Another trash-related petty annoyance
Why the FUCK can't the people who empty the trash and recycling bins put the damned things back where they came from, rather than at the edge of the desk, out of arm's reach and in a spot where anything that falls off the desk will land in the garbage? Is this an industry standard -- the default position for office trash receptacles?
I mean, I'm nice, I don't leave onion-and-sauce-laden sandwich wrappings or half-empty cups of liquid in the trash so that they have to change the plastic liners. All I'm asking is that if they are going to enter my office to do their jobs, they respect my space enough to put things back where they got them from. Oh, and it would also be helpful, when an errant piece of paper strays from the path between my bin and theirs, that they pick it up, rather than leave it on the floor.
Come on people, give the penguin a break. It's not that easy to bend over and pick up anything, no matter how light.
