Has anyone said anything about it yet?
They all thought it was funny. Blake said the night after I hung it up one of the driver's told him he really liked that new sign he put up and Blake was like "what sign? I didn't put that up" and the driver said "well it has your name on it!"

Fantastic!
And when someone causes a dumpster fire, you can use Bing to make another sign about making sure the butts are out!
Funny you should say that. Around a month or so before I made this thread there actually was a dumpster fire! It was most likely caused by either me or one of the delivery drivers that smoke. I really don't think it was me because I make sure I knock the cherry off and totally put it out before I put it in. But you never know there could have been just a tiny little ash that started it. It wasn't big flames shooting out or anything just a whole lot of smoke.
There is a Mexican restaurant next door and our dumpsters are right next to each other. We usually throw them in the restaurants dumpster because theirs is always open while the lid to ours is always shut and is kind of annoying to keep opening. So a third possibility could be that it was something they put in there that caused it. I guess we'll never know who/what actually caused it. Nobody got bitched at about it surprisingly so it was all good.
The dumbest thing about it was after it happened the manager said he'd order some smoke buckets...butt buckets....I don't know whatever they call those things outside of stores that has sand in them to drop cigarettes in. Anyways he tried to order one and corporate said no we didn't need one.

Just like so many other businesses they waste money on the dumbest stuff but can't spend a few bucks to prevent another dumpster fire.
