practice.
The apple tree began to bear fruit, but it was too old to manage, so I gave the orchard to my nephew in the country and took my wife back to the city to support the elderly.
Still can't stay.
The two brothers still couldn't stay any longer and began to plan to open a small shop. The children couldn't beat two people, so they had to find a place for them, get documents and buy goods, so this 40-square-meter shop opened.
My parents gave me an adverb, which is "an old horse lurks, aiming at a thousand miles" to ridicule.
They accepted it and hung it on the wall in the middle of the shop.
On a whim, addicted
Because shops have waste paper such as paper shells to sell, and then there are waste products and beverage bottles in the street, garbage cans in the community, as well as beverage bottles and waste paper shells to pick up.
Hi! The two men took turns guarding the store and went out to pick up waste. The more they pick up, the more addicted they are, and the more they pick up, the more they can't stop.
No matter what store it is, I dragged my two uncles and grandmothers to guard the store, and his two brothers went out to collect waste together, and no one could persuade them. Fortunately, I didn't take it home, but put it in the store and sold it in the paper shell of the store.
Their fun
I don't like drinking tea, playing cards and all kinds of entertainment. If you don't participate in all the activities organized by the community, you will go your own way.
It is said that taking the money from picking up waste products is as exciting as getting the first salary when you just joined the job.
Whenever there is a disaster in the country, it always donates money to help others.
It is also a great blessing in life to be able to create wealth by yourself when you are old. Enjoy it, why not? Filial piety, filial piety, just follow them. When people are old and want to do what they want, let them do it well. Good health, disease-free and disaster-free, is a child's greatest blessing. Why should we persuade them in the opposite direction?
It's nothing to earn 8 thousand yuan as a garbage collector. The wife of our family cadres at the department level still collects garbage every day.
Aunt cat is now in her seventies. Her husband is a departmental cadre, and she is also a cadre. Although I don't know how much money she earns every month, she certainly doesn't worry about eating and drinking. Although the house she lives in is old, it is a single house, which is rare in the city now. Aunt cat wears long leather gloves and holds a long wooden clip at 8 o'clock every morning, rummaging in the trash can in the yard. She rummaged through more than a dozen trash cans in front of and behind her yard, and then put the old waste paper that could be sold into big cartons and dragged it back to her yard. Garbage in the yard often piles up into mountains. Once her son came home and was unhappy. He threw away all the junk she had piled up in the yard. She picked it up after her son left.
We think she is old and often give her plastic bottles, express boxes and old newspapers to persuade her not to pick up garbage. She said: "Old arms and legs, don't move." Someone said behind her back that she was an old money addict. Later, it was found that she bought a lot of cat food and dog food with the money from selling waste products and fed it to stray cats and dogs. Several stray cats follow her ass every day, and that's how she got her name.
Old people can't stay with their children all the time, and they are lonely at home, so they have to do something to make up for it. Some old people choose to dance square dance, some like to play mahjong, and some go to universities for the elderly ... Compared with these old people, Aunt Cat's choice is not elegant, a little dirty and a little tired, but we can see that she has maintained the good habit of thrift of the older generation and is kind-hearted. As a younger generation, as long as what the old people do is not out of line, they should respect their choices. What we have to do is to help them do a good job of security and let them spend their old age happily and safely.
There is no need to persuade. It's also interesting for the elderly. There is nothing wrong with increasing income. You can also do something for environmental protection. As long as the old man is happy, friends and relatives had better give him more praise and encouragement. Just don't make the old man tired. After all, health is the most important.
There is no need to make a fuss, is there? Who didn't stipulate that 8000 yuan pension can't pick up waste? Not illegal, not chaotic, not harmful to society, not disturbing the people. What is there to persuade? As long as he enjoys it, let him go.
It's best not to persuade him. He likes to pick and choose, let him go. This is also a habit, a sustenance. Kind of a hobby. There is a man across from my house. Besides picking up garbage, he also went to the country to buy some kittens to sell in the city. His living room is full of all kinds of tattered elephant heads. One day, the garbage collector came to pull it and asked him how much it was. He said 3.2 thousand. Your relative's pension is only 8,000 yuan, and the person I'm talking about only rents 1 10,000 yuan a month (he has a shop on the street with an annual rent of1.20,000 yuan)! It's still the same to rummage through the trash can every day to find waste. Even the rural people who transformed the community felt that his house smelled bad and didn't want to go in for construction, which had nothing to do with his 8 thousand pension!
Junk picking has nothing to do with pensions. Personally, I don't think I am obsessed with picking up waste, but I feel bored after retirement. As long as it is good for body and mind, it doesn't matter what you do, just be happy.
In my opinion, this is a good thing!
1. Just because someone picks up junk, there is a lot of rubbish in the street.
2. Because someone picks up junk, some discarded items can play a role.
Picking up junk after retirement not only exercises the body, but also creates income, and should not interfere.
Picking up junk is beneficial and harmless to the country, the people and themselves, and should be respected!
This may be the spiritual sustenance of the retired elderly, which is understandable and should not be harsh.
