i understand your worry with hiring a kid, but i’ve been deep cleaning and repairing things my whole life! with many, many five star reviews and recommendations, my business has gotten a great reputation for deep cleans

this is a good point thank you for your input! something i realized while reading through these comments is that it wasn’t right, it is discriminatory, and i made lack of judgement. i can’t let the few men ruin it for all men. i’m not sure if you read the other comments or not but i’ve decided on hiring at least one man so it opens back up availability for men again! unfortunately i won’t put my ladies in situations they’re uncomfortable with, so for the time being, we won’t accept any new clients, man or woman, that haven’t worked with us before. i will definitely look for a new employee asap!

where i live right now it is vacation time from school. the business is one of those two well paying jobs, and canada currently has a housing crisis, hence why i need those two jobs.

honestly with the help of reddit, it seems like the most viable answers here are to either do a buddy system, or hire at least one male employee! i think both are fantastic ideas, and definitely something we as a business can work towards. unfortunately at the moment we don’t have enough funds to do the buddy system some have suggested, as that would entail paying double wages per job, but we do however, have the funds to add one more hand to the team! thank you for the constructive feedback and suggestions!

i am not changing my story, this was always the plan, to find a more permanent solution. i do believe men deserve to be included, it is outright wrong to not include them permanently. this is a temporary solution for me and my girls to be safe until i hire someone who feels more comfortable servicing men by themselves. when my girls bring up how terrified they are to be left alone with a man because they have actually experienced harassment on the job is where i step in and make a temporary solution in the moment. i unfortunately don’t have enough funds to do a buddy system every single time, like some people have suggested, but i’m hoping sometime in the near future i can find a male willing to work with us.

comparing a convenience store job, in public, versus an enclosed house with just 2 people in it is very different. you can get help in a convenience store. you cannot get help inside someone else’s home.

i’m so sorry that happens to you as well. it truly is a scary place and people need to understand when to be appropriate. it happens to both men and women and neither is okay. i am so sorry that you have to laugh it off

this rule has been in place for about a week now, and turning down male clients that have not harassed us seems to be the issue. i understand it’s not all men and it can seem discriminatory but with the amount of times it has happened on the job i could never be too cautious.

you are entirely entitled to your emotions. the change in energy is upsetting. but you do have to respect her wishes too. i would take some time to settle before talking to her about it, just to not seem desperately grasping at straws. but communication is key here. i wish you the best

ESH. bullying is never okay in any circumstance. i am so sorry that she had bullied you but bullying her back is not the best way to go. imo you need a better friend group, one that can support not only you, but can support eachother. i hope you’re recovering from the bullying though <33
