We don't sit on our worktops because they're too narrow, too high and have cupboards above them. I occasionally shit on the table though.

There is a lack of serious education around hygiene.
It is a fact that even with what appears to be clean clothing they have germs and the longer they are work EG more than a few minutes people do swaet around the bottom etc and sit on ofther peoples cahirs , cars public transport.
I hated poeple sitting in my office chair as some that looked clean often went to clients homes and sat on disgusting soafs etc I just stood up.
So no it is not right to sit on work tops as they are worktops and not seats for that reason.
My wife rightly so does not even alow bags, mobiles on the w/tops

I keep a handy spray bottle of Dettol in the porch - guests are required to give themselves an all over soaking before they are allowed over the threshold.
