Unless it is the rubbish bin in the kitchen area, in which case cleaning the walls is part of the daily duties.

Has to be the longest complaint letter ever! Plenty of seemingly legitimate points there but I think I'd have a sort of 'executive summary' at the start, and leave it up to the recipient to refer to the detail if they wish.
I'd hit Colleagues. Again I'm breaching media policy likely, but we have dedicated bins where rubbish needs to be sorted. My company is very environmentally responsible and everything in the office reflects that.
Ps, I love my employer.

For those surfers in our midst, a Courier Mail article on the Superbank (Snapper Rocks, Rainbow Bay, Greenmount and Kirra). Sems amazing to think one could ride the same wave for a kilometre: No Cookies | The Courier-Mail

You can surf the Pororoca up the Amazon for a lot further than that. The longest ride lasted more than 40 minutes

Rod Taylor (Australian actor) dies in LA of heart attack (aged 84): No Cookies | The Courier-Mail
Those who are old enough will remember him in the The Birds (1963 ) and playing Winston Churchill in Quentin Tarantino's "Inglourious Basterds" in 2005. He appears to have been quite the ladies man in his time...

I work in an office without rubbish bins... apparently it reduces the amount of rubbish and encourages recycling.
NB - for those who take things literally there are rubbish bins, but only in the central services/kitchen area. (e.g. not on the floor or in individual's offices).

Someone stole my rubbish bin 3-4 years ago. Hahaha.
I don't make rubbish at my desk. I can use communal bins in kitchen when necessary.

The location for this was Bodega Bay on Highway 1 about 80 km N of SFO. "The Birds" and Bodega Bay. Cute little town.
It is still, all these years later, a mecca for people wanting to see where the film was made and it is the central theme of the Visitor Information Centre. Very strange how some things can etch themselves into the culture.

I worked in one of those stupid offices. No bins at the desk. Got another job. Now they're moving me into the same sort of minimalist BS workspace.
