Places like that are just lucky health and safety aren’t round more often to inspect hygiene, ’cause they’d just be shut down on the spot.

What I’ll say is that wherever you are, you have the right to feel at least relatively comfortable where you work when there’s every chance of you having to deal with a lot from other people, and to feel like your manager has your back and won’t throw you under the bus. The dirtiest places tend to be the most badly managed and no-one doing that kind of work needs to put up with that when there are better, cleaner places that pay the same or better (like I say). Doesn’t have to be pristine but at least decent.

I do feel like in jobs like this, individual staff tend to look out for each-other but people still end up leaving in droves if management doesn’t have their back or they have a bit of Kim and Aggie (or just certain standards) in them and just don’t want to work in filth. It’s the staff that keep places like that going, not the higher-ups.

Well speaking for myself I wouldn't want to work at a place that looks like it hasn't been cleaned in 20 years.
