Three separate places I went to at 8 in the morning. Gas station, dunkin’ donuts, and then a convenience store. All of them, trash is full. People wonder why they litter in the USA, there’s nowhere to throw away trash when you’re out. It’s unbelievable People can just go to work and choose not to do their job anymore. That people see this and they don’t have any problem with it, no interest at all to keep things neat and tidy and clean. Nope.
Or, hear me out… carry it until you find one with room? If finding full trash cans “forces” you to litter, that says more about you being an entitled piece of shit than it does about anything else.
“I couldn’t find a single vacant public toilet, so I did what any sensible person would do and took a shit in the middle of the sidewalk.” —OP, analogously
Literally what happens in a lot of places. Even Europe has a noticeable pee smell sometimes.
You’re asking people to take on extra work. Some might. Others won’t or even can’t if they’re really in a tight spot.
Especially in the US where people drive everywhere more often than not. Keep a small trash bag in your car, empty it when you get home.
The trouble with that approach is that my garbage cans fill up at home, and I’m too lazy to take them out to the dumpster.
OP didn’t say he littered. But of course we always assume the worst around here.
Yeah! Fuck you OP!
Well, they’re blaming “lazy workers” instead of the litterers, so yeah, I’m inclined to believe the worst about them, too.
