They say: “no good deed goes unpunished” For years I’ve left a container full of fresh water outside my business. I’ve seen birds drinking it, I’ve seen people’s dogs walking by drinking that fresh cold water in 90° weather. Yesterday, I saw a couple walking by picked up the container and threw it in the trash. I ran after them to confront them bc it was clear it was done in bad faith. Their explanation was that they thought it was trash, I told them it was very clear that it wasn’t trash it was a container that just few minutes ago was full of water, but one of my friends dogs had drunk it. They told me to mark it as such. In the past I’ve marked the containers, I’ve had dog bowls and it still disappeared. Now I know who’s been taking it and dumped it. To me it’s very upsetting because I’m very proactive about keeping my sidewalk clean and picking up trash that customers leave behind. I’hate to see ci******es butts outside local business, it’s a lack of respect to our beautiful historical town. So, to the couple that has been taking my water containers, please think twice before you grab something that had been placed in good faith and to help a thirsty animal🐾
