We all know we will be winners attending this years WASTECON for various reasons, but what specifically is motivating you to attend? Maybe it is for the awesome exibition floor (who does not like big equipment and demonstrations?) or maybe it is for the largest-ever technical session certain to provide you with golden nuggets of information, or maybe the facility tours have captured your attention, or maybe it is for the social and networking opportunties you get with solid waste professionals just like yourself. These are just a few reasons, but I am curious what motivated you to hang with the solid waste high rollers this year.
See you around the bin, Jenna
P.S. I know you rolled your eyes at more gamling metaphors, but they are kind of fun to think up...
