As he looks at the rubbish spilling out from the top of the bin, local man Thomas Hewitt lets out a resigned sigh.
He hates doing the bin liner.
Not necessarily because he’s lazy, though yeah, he is, but because it’s such a fuck around.
See, he’s never quite learned the fine art of getting one to stay up, and it’s never nice to face your shortcomings. In fact, outside of mopping, it’s probably one of his least preferred household tasks.
But seeing as no one will be home for the remainder of the day and he doesn’t want to become the designated ‘house slob’, Thomas is now forced to step up. Or he can at least try to anyway, because at the end of the day, it’s the thought that counts.
Pulling out one of the liners from the roll underneath the sink, Thomas is able to get the bag around the top of the lid relatively easily but is quickly thwarted as he tries to figure out a way to stop it from falling down. A task that proves impossible, as his dummy test of dropping in an apple core sees the liner immediately collapsing into the bottom of the bin.
Though he tries a few more times, Thomas has no other choice but to place it in a way that gives the illusion it’s been done properly, and leave the problem to another roomie to sort out.
More to come.
