The following was posted in the employee's coffee room here at COS: There are sponges for your use, if you make a mess. They are easy to use. Just follow these simple steps: 1. Pick one up from the sink 2. If it's wet, rinse it and wring it out 3. If it's dry, wet it with water and wring it out 4. Move sponge back and forth on the mess you made until the mess you made is gone 5. Rinse and wring out sponge and return it to the sink. In case you're not sure if you make messes because you don't know what they are, then you should be aware that a mess may be any one (or a combination) of the following: 1. Pools of any liquid (ex. coffee) in large or small quantities 2. Bagel crumbs 3. Sugar or sugar substitute grains 4. Empty cream cheese boxes and foil 5. Anything splattered or spilled (A) On the counter (B) In the microwave (C) Even on the floor 6. Anything similar to the above -- Steve smith@cos.com
