Who exactly comes up with job descriptions these days? I ask because to say that the bin collections in my area have been erratic of late is something of an understatement. So imagine my joy at the announcement in the local paper last week that the council has decided to act – it has appointed “the Waste Wizard”. (Notice the capital letters and definite article; not just any old waste wizard.)
Alas, the identity of this force for positive change is top secret, but I’m reassured that they “will ensure the district’s waste services get back on track as soon as possible”. I await a magical transformation with bated breath.
