Throwing glass bottles out of moving car or wearing muddy boots into a shop and leaving the mess for someone else to clean up – it doesn’t matter. Both are indicative if a lack of respect for our environment and other people, which I believe is the point of the OP.

This comment relates to the hi-viz guys I saw in Gungahlin Maccas a couple of months ago. About 8 of them sat near us and took up the entire long table at one section of the store. They were all filthy dirty and covered in sweat & dirt, and their boots in big clods of mud. They totally trashed the area (nothing new there, I guess) and departed the store leaving mud and dirt all over the section where they’d been. Ages of the workers ranged from very young to about 50. No consideration for other people. Sure, they have a right to eat but really need to at least remove their boots before entering the store.

Yes! how disgusting of them to be out working all day in the sun, building things in our city, like say all those fuckin ugly houses in Crace or the Stupid tall apartment towers of Belconnen, Woden, and Civic and its surrounding suburbs? Fixing roads, fixing homes, building parks and car parks and when they are hungry you want them to go hide themselves because god forbid they go into a freaking McDonalds – because we all know kids are so clean in McDonalds. aren’t they?. Truly sickening to read this kind of stuff, putting shit on men who are out working from Dawn till Dusk while you either sit in a air conditioned office or at home on your arse finger painting with your kids. Which one is it oh person of such high distinction that you cannot see dirt covered working men in the street or begrudge them trying to eat what food they can get in their breaks from building the city you live in. ???

Agree, but did you mean to put a comma, between arse and finger?

Disregarding the fact that I don’t know what an arse finger is, (and would rather not thank you), I disagree. It doesn’t matter where you choose to buy and eat your food, you do have an obligation to leave it in the way that you found it. And if you don’t want to take off your muddy boots, you should be asking for a broom with which to clean up your mess. I expect you would be one of those who moans about messy horrible children in eateries, and expects parents to clean up after their little darlings. Same thing.

If you don’t know, just google it.

Actually no – I do not begrudge people leaving mess, I do not begrudge people doing anything at all.. I’m not a whinger.
What I do take exception to is the snooty tone taken “Dirty Workers” seriously? like someone told you, that you were better than anyone else?
You want to make a mess fine, I personally do not care. I clean up after my own kids, and i make sure I am not in peoples way – doesn’t mean I whinge at people who have been working very hard all day and only have enough time to grab shit food like maccas. I give some people a break – it’s too bad your not as accommodating to your fellow human.

Maybe so but does that give them the right to go into someone elses store & treat it with a lack of respect?

I am a mechanic by trade and was always very mindful of what I did while in work uniform.

To the OP, you should try riding a bike sometime. Bottle breaking farktards are everywhere.

LOL, true. Perhaps, he can have a terrible case of gonorrhoea instead.

It is a shame that most times when driving around Canberra, especially on the morning run or the afternoon drive home, (both trips with children in the car), that the drivers you note to be doing dumb things are wearing hi-viz vests – ‘dirty workers’ as one young lady I had a conversation with called them. And the car is normally populated by a number of other hi-viz wearing occupants who endorse the drivers actions.

I’ve had one or two run-ins with such cars and have wound down my window when stopped at traffic lights, (because we all know that their actions get them no further down the road than anyone else), to let them know that I have a child in the rear of the car and that they should be more responsible. Obviously they don’t take kindly to being confronted and you get a barrage of abuse, but maybe, just maybe they may think a bit more in the future…if that’s at all possible with their meager braincells.
