A newly bound scavenger can feel ashamed and disgusted at first, urgently ducking from the judgmental glares of onlookers. This soon dissipates though, and the diver grows to understand that diving is not a bad thing. When the diver begins to understand, they also begin to care less of what others think and can enjoy their newfound lifestyle. Most divers realize the importance of restriction with items, even though some divers cannot resist the urge to take anything they can get. The most important lesson gained from Eighner’s essay was not only the means on how to survive if one is ever in this situation, but the amount of perfectly good stuff that has been carelessly thrown away. Eighner perpetually points out a very good point; we are, in fact, very wasteful beings. To us, everything is replaceable. We do not value the things we have to their full potential; and so when it eventually ends up in the trash, buried under broken eggs and spilled coffee grinds, it becomes a treasure to someone eager enough to appreciate
