Drop warning signs where you mop. People get pissed when you don't. You don't have enough to cover every area you clean and between lag and everyone running everywhere they're usually not spotted until people are already on their backs, but they can't blame you for doing the best you can with the tools you have!

People assume if anyone slips, it was your doing, this may or may not be true. Often it was the god damn [[chemist]] with space lube, or a [[clown]] with a bucket of water. Intelligent crew know the difference between slipping on a wet floor and slipping on a lubed floor though.

Make sure the [[detective]] has cleared a scene before you clean up an area of some blood. Follow people dragging dead bodies to medbay, they leave massive trails of blood when they drag a body which means more work for you.

Don't be that asshole who finds the need to clean during a stationwide emergency, slipping people over who are in a hurry to get critical people to medbay or escape a loose [[singularity]]. Clean floors stop mattering when the shuttle is arriving in six minutes and half the station is destroyed.

People are going to accidentally charge your cart halfway down the hallway. Nice people will get on the other side of it and push it back to you. There's no avoiding this, apart from not using the cart and relying on the spray bottle, or using the mop with buckets of water held on your person. This would require you to carry signs too.

Your mop bucket holds 100 units of liquid. This does not need to be straight water. If you're able to get Chemistry to give you 50 units of ammonia and mix it with 50 units of water, congratulations!
