My complaint

I forbid you to leave your workplace while here so dirty. You must sweep the floor near the machine at the end of the shift. You also must clean up the trash. 
Additionally you'll need to write down a total number of the packages from each of spool in your repot. You must saving all lables from spools during whole shift. These lables you'll attach to technological map. 
Why doesn't he clean up?
