Misleading Trash Can

Starbucks trash can

I saw this trash can at Starbucks. Trying to be a responsible citizen, I spent a few seconds to evaluate where I was supposed to put my stirrer and sugar casing only to find that all the holes led to a single trash bag! Why even bother? Unless this top was supposed to go over a specially designed trash can with built-in compartments, there is no way to keep what goes into it separate.

This was next to the sugar/napkin station at the Starbucks, so where do  you get the glass and aluminum cans anyway? Newspaper- I can understand. This is clearly in the wrong place, confusing customers like me who try to care.

I asked my collegue who had his  iPhone handy to take a picture.
