| Philippa, the impression given, at least to me, was that everything was being binned. Trashed. Period. No other alternative was considered. In reading the forum article, that was the first mention of recycling. Something I posited. Again, why else sort most of it so neatly and deliberately? I'm just tired of people assuming the worst from businesses and making assumptions based on half truths, some in the pursuit of gaining followers. Given the holiday, it is entirely possible that all outlets and avenues are/were overloaded. Maybe this wasn't even the first choice but the second or third. It's possible food banks turn things away. They are always trying to balance needs and sometimes, with the best of intention, that box can't get ticked at that moment in time. So instead of villainizing, maybe just take a beat, present options, ask questions. But the immediate tarring and feathering does no favors for anyone nor any purpose. |
