Gee, sorry to hear that. I think everyone should contribute.
I'm all for going green, etc.......but now my employer (not my boss) wants Floor Captains designated to compile all the plastic coke bottles, etc.
Not to mention we would be responsible for hauling them to the recycling center.
WTF???????????My boss kindly told them no, we aren't interested.

I'm all for contributing, but it's not my responsibility to make sure they get in the recycling bins at the end of EACH day.
Apparently you're only partially for going green.
And only when it's convenient.
I recycle at home.
Im not green but if any female posters want to save water and shower with me im all for saving the environment.
Our BOD just recycled our CEO last night ... and everyone is pretty happy about that.
We have huge recycle bins for paper at our work ... we just have boxes by the printer & copier that we fill up and then go take to the bin. It's not that big of a deal.
I don't think we do as much as we should at home, though.![]()
We've been recycling paper for years here at work and that's fine. But now come plastic recycling.
BTW.....most of the paper we recycle ends up in the freakin dumpster.![]()
Oh, and they do have a bin for soda cans in the break room, but I'm not sure who's in charge of that.
You didn't get the memo? You have been appointed Floor Captain!![]()
recycle paper...yes
recycle water...yes
recycle plastic....yes
recycle aluminum....yes
we have bins and a company comes and picks it up, now.
we use to only have paper recycle and a recycle paper dumpster out back (about 1/2 a mile) and i would take our building's paper to the paper dumpster to have it recycled. i would have help but it would take an hour, so i would do it after work and put an extra hour on my time card.
My recycle bin is always twice as full as my trash. And I 100% disagree with the collective decision to not recycle at work; you, your boss and your co-workers should listen to your eco-conscious employer.
Between recycling the recyclables and composting the green waste, my actual garbage can takes forever to fill up.
Now that the city was kind enough to give us those big blue trash cans, yes.
So somebody asked for volunteers to help recycle. Waaahhh! The ing NERVE of some people, let's start an entire thread to about someone asking for volunteers to make the earth a little cleaner.
Yup. It's amazing, between me and my roommate we tend to take over a week sometimes to fill a 10-gal trash can, which isn't very big. But our recycling bin is always overflowing by Thursday pickup. I would say our ratio is easily 4:1. It's amazing when you start recycling, realizing how much crap you used to throw away that can be easily recycled with little to no extra effort on your part.My recycle bin is always twice as full as my trash.
Been recycling for about 15 years now. Its pretty easy.
If you are really serious about recycling you will drink your own urine.
That explains how you get off thinking you're Einstein.
I recycle at home and at work.![]()
We don't recycle at all.
My dog would recycle his poop by eating it
in the states i usually would recycle plastic bottles n stuff
but sometimes people at my internet cafe accidentally print something by mistake so instead of throwing it away I usually use the back to print minor stuff or scratch paper.
I agree with many of the above posters, recycling is easy.
Recycling at home is easy. How difficult is it to rinse out a can and then throw it into the blue container instead of the brown one? At work there's more effort involved - and nobody wants to take time to put in the effort.
