This past weekend I performed an oil change shop. In the guidelines, it stated to watch my car being serviced and I couldn't see from the inside so I stood outside the bay to watch them work on my car. As I was watching, I noticed an older employee smoking while changing another car's oil and then throw the lit cigarette into a plastic oil drum turned trash can that was filled with those paper floor mats.
Honestly, I don't know enough about cars to know how many things under the hood are flammable but I do know that paper is flammable and if the trash can next to the cars caught on fire, it wouldn't be pretty.
Anyway, I really felt like this was something that I needed to report but there was nowhere in the report to add this, I just kind of added an aside in one of the comments section and hoped for the best. In a situation like this, should I have contacted anyone else? Did I overreact?
