For crying out loud, the CNAs at my work are driving me insane. They're throwing away perfectly good washcloths after a single use. Like, what even is that? They're supposed to rinse them out and toss them in the dirty laundry bin, but no, they'd rather just chuck them in the trash. And then they have the nerve to come to me, wondering why there aren't any clean washcloths on the shelves.

I've been busting my b### to keep them stocked, staying late to wash and dry new ones, digging through the dirty laundry to find usable ones. But no matter how many I put out, they just disappear. And then they have the audacity to ask me why there aren't any available. Um, maybe it's because you're throwing them away like they're paper towels?

I finally had enough and decided to stop going out of my way to make sure they have clean washcloths. I did my usual routine, washing personal items, but I didn't bother with the washcloths. And guess what? They still came to me, asking where they were. I told them straight up - if you're going to throw them away, I'm not going to waste my time making sure you have a steady supply.

I'm hoping that if I just stop, they'll learn to rinse them out and not be so careless with our resources. But honestly, I doubt it'll make a difference. I'm going to talk to the head nurse about it, but I'm not holding my breath. It's just another example of how some people don't think about the bigger picture or the impact of their actions.
