Does anyone else have trouble with people not changing the bag of dishwashing liquid on the 3-compartment sinks? There's only one other person besides me who will change it. It's been empty for over a week and both of us say we're not doing it this time. It's about time someone else learned how.
You better be proactive about this and go to management first, or they'll be coming to you and the other who's been doing it and dump on you. Head them off at the pass.

The person who knew it was running out should have been the one to change it. But instead of changing it, they just think to themselves, "Huh? We're running out of soap." Then they go about their business and act like they don't know it's empty.
It could be that you and the other guy are the only ones smart enough to know how to change it.
Who ever trains for the department that uses it should train everyone on how to change the soap.
Funny story:
A girl was changing the toner on a brand new copy machine in the office. We were out of toner for that machine. She grabbed the toner for the small printers
on the sales floor. She opened the canister and shoved the catridge in. She pages me to the office. The toner dust was every where
inside the machine. We wiped out what we could. A tech had to be called to clean it better. He almost cried cleaning up the mess.
He wasn't sure the machine would ever work right again...

I'm assuming your are in Deli, Bakery or Meat?
The DEPARTMENT leader/supervisor AND/OR the backup supervisor needs to be the one to make sure ALL employees in your dept know how to change the blue bag of dishwashing detergent concentrate (and the red bag of sanitizer).
Just waiting around and hoping for someone else to do it next time will not work. Someone has to take the initative and make sure the SUPERVISOR(s) is aware of this ongoing problem. If the dept head doesn't show any interest in making sure everyone knows how, you have a problem.
^I agree with this post. Changing the soap is a simple task for us, but if new hires don't know how to do it, then the dept head needs to be aware and take the initiative to show them. Sometimes little things like that get overlooked. i'm not sure if i've shown my new hire that yet either, to be honest. but if she doesn't know how, when we need it next time, i'll show her.
