Mmm Those mats look like they need some milk syrup and refresher juices/inclusions ;)
mouldyeggpatty [OP] 26 points 3y ago
FUCK, lmao. There were so many smashed dragonfruit pieces ground inside the cracks; I scrubbed the shit out of them and gave them a nice spa treatment in the mop sink.

Look at you pampering them up before they get walked all over!

But seriously good on you, at my store we gave up on the mats. It’s not as bad as you think.

🥵 spill your steamed milk and juices all over it in the span of 1 minute during a rush 🥵🥵

A regular floor cleaner’s nemesis. So heavy. Only those who do the floors regularly know the pain.

And with the masks you feel like you’ve run a marathon after moving them, sweeping, mopping, and then moving them back!
SatanicCat666 8 points 3y ago
With the masks I need a separate 10 just to recover before going back to the floor.
growinginnyc 5 points 3y ago
Absolutely. I sweated so much after floors, which my shift at the time made me do every. day. (No joke, anyone else had that issue?) And of course the clumsier partners would splatter matcha powder or spill mocha like it’s a blank canvas right after you had cleaned it 😤

Whew gotta add a NSFW tag to these. Or very safe for work? Hard to say 😂

my store doesn’t and hasn’t used these since we got a remodel last August and this served as a reminder for me to count my damn blessings, lol
mouldyeggpatty [OP] 1 points 3y ago
Did they give you guys the fancy rubberized bar floors?
beingalivesux 6 points 3y ago
sadly no! that’s what was on the blueprints for our store so my SM ditched the mats when we cleared everything out of the store for the remodel. idr what the specific reason they couldn’t do those floors for us was but he just decided fuck mats and we never ordered replacements.

Any tips or tricks on mat cleaning?
mouldyeggpatty [OP] 6 points 3y ago
1. Never use bathroom spray or liquid disinfectant. It corrodes the top layer, makes the mat dirtier, and wrecks tile grout.
2. Fill a cleaned out trash can with HOT mop water, and loosely burrito the mat into it. Let it soak for a minute, then attack with a deck brush.
3. Hose off the gunk in the mop sink with plain water, and hang the mat up on a ladder/chair/table/trash can to let it air dry. If you put it back wet, it gets mildewy and creates more gunk.
4. Get partners who do floors to not run a wet mop over the mats—this just makes them more caked and harder to clean. Just give them a sweep/shake them out and this coupled with the weekly cleaning will have em looking cute!

I've recently started bringing in my personal garden pocket hose and just blasting them with hot water out back. Effortlessly spotless every time. Never before had I been able to get every bit of syrup and fruit pieces or of every crack. Easy peasy

I just realized that my store doesn't have mats.... it's in AZ and the two WA stores I worked at did lol
JCaligirl420 1 points 3y ago
The masks make doing the floors just awful!!! I’m an SSV and it’s me and another partner that normally do them at night if she works, when she doesn’t work I almost always do them. We have 7 matts! Yes 7!!!!
