Drains are lowkey fun to clean because it’s so satisfying
taylorgrace16 [OP]24 points2y ago
it really is, the bleach smell in your face isn’t the best feeling though
lowserotoninlevels4 points2y ago
lmao once because of the overwhelming bleach scent i spent 20 in the bathroom with a horrible nosebleed after i did drains
taylorgrace16 [OP]2 points2y ago
that’s awful omg, i’m sure no one rushes to have you do the drains now hahah
chumpty693 points2y ago
This is one of the major benefits of the masks. The bleach cleaner is so much more tolerable!
taylorgrace16 [OP]1 points2y ago
i hadn’t thought of that, but yes that’s so true
taylorgrace16 [OP]16 points2y ago
I spent a good 30 minutes cleaning both of the drains at work yesterday and i was so pleased with how they turned out
[deleted]15 points2y ago
You just have two drains? I’m jealous. Cleaning drains at my store takes an hour bc we have so many
Psychedelic_Doughnut4 points2y ago
We have six
taylorgrace16 [OP]1 points2y ago
we may have more but those are the only ones that are easily accessed and cleaned

I’m jealous. We have weird funnel-style drains that the clean play crew needs to dig out a screwdriver for every week, and it’s impossible to get the crevices 😞

I wish my store had these drain covers!! Ours flooded and I slipped and fell INTO the drain and twisted my ankle :-(
kanyon016 points2y ago
Sue Starbucks tbh they should always have those covers it’s a safety hazard

hey, that grate is on the wrong way!
taylorgrace16 [OP]1 points2y ago
are the grates not supposed to be under the pipes?
kqs132 points2y ago
Yeah the open part goes under the pipe!
taylorgrace16 [OP]1 points2y ago
can i ask why that is so i don’t forget to change it
astivana2 points2y ago
So that there’s nothing blocking the water from going in, I assume. Also, you’d want the grate to help prevent things from falling in the drain on the other side.
sparkytheboomman1 points2y ago
It could just be the angle! Hurts my brain a lil to look at it this way but you can kind of see how the pipes might be over the open side of the grate

Meanwhile one of our drain pipes got displaced tonight and I didn’t notice until I’d emptied an urn full of rinse water and it was all over the floor 15 minutes after we closed 🙃😭

I wish my store’s drains were this clean
AdamAce33 points2y ago
Ours are so rusted past return
softie-sub2 points2y ago
My foot has slid into the larger hole a shit ton of times now. I swear I'm gonna twist an ankle one day 😅

Dishwasher for the parts Let the bleach sit while you mop and the rinse off
taylorgrace16 [OP]2 points2y ago
exactly what i did and i also scrubbed it with a sponge that i’m claiming as just for the drains cause the shit inside was so caked on
dgvelling2 points2y ago
Ooooh also get the hot water too when clearing it out with rinsing it out. But yeah so many people I know didn’t do the dishwasher and I was like uhmmmm Why scrub when that’s an option and probably will do better than me
