Bit of a frustrating day today (Jane needs a whinge 😬) I loaded up a sharing shelf at 7.30am. A man arrived and sat in his van watching (I got an instant bad vibe which I know to trust) he came for a peruse when it seemed I was finished. Something made me loiter tho (1/...?)
I pretended to be sorting the crates and saw him take three boxes of goodies to his van until finally I said “Can you please leave something for others?” To his credit be bought one box back .. (Could be cos he saw me take his pic?) 😈 but it all kinda felt bad vs good 😐
Went to the next sharing (key word “sharing!”) shelf and loaded it up. One lady came and took umpteen bags of stuff. Same happened at the next one 🤦♀️
I guess I just have to hope they’re sharing the love w friends / family and not hoarding or wasting it!?
Just felt like there was an element of “gimme” going on 😕
On a plus note, a lady turned up at the depot 3pm while I was making up a food parcel for the cops* w herbs & veges from her garden hoping we could “home” them. That’s what it is about for me! #zerowaste#foodrescue
*we are often called by the cops after they’ve done a domestic dispute and while taking someone away they observe empty cupboards / hungry kids. Just heartbreaking. Why are humans so shitty? 👎🏻
