    Certainly dustmen prefer to be known as "Reuse Collection and Disposal Officers". You may think that this is rather    36  , and it is better to call a spade a spade. But dustmen can be as    37   as people of any other occupation, though we must     38    that their job is not a    39     one in the world. We often take dustmen for granted. Perhaps because they usually come very early in the morning, before most people are     40    .We are likely to forget their     41    .Our dustbins are    42    regularly, but we    43     stop to think about the men who do this. However, it is one of the most important jobs in the world, and when there are no dustmen to    44    the rubbish, the general    45    soon becomes aware that something is wrong. Recently, the dustmen of England went on strike for higher wages.

During the first few days it was regarded as a    46   .But when the first two weeks had passed, and the dustbins were overflowing in nearly every backyard in the country, the joke did not seem so    47    any more.    48    the strike continued, people could not    49    the hills of rubbish around their dustbins, and they looked for other places in which to    50   it. Even Leicester Square, in the heart of West End of London, was    51    high with plastic bags full of smelly rubbish. This was a（n）    52    attraction that the people of London were not at all     53    to see. Even when the strike was over, it took several weeks for the country to get cleaned up completely. Perhaps now the English people appreciate the work of    54   dustmen rather more    55    and won't take them for granted any more.

    So I’m driving the lovely and patient older daughter to work. At 7 a. m., she pushes the seat

warmer button as her new Honda zooms across L. A., the City of Padded Shoulders.

"Oh, look, I’m low on gas," she says.

First, we pick up her boss, then we pick up her other boss. They are all headed to Staples Center for some awards show. My daughter does something in public relations, I’m not sure what. But when this show comes along, she gets very busy.

"In the past two nights I’ve gotten, like, seven hours sleep," she notes, the implication being that I sleep all the time, which is pretty much true.

In Los Feliz, a dashboard light confirms that we are, indeed, low on fuel. This does not perturb my daughter.

"Don’t worry, we’ll get there," she says.

My daughter says nothing about getting back home, which is my job. I’ve just agreed to drop her off, so she can avoid traffic later. My task is simple, though now full of uncertainty.

I don’t know how I ended up dropping my daughter and her bosses off at 7 a.m. on a Sunday. I just know that J.D. Salinger may now be dead, but I still feel like Holden Caulfield -- at the mercy of too many yammering adults.

Now, I’ve had mixed luck with adults.

Apparently, my daughter’s job in PR is to keep everyone happy while telling the truth as much as possible. I sent her to college to study that. Now she is an expert.

"After you drop us off, you can get gas," my daughter assures me.

I have been her chauffeur for 26 years. By the time she was 3, I’d snapped her into a car seat some 14,000 times. I took her to seventh-grade dances, ski trips, college.

Even after all that, we continue to have a civil relationship, sort of a queen-mum-and-her-

driver sort of dynamic. When I screw up, she just raises her pretty chin and snorts. It’s very British.

By the way, my daughter now has a nicer car than I do, which is a sign she is doing well. Or, as with so many young people, she is up to her hoop earrings in consumer debt.
