I used to feel funny about leaving my takeout coffee cup behind if there was dying cappuccino foam in it, even with a lid on, cuz it could still leak, and he has an open weave basket for the trash. But at least it is near the clients chair. And he was always, go ahead its fine! I usually take one kleenex because my nose is always runny when i come in from outside, then i tuck it in my pocket or my waistband. Not a big cryer.
