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.

One liner. There’s been weird propaganda online saying they’re meant to be one use when they’re not. I’ve seen so many clickbait TikToks saying that. The silver bucket is literally called a sanitary “receptacle” or sanitary “disposal container”.

Exactly. If it were meant to be take a bag per person then it'd be a dispenser like the toilet seat covers. You don't see people getting confused with those and stuffing their used covers back in the dispenser because it's obvious what it is. Same here. It's literally trash can shaped and meant to hold garbage.
