Clear the table

I am not a fan of eating out. Though I am a foodie, I prefer eating in the peaceful environment of my nest. I order food and eat it in the comfort of my couch. But, I had to let go my comfort for my son who was yearning for a pizza outside. I told him I could order what he wants, but he wanted those staring gaze of people I guess. I reluctantly agreed and we were at the Domino's outlet where he ordered his pizza and I kept waiting watching people eat their pizza. It was early evening, so there were not many people in there, but there were some families like us, may be pulled in by their kids.

I sat there waiting for my pizza while watching people eat theirs and rub their fingers on a tissue before leaving the premises. Well, the basic etiquette of throwing the pizza cases in thrash was missing.

Well, I understand that it is not everywhere you can clean after eating. Cleaning the dishes after eating at a restaurant could be crazy, but throwing the pizza boxes in a bin is the least you can do.

My pizza came and after we finished gorging on the round bread topped with some delicious veggies and herbs, my sons and husband ran to wash their hands while I was cleaning the table. My elder son came back to me and told me that I didn't need to do it as no one else have. He pointed to the next table and said, see they left it there. I told him that he should not follow others, but me. I handed him over the thrash that i had cleaned and pointed my hands to the thrash can. My son obediently disposed it all there. I am hopeful that people there must have heard me and my son and learnt something from our conversation.

It actually took no time to collect those 2 pizza boxes and dispose then before washing hands, but hardly few people do it.
