We all do it, use our desk space as a second home. Who can blame us as we spend a lot of time at work!
This however does not help the fact that there is at least ten items we touch daily at work that are completely germ ridden.
A horrible thought that something you have literally on your head for hours is harbouring germs. Not to mention the microphone you speak into being so close to your mouth.
The office telephone, the one thing everyone would prefer to avoid, but that's not normally down to the germs.
Yes, that thing you work at every day, put your drink or food on and sometimes even eat at. It would give you nightmares to know how many germs you could be eating alongside your sandwiches.
One of the most obvious, the keyboard, the items you actually cannot avoid touching. Even if it is only you using it, you don't know what was on your hands from locking your car to opening several doors on your way into work.
The mouse, another item you can't not touch throughout the day not knowing who has also used it, and what germs they have bought in...
An item everyone in the office uses but does everyone wash their hands properly?
At this point can you even trust the people you work with? According to the Daily Mail, the water cooler is one of the biggest bacteria collecting items in the office with 2.7million germs per square inch on the average water spigot (the bit the water comes out of).
Not the office fridge! I keep my food in there, but so does everybody else. Remember that when opening the door you use the handle, which can harbour the germs.
Yes the microwave too. The thing you use to heat up your meal and eat. No wonder office colds spread so quickly.
An innocent looking soap dispenser, the very thing you hoped would help you to clean your hands. This is an item that everyone also touches to wash their hands after using the bathroom.
