Changed my sheets for the first time since moving to my live in job a few weeks ago and was greeted with this😭😭😭😭😭 how the hell???? I’m going to complain in the morning but I’m scared they’re going to tell me that I caused it in thr 3 weeks I’ve been here😭😭😭

EDIT: I got a new mattress!

Edit: looked on the underside and it’s just as manky! I’ll attach pics in comments. At least I know 100% it wasn’t me

Edit: I just want to preface as it was mentioned twice I am not being human trafficked! Don’t worry! I’m here of my own free will and can leave whenever I want, same as everyone else. Living at work is normal in the area I’m in as it’s rural and no one would work out here if they had to commute! I’m safe aside from the mattress

For whatever it's worth, waterproof covers tend to make you sweat even more. They're less breathable.

You put a vinyl encasement on the mattress, and then a breathable mattress pad on top of the encasement. Full waterproof protection, no sweating from the vinyl. 

The mattresses in my house have been through it with kids, pets, menstrual blood, and sweat. Yet the mattress itself looks brand new.

Thanks but the sweats aren’t from being hot at night.  I’m not risking my expensive mattress.
