Places that contain a communal area like a kitchen, rest room etc; but
are within a community structure, like for instance a club or our
allotment do need a bit of organisation for 'cleaning duties'. Since
there is little of a management hierarchy to *order* people to do a
weeks cleaning and maintenance.

How might things be organised to perhaps *shame* some dodgers into
doing a turn sometimes.Â* But to try to do so without causing any
unpleasantness amongst those in the community ?

Hah! It takes all sorts to make up the human race.

One system that seems to work is a discounted membership fee where a
reduction is exchanged for managed duties.
If they don't work they pay the full fee.

Published rota? At least other members would learn who the shirkers are.

Compulsion does not always work with irascible oldies better by far for
someone to say, hey, come and give us a hand
