Who Cleans the Women's Restroom? This Part-Timer's Question Ignites a Firestorm
TL;DR — IN KOREAN VIBES

This post went viral because it touched on several sensitive topics in Korea: perceived entitlement among younger generations, gender roles in labor, and the often-debated cleanliness of public restrooms. The OP's suggestion to hire a cleaning ajumma instead of doing the work herself triggered a strong backlash.

1.

For real, women's restrooms are effing filthy. It's a prime example of women's tendency to trash things if it's not theirs.

Look at her saying 'hire a cleaning ajumma,' what a clueless kid.

Do you think someone like her will change when she gets older? She'll be the same even as an ajumma.

I wonder if the boss didn't ask *her* first (to clean the restroom).

When I was an alba, we'd play rock-paper-scissors, and the loser cleaned the women's restroom. That's when I first learned that it's not just blood on sanitary pads. And seriously, why do they stick them on the walls, wtf? Crazy bitches.

If men's restrooms are generally dirty with urine smell and splashes from urinals, women's restrooms can be 'OMG, what the f*** is this?!' level of dirty.

When I worked at a hofs (beer pub) before, we'd play rock-paper-scissors, and the loser cleaned the women's restroom. It was seriously disgusting.

It's a blessing if the sanitary pads are in the trash can. There are so many idiots who flush them down the toilet.

When I was a college student working at a small bar, I cleaned both men's and women's restrooms. Once, a woman was sleeping on the toilet. I told her friends to take her, and I was a bit scared back then, around 2017.
