Evaluation of Alternative or Probable Solution

A. Evaluate each Probable Solution

1. Instead of using a drying rack and storage, replace with kitchen dish organizer to keep the dishes in
one place and avoiding extra movement.

This change simplifies things because it keeps all the dishes in one place, eliminating the need to move
them back and forth, which can waste time. Also, you won't have to wait for the dishes to dry. This
kitchen dish organizer has a smart feature – a drip pan that collects water from wet plates, making it
easier to deal with. Impressively, this efficient solution is budget-friendly at a cost of just ₱197.

This setup is especially helpful in a boarding house where space and resources are limited. Since John
Steve usually has only a few dishes to wash, this idea saves time and makes the dishwashing process
more efficient

2. Purchase a multipurpose cloth rack and place it within reach.

Currently, the kitchen cloth's storage is somewhat distant, about 3 feet away, situated above the stove.
To reduce unnecessary movement, position the multipurpose cloth rack in close proximity to the sink.
This multipurpose cloth rack only costs ₱55. This adjustment simplifies kitchen tasks and enhances
convenience for everyone using the space. The cloth rack's placement near the sink minimizes the need
for unnecessary back-and-forth trips, ultimately optimizing the kitchen's functionality.

Furthermore, it's worth noting that this cloth rack serves a dual purpose. It not only provides a
convenient spot to hang kitchen cloths but also offers storage for dishwashing detergent and sponges,
adding an extra layer of convenience and organization to the dishwashing process

3. Buy a portable trash bin to reduce distance travel when disposing trash.

The kitchen's garbage can is now inconveniently positioned outside, approximately 14 feet distant from
the kitchen. John Steve needs to make the trip twice to get rid of trash because of this system, which
takes time .A simple and effective solution is to switch to the portable trash bin which only costs ₱47.
The ease with which garbage is disposed of makes the portable trash bin convenient. There is no need
for repeated back-and-forth treks to the far-off outdoor garbage can because it can be easily relocated
and positioned within reach. This change not only saves time but also simplifies kitchen operations,
making jobs for John Steve and anybody else using the kitchen easier and more effective.
