Tears for Fears
5:04 am
Woke up on time today. Yes, I get up this early to leave at 9:30. I just like to sit with my many cups of coffee.
Tonight when I get home I’m grabbing the phone book and mail out some flyers and the list of what we clean to businesses to see if I can get any of those.
Cleaning offices is great. Well, when I used to help my mom it was. No one there, just empty offices. My mom always had a little radio with her and would sing as she cleaned.
lol the apple didn’t fall far from the tree. I always have my phone playing one of my mixes on Spotify, unless the owner is home. I won’t be rude and do that, although I know a lot of people who would.
Plus, it would let me add a third client to a day without interfering with anyone’s meals or whatever.
Wandering1 had a great idea for naming the clients by the 7 dwarfs. Client 1 would be Doc because of all the supplements and natural cures he does, 2 could be grumpy because lol oooh she can be that. 3 would be sleepy because she has a mild case of narcolepsy. 4, would stay the Alpenhorn . hmm 5. I don’t know what I would call 5. She doesn’t fit any of the dwarf names. Gotta come up with something else for her. 6, the other B&B will just be called by it’s name, The Bull and Lion. 7, the two hour girl, I’ll have to see how she acts. Only met her the one time.
Ok. that’s all the braining I can do this early in the morning lol
3:48 pm
Well, I called it. I told my friend that Client #3 (Sleepy) was going to cancel today and she did. Can’t wait to give her the contract and have her see the cancellation clause. Either she’ll drop me as a housekeeper, or change it to every other week, or whatever. Either way, it will solve the problem.
Had to do a little running around town, and now it feels like I wasted the whole afternoon. Did my food shopping so now I’m broke again. Stopped at the pharmacy so I actually have meds to take. Ugh. That means I have to fill the pill minders. Feh. I hate doing that. I don’t know why.
Went to DG to get some stuff. Place is a fucking disaster. I hate the DG in town. Every time I go there I’m tempted to drive the 20 miles to go to another one.
One thing nice though. While waiting in line at both DG and the grocery store, all of us in line and the cashiers were having a conversation. That kind of stuff just doesn’t happen anymore. It brightened my mood :)
Ooh. Time to feed the dogs already. Jeez where did the day go??
See ya!

When I was 15 years old, I did a lot of cleaning and offices man I loved being there at night. It was rare that we saw anybody like working late hours or whatever. I worked with a small crew we would split up in this one particular building sucker was hug. I had my own floors to do lol I had a walkman with my tunes going yep dug the fact that I was working alone. Cause I was bad at times stealing from the office supply areas lol or if they had a party I would grab some food sneak it away to eat it.

Down side doing a office when people/employees are around meh hated it. I still had my walkman going if it was real early in the morning I used to listen to this morning show that always had me laughing.

not too many offices in our neck of the woods. I need to look at the next county over and see what they have there. I really would like to get one or two... when everyone is gone lol like you said, it's awesome when it's at night when everyone is gone.

Wish we had a cancel clause - even a 25 dollar charge would be nice, as we're missing out on thousands of dollars a month from at-the-door cancels
I don't usually mind the customer engagements from cashiers, and it is nice to have some human interaction here, but some are just bad at it - like they'll say something about every single item instead of one or two
Makes me want to buy condoms, KY and cucumbers to see them awkwardly stumble through words... or just keep their mouths shut
But I'm a jerk who enjoys using annoying habits against people, so...
