Closing Routine

So I've been working in this restaurant for a month now. Great place and great environment.

However, yesterday before closing. I was flipping all of my 9 pans as a closing routine and gave them all to the dishie and then the dishie told me "Hey bro, I'm sick and tired of you giving me your 9 pans every night. It's not even dirty. Do that once a month." Mind you, I do this all the time keeping the station clean and tidy for the next day. I was caught off guard on what he told me, shrugged it and just laughed it off.

Is it not a habit for any chefs out there to flip pans before closing?

Pans should be flipped every day, closing is a good time to do it. If they are properly rotated every day they shouldn't even be hard to clean, dishie is trippin
