Started at a new office today....

I gasped when I walked into the common kitchen, they use styrofoam cups for coffee and tea!  And there are no paper recycling bins!  I have to run out to a drugstore tomorrow and buy some sort of reusable mug-thing to keep at the office so I can avoid using styrofoam.

Re: Started at a new office today....

  • Yikes! styrofoam seriously skeezes me out. I keep my own cups, plates and silverware in a drawer in my office. I even have a few cloth napkins I switch out. If I dont use disposable things at home, Im not doing it at work either.

    It just stinks trying to wash everything in a small bathroom sink. Our office is in an old converted school so there is no luck finding a decent sink in this place. I make it work.

  • I'm pretty sure people in my office think I'm the recycling nazi.  When I first got here the people that worked upstairs weren't recycling anything since the bin was downstairs.  Keep in mind, the combined upstairs offices probably produce at least a dozen cans per day.  I was able to have a recycling bin put upstairs and they started recycling again.  I still get mad at people when I see cans in their wastebaskets.  I feel like I'm also constantly pulling soup cans out of the trash too.  Overall, I feel like I've made improvements since I've been here so anything is possible.  Good luck!
