The stallion handed a few bits to the vendor and grabbed his coffee.
With an obligatory, almost mechanical, thank you to the barista, he turned and took a sip of the drink before heading off down the street.
As he walked, he passed by a few other ponies going about their own business, presumably going to work, just as he was.
Before long, the stallion was done with his coffee and was carrying the empty cup for a little while, without any sort of trashcan in sight.
He knew that he still had a few blocks to go until he arrived at work, and he really didn’t feel like carrying the cup all the way there just to throw it away properly.
So, with some trepidation, and a quick glance around to make sure no one saw him, the stallion quickly threw the cup on the sidewalk and hurried past, embarrassed to have littered.
He arrived at work a little while later and completely forgot about the entire event as he immersed himself in his job and his day went on as normal.
