I am not perfect. Nobody is. The following is a short tale of a mistake that I made. You will be given the opportunity to think about what you would’ve done in this situation.
Sunday morning, 10:00am – I take out the trash and replace the trash bag.
Sunday evening, 7pm – Upon making dinner, I realize that my meat has gone bad.
What do I do?
Obviously, I should throw it away. But if I throw it away, it’ll likely make my apartment smell bad.
But if I throw it away and then take the trash out again, this will be a waste of a trash bag. My current trash bag is completely empty!
What would you do?
Looking back, I would’ve just eaten the cost of the wasted trash bag and just taken the trash out. What I did instead was:
- Take out a new trash bag
- Throw the bad meat into the new trash bag
- Roll up the new trash bag to make it harder for odor to escape.
- Toss the rolled up trash bag with the rotten meat into my trash can.
- Called it a day.
So I managed to find the solution that both stunk up my apartment and wasted the trash bag.
v. nice work
This is why you save some bags when going food shopping.
i threw bad beef out in my garbage of my apartment without bagging it and got scolded by my apartment mates because i didnt think to reason that it would smell. my bad. clearly im spoiled by my mom who takes care of things like that
