Very well written, and a very good lesson. One I have already learned.

I worked for four years as a janitor/maintenance crew for a local retail store. It disgusted me on daily basis how nasty, dirty and down-right skanky people can be when they know other people are cleaning up ther mess. We arrived at 7am and the store opened at 10am. So for 3 hours we cleaned the store top to bottom without customer interruption. I must say we did a pretty good job.

On most days the bathrooms were filthy by noon to 1pm and on weekends they were completely disgusting by 11 am at the latest. That means it only took the public roughly an hour to completely destroy a bathroom. And I'm sorry to point out, the women's restroom was always the worst. Some of the disgusting things people would leave behind that you are postive they would not do in their own household would amaze me on a daily basis. Dirty diapers left out on the counter, human feces all around the toilet, etc.

The biggest surpise is when I discovered that women liked to use the dressing rooms as a toilet. We found all sorts of interesting "surprises" the the wastebaskets. I caught a woman letting her son piss in the corner of the dressing room. "Well, he had to go!" was her reason. I pointed out where the bathrooms were. "I was busy trying on clothes" she responded. "Would you let him do that at home?" I asked. "NO" she resonded as she huffed off, kid in tow. We closed off the fitting room the rest of the day and I informed everyone who inquired why that a mother let her little boy use it as a bathroom. Some people actually responded with "So, what's the big deal?"

I didn't mean to threadjack, but I agree with what JinnKai and others have mentioned. Not only to treat others with respect, but have some common decency and respect while you're out in the world. Don't take a piss in a trashcan just because you know some other poor soul has to clean it, not you. If I find you doing that, I will come over to your house and take a big dump in the middle of your bed, and I'll have Taco Bell for lunch.

And, even though I've never been to the Cheyenne Mountain Zoo, thank you for cleaning it to make it a better experience for the people who are there.
