[quote=@Kirra]I've noticed it really easy for communal places to get messy since ot is easy to carry the ideology of "not my mess, I don't have to clean it" or become lax with their own mess. It's annoying.

It's called the 'tragedy of the commons,' and it's sort of a big sticking point in communal societies to date. Until someone is personally invested in the area, nobody has any motivation to take care of it (or at least, until their threshold of "friggin' disgusting" gets crossed, which varies for everybody and satisfies only the laziest people). The answer is incentive... someone (maybe [@oOWonderKinOo]) needs to be paid fairly to keep the place in order. Pitch the idea to your boss and you just might get a raise -- and they like that kind of initiative too, so that could also open doors later, if you're into that. Worst they can do is say no. If that happens you should just file regular complaints about the conditions (with pictures, if able, and vivid descriptions of the smell) until management is forced to recognize that it's a real problem, and that you're a cost-effective solution. Then you get more money, and it's sanitary -- everybody wins!
