Yes I am the receptionist and one of my tasks is to tidy the kitchen and stack/unstack the dishwasher. HOWEVER - I do not drink plunger coffee and I dont think I need to clean out your manky coffee dreg sludged up coffee plunger every day beacuse you cannot be bothered doing it yourself. You could even take the dregs home and throw them on the garden (if you have one) because apparently plants love coffee...
