Clean Up After Yourself
Your mother taught you better than to leave your trash behind
When I woke up from my homebound train nap yesterday afternoon there was a crinkled newspaper on the seat next to me (next to my bag technically). Apparently the guy that was sharing my three-seater left his "junk" behind when he left. I will admit to taking advantage of the opportunity to quickly thumb through it, but it should not have been left in the first place.
One or two newspapers left behind can be conveniently "useful". When everyone does it, the train turns into a trash dump. You don't want get me started about people that leave their food trash behind. Disgusting! Ok, I can forgive the times where people accidentally forget to take everything with them, but there's too much trash at times for it all to be simply forgotten.
The train crew already has enough to do and your fellow passengers do not want to deal with your mess. I'm sure your mother (and kindergarten) mentioned this to you.
Please take your trash with you when you detrain. I find it hard to believe that anybody enjoys riding in a trash dump.
This concludes our public service message and soapbox rant. Thank you and good night.
