Are you THAT lazy?

Working in a public building, with a public restroom, you expect to see and smell a few things. The biggest thing to "get my goat" so to speak is the absolute lazy behavior of my co-workers.

Growing up, oh so many years ago, a basic principle was taught to me- trash belongs in the trashcan. This isn't a hard, or even new concept, so why is it so hard for grown women to grasp this concept? Every day I walk into the restroom to find not a trashcan that has overflown because it hasn't been emptied, but a half full trashcan with trash STILL on the floor. Really? What is the problem? You managed to actually wash your hands, but can't manage to make the drop in the can? And you know what? I am absolutely embarrassed by this utter lack of respect. You make everyone look bad with your poor behavior.


Worse yet, our office recently implemented a new cleaning/trash service, and we are now responsible for taking out our own office trash. When you wonder where that rotten, half eaten sandwich smell is lurking from, it's probably directed from one of their offices.

Lovely.
