I work in Newmarket. I often walk up Alma St, alongside the Maori TV
building. It really disgusts me how they come out the side entrance,
smoke in this small street and then just throw their butts in the
gutter. Even at my worst as a smoker I would try to find somewhere
better. There are usually a huge number of butts on display. You'd think
as a principle sponsor of Quit-line that they would at least supply
their staff / performers / contractors with outside ash trays so they'd
leave the surrounds looking better.
I often have lunch in
memorial park. Recently as I walked back to work I passed the front
door to Maori TV. I noticed for the first time that they had a sign up
but pointing inwards asking people to smoke in the park opposite and not
outside their building.
I suppose we should be
grateful that there isn't a kindergarden or primary school opposite for
them to send their people to smoke in but for the first time since I gave up smoking I was regretting it as that sign so offended me that I would
have loved to have had a smoke and stubbed it out on their precious
front steps.
