QZ: What happens when airport staff stops picking up after us, in horrifying photos
Cleaning up after other people is a thankless, invisible job, and now we know what it looks like when those cleaners get fed up: Barcelona’s El Prat Airport.
Travelers arriving to Barcelona in the past few days were greeted by astounding heaps of trash at the airport, due to a five-day cleaning staff strike.

I was there last week, and I can say that while it was a mess, it certainly wasn't 'horrifying'.
And there did seem to be an unusual amount of shredded paper - we guessed that the striking cleaners had added that for effect, as it looks terrible but would be very easy for them to tidy up afterwards!
