Corruption

We had to get the sewerage line cleaned. There is a pressure jet/suction machine with the sewerage board. You talk to them 'personally', negotiate a price and get the job done. When I asked the driver what was the amount to be paid, he said "You know, the usual". I couldn't refuse. The only relief is that the line is cleaned and we need not suffer from the bad smell.
