At the Car Wash

I was at BJs, waiting for the Mexicans to finish shining up The Man Scorpion. There was a newspaper box there and as I approached it I noticed there was a 44+ ounce beverage container on the ground that appeared to have recently been dropped. I then noticed that there was soda (pop for you midwesterners) and ice on top of the NP box. I stand there, perplexed and this guy comes over and explains that he thought the box was level but its not. He then procedes to shake it and then walk away, leaving the cup on the ground. Not sure whats going on I go sit down and wait for my car to be cleaned.

While I was sitting there, I thought about saying something to the man. "So... you set your drink on the newspaper box there and then it fell off?  Rather than picking up and throwing away the cup you walked away and  left it for someone else? When someone noticed you then decided to defend your actions but didnt feel compelled to correct them?" I didnt say any of these things.
