Actually a "garbage man" is reported to make an average income of between $33,000 and $43,000 per year, with minimal training requirement, which is NOT minimum wage by a far shot.

Yes I have, in northern Minnesota no less. However, this thread and my comment was not about that, nor was I making any statement about whether that average wage was either too high or too low, only responding to the inaccurate statement that a "garbage man" is paid minimum wage.
Apparently, even "Garbage Men" are smart enough not to work for the low wages that regional pilots work for - but that is just my opinion, your opinion may be different.
BTW - I have nothing against either Garbage Men or Pilots!
