In the 1970s, NYC Dabbled in Carpeted Subway Trains

An idealized world such as that pretty much comes to a crashing end in any medium to large sized company when you experience what pigs you coworkers can be in regards to employee break rooms and even rest rooms.

From messes in share refrigerators, microwaves, or counter space, to restrooms issues that make you wonder how often the maintenance people service it each day and when. I am not sure if this is just a US thing but I used to expect better from coworkers.

I guess it's just about the virtue of integrity.

Even casual house parties attract integrity-less people who will destroy your carpet by bringing food into carpeted rooms and then trampling it over without seemingly noticing. That's why it's good for every human on the planet to have experience with cleaning various things, so they know how much work it is when they make a mess.
