Uh, at age 4, I doubt it. He's 27 now. Why?

I was chatting one day with the head of MK Custodial about his recent vacation to Paris:

"I thought we were having a wonderful afternoon, strolling down the Champ de Elysee, stopping for lunch at a sidewalk cafe, and shopping a bit, when all of a sudden, my wife takes my arm in a death grip and whispers through clenched teeth, 'I swear to God, if you pick up one more piece of trash I am going to toss your body into the Seine and go home alone!'"

He hadn't even realized he was doing it.

Yowzers! I'm glad I'm not that bad about it. Yesterday I was coming down Center Street to go check on my cart near the castle (I was stocking). As I approached the corner I saw two of my coordinators coming up Main Street heading in the same direction. At the corner there was a piece of trash on the ground and as I got there just ahead of the coordinators I picked it up. One of them thanked me and I joke about how it gets to be a habit and how I find myself doing it even when playing in the parks and he said he finds himself doing it at Wal*Mart sometimes.

But doing it in France while on vacation? That takes the cake right there.

I don't know that I'd be picking up trash at WalMart, considering the source of some of that trash, but you know, if we ALL picked up trash when we saw it the world, and he World, would be a lot cleaner. Littering is one of my pet peeves, as there is no excuse for it other than careless disregard for other people and their property. :mad:

I pick up trash at World of Fun all the time. I had to stop myself one day in the Spinning Dragons line, I had several items with no trashcan in sight. I quickly told my boyfriend (an attractions supervisor) that WoF should add more trashcans to their queue because I think a big part of the problem is that people get tired of holding empty wrappers/bottles.

I also find myself doing the Disney point, calling every little girl I meet princess (as in "excuse me princess), and offering to take photos for families so everyone can be in the picture. My family finds it hilarious.

You're right, I haven't. I'm very particular about the movies I see. The last one was "The Polar Express."
