Counter-Surfing Shutdown

Counter-surfing is usually a systems problem. Access, smell history, and sloppy kitchen habits keep the behavior alive.

What matters most

  • Management prevents more self-reward.
  • Train away from active cooking first.
  • Pay for floor choice or station behavior early.

Working sequence

  1. Clean counters to reduce residual payoff.
  2. Install one stable station near the kitchen.
  3. Practice during low-pressure meal prep before peak chaos.
