Guess who was sat in front of me ignoring rules
This bag (a tray of some kind takeway food) was from the kind gentleman sat in front. I was in an exit row, so it's supposed to be kept clear. Not to mention that's my foot space.
But who wants to guess what kind of passenger it was? Hint: they can't claim ignorance!
Many of you will be pleased to hear that I did in fact point it out before take off, and it was stowed. Of course, once it was eaten, it went back under the seat.

You can get some quite surprised expressions if you use your feet to move the offending item forward again, as the miscreant feels their item re-appear at their feet.

Selfish people put things under the seat behind them, in the space of the passenger behind, so they still have foot room.

Oh dear.
Still your thread has reminded us of the importance of immediately throwing into the trash anything abandoned under the seat in front. Top tip for a tidy plane! :-)
