I knew this sort of trouble would happen when they started to replace the flaps with the embossed "PUSH" with plain flaps, but do they ever listen to the likes of me?

:shaker:
At my work they actually had to put signs on all the doors saying push/pull because some %#@$ tried to push a door with turn handle and fell down. Note outside doors all have turn handles. Inside all doors have push bars. Go figure.

:confused:

I used to own a Zolatoned piano. Tone was actually pretty good despite that. Miss it at times.

I know that feeling, the SG are at my cart. There are 3 different trash cans within 20 feet. They would rather dump the garbage on the counter with the napkin dispencers. I don't remember my cart looking like a city dump. :mad:

It's too bad Push couldn't sneak up behind this individual and make fun of him (of course, in a Disneyfied way)...

So I just had this happen @ DCA today. This guy kept fumbling with his trash trying to ram it into every side of the trashcan. I finally walked over and showed him the flap, the amazed look on his face was priceless.

Wow. Makes you wonder how he found the floor when he got out of bed that morning. :eek: :rolleyes:

Based on the evidence provided, I would say "with his face".

I saw a lady debate which trash can to throw a plastic bottle into. One was a trash can, and the other that says "CANS" and "PLASTIC BOTTLES" she went back and forth and threw it into the trash can. I guess she might not want to recycle it, but I thought it was funny.

I have seen people shove paper cups into the recycle cans before.

Welcome, and don't worry. Custodial has people scheduled that go ahead and sort these anyway. She may not have wanted to recycle it, but it got recycled nonetheless...
