#CleanUpYourTrash

cleanupyourtrash

My co-workers are really funny. We have this email thread called “Clean Up Your Trash” going on at work because sometimes we have a little bit of trouble picking up after ourselves. Whenever a co-workers spots a piece of trash – leftover plate, dirty napkin, crumbs on the floor, etc – we’re supposed to take a picture of it and add it to the thread to publicly shame them even though we don’t know who did it. Pretty recently, I was trying to re-stock the utensils during lunch when the whole bag ripped open and all of the forks fell to the floor around my feet. I was hoping that no one caught this, but as soon as I looked out into the cafe, there Jason was – cellphone in hand snapping away.

This picture showed up in an email later on that day with the hashtag #cleanupyourtrash.
