The Unwritten Policy

When watching the kids who are still in diapers, there are times when you suspect that they have a dirty diaper -- and you know you can confirm it by sniffing the child's bottom. But you also know that if you sort of "ignore" the initial whiff (and don't do the confirming 'bottom sniff') you can pretend you didn't know the child had a dirty diaper on your shift...and it hence becomes the responsibility of the person who inherits watching said child next.

In cases like this, it's a matter of "Don't Ask, Don't Smell"
