In a recent TikTok video by @sydneywater, two municipal sewer workers give a candid and humorous take on the realities of their job, starting each statement with, "We work with sewage, of course we..." From dealing with unexpected messes to handling equipment malfunctions, their lighthearted approach shines a spotlight on the often-overlooked work they do daily.

Working in municipal sewer services isn’t for the faint of heart. As the video captures, these workers face unique challenges that most people don’t think about, but their dedication keeps our communities clean and safe.
