I had to clean my cup, FML!

many places do not have open access to sinks or have it only in bathrooms were they are designed to be hard to use this way.

Please excuse my language but I fucking despise most bathroom sinks. What genius decided to make a super short tap that only extends 4cm from the back wall of the sink. What kind of child must you be to actually wash your hands in sinks like this? Most people are older than 4 and thus have larger hands.

It's nearly impossible for me to wash my hands in most bathroom sinks without punching the sink itself on accident just trying to get my hands in the water stream. I usually have to rinse one hand at a time, sideways just to have the tiniest amount of room

IMO these are because of moron designers who picked the wrong size tap for those kinds of sink.

In a different universe I'd sell stickers for people to buy and stick near any sink like this that's been misdesigned, something like "Warning, the interior designer designing this bathroom was a moron, and choose an inappropriately-sized tap for this sink".

Punching the sink on accident sounds very painful. If it's a recurring accident then you might want to look into improving your hand eye coordination. Try searching on the internet for "improving hand eye coordination", there is a wealth of material.

Best of luck, I hope your hands heal quickly.

Punching was an exaggeration, but the force can vary from a touch to smacking my knuckles against the back depending on how much of a hurry I'm in.

Hand eye coordination doesn't improve the amount of room between the water stream and the sink, but as your comment appears to be in bad faith I'm sure you already know that.

Perhaps your hands are 4cm long so they fit just fine?

For most people i see at work with their mugs that amounts to either 5 seconds in the sink, or no time at all since they will just slosh the new coffee into the dirty cup.

Can confirm. My coffee mugs get washed once every “ok that’s really gross”. I mean, it always holds the same piping hot liquid and only one person ever drinks out of it. So what’s the point of keeping the mug pristinely clean?
