Digital agency's dirty kitchen gets a bad rap

It is the scourge of any office: dirty dishes left in the sink. Most try to solve the problem with a big-font reminder note filled with exclamation points. Resource Interactive, a shop in Columbus, Ohio, went in a different direction. It had agency band Dr. Cheesebarn record a music video, "Kitchen Karma," to shame/educate the slobs that lurk among them. Sample lyrics: "Get your scrubbies out and foam that soap up/You got rings to clean from that coffee cup." The children's choir is a particularly nice touch.

Hilarious take on an inevitable problem. What is next for you guys? Parking spaces?

Pretty cool! In my experience, even with all the signs and notices and reminders to clean up, people still fail to wash their dishes. This is a pretty clever way to reach out to those people and send the message across. Thanks!
