Dear Yak,
I work in a typical modern office environment. Unfortunately, as a lot of my colleagues are incapable of cleaning up after themselves, we’ve had to implement a roster for tidying up the kitchen. Principally this involves stacking and unstacking the dishwasher once every day.
Mostly the roster seems to do the trick. But there’s a particular staff member who still refuses to cooperate. For some reason, every time it’s their turn to stack the dishwasher, it just never happens. The dirty dishes end up languishing in the sink and on the bench for the next person to deal with.
What can I do to make this lazy staff member pull their weight?
Yours sincerely,
My Kitchen Rules
Dear Your Kitchen Rules indeed,
Nice try, Margaret. But I can see through your clever little trick. And I can tell you now that going public with this issue isn’t going to make a scrap of difference. If I’ve told you once, I’ve told you a thousand times, I just can’t load the damn dishwasher with hooves! It’s hard enough just trying to hold onto a damn coffee cup!
Hope this helps.
With kind regards,
The Yak
