Sweeper
Continued from Page 3
we are baring down closely onto
the rear end of a parked Honda
Civic. I wonder if my constant
chatter has distracted Nick from
his concentration. Or do small
cars get swept up with the
leaves? I brace my feet against
the floor board, as we're only
about eight feet from the car's
taillights and I know this giant
machine can't turn in time to
avoid the collision. My eyes
close and my teeth grit.
Nick doesn't miss a beat. We
swerve around the car. missing
it by inches, and slide back to
the curb in front of the car.
“The parked cars are a
nuisance. You just try to get in
between each one if you see that
you have a little extra space.
You don't want to push it too
much."
Once in a while the street
sweeper hits a car. not very
often. "The hardest part about
the job is watching your ass."
Nick says. He got rearended by
a car on Coburg Road one night.
"It usually don't hurt the
sweeper too much.” Nick says.
He's more afraid of sweeping
into a bicyclist who glides
through the intersection
without a light when Nick's
looking for the cars.
Nick has been working the
night shift most of his 28 years
with the city.
"I kind of like it." he says.
"The night shift has been good
to me when my wife was work
ing and we were raising a
family.
"It's surprising how many
people work nights. When you
stop for coffee you always see
people who you get acquainted
with over the years. ! talk with
the garbage man and janitors
and see how their night's
going.
'Tve heard a lot of comments
over the years from visitors to
Eugene who say it's really a
clean town. That makes a per
son feel good when you're
working with it.”
