Leaves not picked up in timely fashion

To the editor:
Am I the only one who believes if the city can't keep up with the leaf pick up maybe they should go back to picking them up the way they did before our fearless leaders decided sucking them up is better?
I live on the northeast side of town on Oakland Road. As I write this, the truck went around the corner. This will only be the second time they have been here. It doesn't even look like I cleaned the leaves up. The wind has blown them all back in the yard.
Put more trucks out or scoop the leaves off the street.
