I’ve been on the receiving end of that before too, at one of the first companies I worked for. It blows, but it taught me a good lesson about what to expect from employers and where to set boundaries between work and life.
My wife gets mad at me sometimes because I put my cigarette butts in my pockets until I can find a garbage all the time and end up smelling like cigarettes
I visited Japan like 15 years ago, your not alone over there. Everyone does that and has little boxes to store them in. This goes for all trash they make, they don’t have trash cans in public since someone abused them once to bomb a train area. I loved it over there… so much care and respect for everything.
Just in case you don’t know about them, consider switching to a dry herb vaporizer. The smoke is much cleaner and doesn’t smell nearly as bad. Also no butts to deal with.
I usually will call out loudly to someone throwing trash on the floor and let them know they dropped something. With the exception of one dude, everyone immediately picks it up out of embarrassment and throws it away. The one dude, in reference, looked at it and said, “That’s not mine”, to which I said I saw him throw it and pointed to the nearest trash can and said he needed to pick it up and throw it there, he eventually did and we both moved on with our lives, otherwise I would have been forced to use the “Your mommy isn’t here to clean up after you” card.
We have a beautiful small Mediterranean Pine forest near my home. Filled to the brim with small black plastic bags filled with dog poop. I think I even took pictures of it once. Enjoy nature!
Lots of the bags are bio-degradable, so they will eventually, in some unit of months or years, break down.
Of course, its the same issue as chucking a banana peel. It fucks with the local environment and will take a long time to be “gone” if you just throw it into a forest and walk away. Enough people do that, and eventually you have a trail covered in shit and bananas.
Important point: “Biodegradable” plastic doesn’t biodegrade in the same way as something like a banana. It disinitegrates to the point that it is invisible to humans, but it introduces microplastics into the environment.
I’ve had it and it’s not the same. I recommend you try the Raoh. It’s a true Japanese tonkotsu broth. Or as true as you can get in an instant ramen anyway.
Indomie. This stuff cooks up more like a lo mein than the normal instant ramen (noodles floating in broth), but if you want to try something different:
Barbeque Chicken is the good one (it’s like Korean BBQ)
Comes with 3 separate sauce packs, dry seasoning, and fried onion - boil the noodles, strain all the water out, mix all the packets together except the onion, then add them to the noodles. Mix the onion in right before serving (it’ll get squishy otherwise).
The Cup Noodles stir fry line has been my favorite recently. It’s not anything fancy, but I like how you don’t end up with a broth when you’re done with the noodles.
