Taking out the trash

So when I was in elementary school in second grade, everyone had to take turns taking out the trash. You had to walk all the way down to the 5th grade corridor, where the kids were bigger than you. It took about 7 or 8 minutes to walk down to the big trash room, and by the time you got back, you usually missed the first 10 minutes of afternoon snacktime, and all the good snacks would be gone. The day came when it was my turn. As I walked down the hallway, I noticed that one classroom had left their trashcans out partly filled for whatever reason. I dumped my trash into their trashcans and got back to my classroom. As I looked back, I saw the kid from the other classroom come out to take the trash out. My teacher thought I was amazing for being so efficient and gave me an extra snack. The other kid had to take out two classroom's worth of trash.
