left it when you started your trip around the kitchen. Wet the
inside of the sink. Apply cleanser lightly on the bottom of the
sink, put the cleanser back, and then use your white pad to
agitate the cleanser around the bottom and sides of the sink. Use
your toothbrush to clean the little groove around the drain or
garbage-disposal opening.
Rinse the sink thoroughly to remove the cleanser. Use your
fingers to feel the sink bottom to be sure all the cleanser is
removed. Now dry the faucet spigot and handles with a very dry
cloth so they will shine nicely. Put the Red and Blue Juice and
the duster into your carryall tray. Take the floor cleaner and
several clean Sh-Wipes (Sh-Mop covers) from your tray and put
them on the counter. Set the tray just outside the kitchen door
out of the path of the vacuuming.
The Floor
You may be instructed to sweep or vacuum the floor. If so,
vacuum into the room so the cord or exhaust is not dragging or
blowing debris. Pick up large items that may clog the vacuum—-
like dog or cat food, dried lettuce leaves, carrot slices, nylon
stockings, sleeping hamsters, etc. Pay particular attention to
corners and to the grout on tile floors. Use a broom if no vacuum
is available. (It can actually be faster, unless there are lots of dust
balls around.) Your company may skip this step, depending on
their policy. Check with your supervisor.
Grab the Sh-Mop from the doorway where you left it when you
started the kitchen.
Mopping with a Sh-Mop
Close the sink drain and run an inch or 2 of warm water into the
sink. Then add a small amount of floor cleaner into the water
depending on instructions and on how dirty the floor is. Dip a
Sh-Wipe in this solution. Wring it out but leave it almost
dripping wet, and place the cover over the Sh-Mop head. This
feels a little awkward the first time, a little less awkward the next
time and soon you won’t even think about it. Start in the corner
farthest away from the exit door and clean an area of the floor.
When the Sh-Wipe is too dry or too dirty to continue, put it into
