Fridges are supposed to be pulled out and swept behind every day when the floors are done. This actually DOES happen in my store so we don’t have caps or anything under our fridges. We have 7 fridges in our store so it’s chore but it does get done every day.

The design/build of our stores are not helpful to keeping it clean. There’s just enough space under the bottom cabinets for things to get stuck there but NOT enough space to really get the broom under to clean it out. Sooo aggravating!!!

Right! Like I found out I can pull out one fridge and kinda just push the bulk of junk towards that way and fully be able to get the broom under there to clean it.

Still it's like I'm cleaning shit that has clearly been there for along ass time. Go figure we also have problems with fruit flies. I don't mind the work, it helps the time pass but like I just cant get over how it got this bad. They just keep telling me oh peak is crazy and their not wrong. Still it can't all be from that.

My store is a pretty high volume store, with it being the only bux in our city, and every morning peak has never resulted with more than three caps under the fridges, let alone 20-30. That's so yucky!

I'm taking pictures of it as I go along too. The way they try to play some stuff off is super funny, like I could see how they might get some people to buy into it.

Keep an eye on how bad it gets. Our store used to be disgusting but when we started scheduling deep cleans regularly it made a huge difference.

I've always loved the partners who are willing to get under cabinets and have pride in their workplace. I don't usually have the eye for detail or ability to kneel down so I'm glad someone does! It'll be very handy when you're a shift.

Man I'll clean that stuff all day I don't even care. I enjoy closing and just cleaning stuff. I just really dislike how dirty some people allow it to get overall.
