How often do you clean your mobile phone?

One of my staff was let go today and she had to turn her work phone in, it's maybe 6 months old and was the most disgusting thing I've seen in a long while. This woman is a Nurse and her phone and it's case were covered in body oil, makeup and what I can only guess is food? I put on some latex gloves and removed the case and threw it out then wiped the phone down with alcohol wipes before turning it in to IT. I clean my screen at least once a day and take off the case and clean it too at least once a week with hot, soapy water and a brush. I do this with both my personal and work phones. How can people live with disgusting filth like this, specially a Nurse ffs??? 😖

Why don't you ask her? And I don't keep mine in a case, so cleanliness is not an issue.

@RedBaron Unlikely to see her again and the question was mostly rhetorical. We hand out a case with the phone when they are assigned, phones are an expensive asset.

@spjennifer FWIW, I have found that a case doesn’t make a difference. My iPhone 13 stays clean and hasn’t been damaged even with occasional drops on the wood floor of my apartment.
