• Formal cleaning of the kitchen is best left to cleaning staff.

    Keeping the kitchen area in a reasonable state, not leaving things festering in the sink etc is just basic decency and showing respect and consideration for your colleagues and your workplace.

    I dislike going into the workplace kitchen and seeing coffee and milk slopped over the side, a clogged sink and someones curry plate congealing in the gloop. I'd be up for hanging the culprits up by the ankles in the car park and inviting the cleaning staff to use them as a Piñata.
