Description

i had the pleasure of walking past a woman that works at vacancy busters on state street on my way to work recently while she replaced the balloons they keep tied to the signpost outside their office on state street.

she walked out with new balloons, to replace the day-or so-old balloons, in one hand, and scissors in the other hand, cutting the ribbons to the old balloons to let them fly off into the air.
this may seem like a small thing to some, but a) if they have balloons on their signpost constantly then this littering is an almost daily action, b) balloons are a danger to wildlife that mistake them for food when they end up in the water and c) there is a law against releasing balloons.

i challenged her when i saw this being done, and she smirked and shrugged it off as though she didn't care the slightest bit.

be a better neighbor, vacancy busters!
