If only everyone thought about other people before they do anything. I was driving to SS18 one day and I had to pump my car tyres. There must be a million petrol stations along the journey but I've only managed to pump my car tyres after the 7th petrol station, because the air pumps at the first 6 stations either went bonkers or something was missing from the air pumps.
It can be 2 things - either these air pumps were badly maintained (which is likely the case) or people did not bother to take care of them (which is also likely). It's probably both. It infuriated me because it was such a simple errand I had to run but it became such a chore.
On another occasion, the tea lady went on a break for 10 days and in those 10 days, the pantry was filthy. Most did not bother to wash up (even their own measly mug which would take less than a minute) knowing that the tea lady ain't gonna be there to clean up after them. Sighs.
These could happen if we would spare a thought about other people more often:-
Less traffic because we would have kept to our lanes and not jump queues;Less "destroyed" public property, including air pumps at petrol stations and public phones;Church will be cleaner because we would pick up our (and other people's) rubbish from the floor and wherever else - AND we would not leave our bulletins lying on the chairs after service;Guests in church will always have food before the rest of us gobble everything up; No road blockages caused by someone who has double parked or parked almost into the middle of the road;No more mean bosses who pick on you just coz they are having a bad day;No more ringing tones from phones that were not silenced during church service, a movie in the cinema or meetings.It's a hard lesson but we have to learn it, for the sake of others.
On a different subject, something I felt like doing tonight.... (thanks for the encouraging input guys!)
