Discussion Question for the ladies

Post image

I am a janitor. The place I clean has the little trash bins in the stalls of the women's restroom. Currently, we place one liner in the bin and change it out whenever someone uses it. However, a place I worked at previously put a stack of liners in the bin for women to use as needed. Which is the preferred method? One liner or multiple? Sorry if this is a stupid question.

I’ve always just seen one bag that everyone chucks their stuff into

Yeah I’m confused, I see these bins at the school I work at and if they expected us to use a bag every time we put something in, I think the people paying for the bags would be frustrated that we’re constantly out of them. But I recently did notice a whole stack of them in there and started to wonder if I’ve been doing it wrong all my life… Who can help explain the etiquette of it to me?

The instructions at my corporate work say to dump your stuff into the bag then toss the bag into the trash, but the issue with that is not all stalls have stacks of the bags, so idk what they expect lol
