Your Mother Doesn't Work Here. . .

Former McDonald’s employee, myself, and you know, I really didn’t mind picking up trays or throwing away the odd wrapper.

What ticked me off were the people who deliberately made a mess, knowing someone was going to have to clean it up.

Does smearing five packets of ketchup on your tray really help you enjoy your fries, ma’am? How about letting your kid stick their hamburger patty to the window? And while that salt drawing on the table is attractive, the next person to sit there isn’t going to enjoy it.

Sheesh.

That just means more popcorn for us slobs who go around after the credits have been rolling for a couple minutes, dumping the contents of all the discarded half-empty popcorn containers into our now-empty giant popcorn tubs. (If I pay $4.00 for popcorn, by golly, I’m getting my money’s worth!)

Well, I don’t litter because my mother and father taught me that it is wrong. I clean up after myself for the same reason (even in a restaurant). I wipe my feet before entering my home, or yours or even a business. The folks at the bank (I made daily deposits) were really wowed by that. It’s called common curtsey and keeping the world looking nice.

Sometimes I wonder if these people never saw the Woodsy Owl or Crying Indian ads… how flippen hard is it to walk over to a garbage can and throw something away?

Tracer: that’s really disgusting!

Hey, where’s the pro-pollution crowd with the rebuttal?

What gets me is the people who take stuff out into the desert or down by the river and dump it. I take a walk out on the mesa to enjoy the scenery, and there’s trash everywhere. I go down to the river to enjoy the scenery, and there’s trash everywhere. There’s no escaping it. And people wonder why everybody else in the state makes fun of our town.

Cessandra: I dunno, movie popcorn seems like it tastes better when I don’t pay for it.

Unless somebody dumped their Coke into their popcorn container before they left. Then it’s disgusting.

I have to say that I’m basically Super Non-Litterer. I’ve been known not only to carry trash in my pocket until I find a bin, but to carry aluminum cans large glass bottles in my pocket until I find a blue box.
