    my boss, he's a vegetarian
    and he judges me thinking i eat extremely unhealthy
    he's not a vegetarian for health reasons, but cause he doesn't want to harm animals


    but he's so freaking wasteful
    he wastes resources
    turns on all the lights in the whole building, even when people aren't in their office
    and what gets the to the rest of us is the fact that our building has LOTS of windows, therefore LOTS of sunshine
    to the point the lights are useless, but he will turn any light on that isn't on if he walks past it (he thinks it makes the office look more busy when the lights aren't off)
    he will even leave half the lights on over night
    the radio is turned on 24/7
    he WONT turn it off

    and he doesn't recycle
    he prints like hell, and throws it all in the trash, and throws all his cans and bottle in the trash
    the secretary goes around picking through his trash to get to the recycling



    i know just because your a vegetarian doesn't mean your environmentally conscious of your actions
    but usually vegetarians are, some how linked
    if you dont want to hurt animals, you usually dont want to hurt the environment either

    ^ What you're saying is right, but I don't think you're in the position to advise him. >.<

    Well if you think about it, vegatarian might be the least environmentally conscious. They only eat vegatables and greenies which help us recycle our carbon dioxide in the air.

    Lol why would anyone turn electronics on 24/7. I understand keeping the light on during the day increases productivity in work, but at night? It could he's lacking the nutrients from meat-chef lol

    Why don't you and your co-worker start a earth week and have the office try to recycle? This way you can force the boss to do the stuff without overstepping the boundaries.
