Been fighting the fight of dirty mugs in the office sink. Tried to do it the right way opening a ticket for a sign to let people know that clean up after themselves and put their dirty dishes in the dishwasher. Yes, my crazy new office has a dishwasher and still have dirty dishes in the sink. We even have dish detergent and sponges to hand wash you dishes.
The first few times that it happened, I let it go. I figured they didn't know better even though the dish detergent and sponges are right there next to the sink.
One MONDAY morning, this is what I walk into. 6 dirty mugs, 2 of them didn't even make into the sink and a disgustingly dirty paper towel. So I walked back to my desk, grab my phone to take a picture and open a ticket with facilities for a sign.

| The dirty paper ended up down the drain. And yes, I had to clean it out |
Got a response back that a sign will be put up. I felt good. Then the next morning this is what I walk into.

| 9 mugs in the sink and 2 more on counter |

| mystery fluid, nice! |

Sent these pictures to facilities again. Their manager was really pissed off. He's a big guy with a loud voice. I wouldn't want to get yelled at by him.
So eventually a sign went up [took a while to go up] and that very day it went up mugs still appear in the sink after lunch.
So this is what I did. Princess Hot Flash to the rescue. I made my own sign to stating the obvious in a graphic so everyone can understand. I really don't know who they think will clean up after them. We don't have a maid or Mom on our floor!
