Honestly I’d love to have some logical, economic, or entertaining argument to debate you but I don’t have one - you’re right.
Problem is, we need to make 24/7 coverage of this task and honestly some people are just minging - we’ve come in to coffee pots with mould on the surface, and as much as I’m willing to become one with nature, that ain’t tickling my fancy.
We are however lucky enough to have an indie coffee shop in our local town so at least our pennies are going to a decent pocket, and in fairness the owner is a lovely bloke so I’m quite happy to plan my mortgage payments around him.
There’s a very simple solution to this problem, but you may not like it. Tell everyone the coffee pot needs to be washed every day and put up a sheet assigning the task to people. When that person washes the pot, they sign the sheet. If you have a camera in the break room, it’s even more effective.
Then you can see on the sheet who was supposed to wash the pot but didn’t (or did it poorly). It will not work with people who say it’s “not their job”, but at least the problem is clearly visible.

Point taken though, I appreciate it 😁
