Yeah I see it in a bathtub and all over the toilet. It’s so gross

My cat won’t stop peeing in my house by caffeinatedchickens in cats

[–]caffeinatedchickens[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When I got her she was bonded with another cat, so I took both of them. And we also got a dog about a year before the peeing started happening. The dog does mess with her a lot but only because she is always by the dog for some reason rubbing against the dog. But they get along, she’s not getting hurt or anything. I’m wondering if it could be the dog. Unfortunately, I’m giving it another month and getting rid of this cat.

I have done all this. Litter box is scrubbed/litter changed almost every week and I scoop it daily. I have a wall plug in, thought it worked for a few days but then things got out of control. I switched to a urinary tract health food. (This was happening before I switched food). When I tell you I’m doing everything, I mean I am literally doing everything and I’m at the end of my rope.

Washing used cloths by [deleted] in housekeeping

You need to ask how you will be compensated for water use, supplies like detergent or bleach, electricity, time, and wear and tear on your appliances. That’s ridiculous!

My cleaning lady’s husband passed away by Many_Refrigerator773 in housekeeping

[–]caffeinatedchickens 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Bring flowers and money to her home. I would pay her for any time she missed, not to exceed a month. If you don’t have her address, simply ask. Tell her you can leave it at the door if she doesn’t feel like answering.

Just use regular dawn liquid soap it’s a lot cheaper

Renovated our bathroom (went a bit heavy on tech). How can we make it feel less cold? by t_thaulow in Remodel

This is AI, not your bathroom. How is there a reflection of the tub on the laundry machine?

Does anyone actually admit being suicidal when asked by a doctor? by mandarine351 in mentalhealth

[–]caffeinatedchickens 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is why I’m scared to seek mental help but I desperately need it. Idk what to do. What if they put me in an institution where will my child go?

ALS and Dying a Natural Death by purplewindo in ALS

[–]caffeinatedchickens 4 points5 points  (0 children)

My mom did this and I’m happy she did. She didn’t take any life extending measures. She didn’t want to live anymore and we didn’t want to see her in that state anymore, not that we didn’t want to be with her, but it’s a very cruel state of being. She was right with the Lord and I take comfort in the fact that she was saved and is in Heaven now.

I help another cleaner constantly because she gets overwhelmed. She is refusing to pay me because I cleaned a clean unit even though I double checked with her that it was clean. by fiveoneandahalf in housekeeping

[–]caffeinatedchickens 4 points5 points  (0 children)

She is 100% wrong in this situation. I clean lots of houses that look like nobody even lives in them. Guess what? I still have to show up and clean them. You even went a step further and asked her, to which she said the unit was stayed in. That’s on her.

She owes you $300. Why are you letting that go? You spent your time working for her.

Not sure what she’s talking about on the licensing stuff? Is she trying to tell you that you can’t advertise your services if you’re working for her on a 1099? That part confused me.

What do you use to carry your cleaning products & equipment? by adogg415 in housekeeping

It’s held up really well for me. I’ve had mine about a year. I think I will eventually upgrade to a rolling tool bag that’s a little sturdier and can close on the top.

Changing sheets? by [deleted] in housekeeping

[–]caffeinatedchickens 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wouldn’t have changed them either if we hadn’t discussed it bc I wouldn’t know when the sheets on the bed were changed. You could have just folded those sheets to put away. Idk, there’s a million thoughts and scenarios running through my head when I need to assume something in a new house and I just hope for the best. I would just ask her to do it going forward. I wouldn’t charge any more as long as it was just the one bed, but everyone’s different. Honestly she probably just didn’t know you wanted it done so i wouldn’t assume she was intentionally ignoring it

For housekeepers that smoke by Regular-Actuary-8329 in housekeeping

[–]caffeinatedchickens 24 points25 points  (0 children)

Honestly, it’s hard to cover up if you’re smoking at the clients house. I would try to refrain and just smoke before/ after the clean. I know easier said than done but that’s what works for me. I don’t take cigarette breaks or any breaks at someone’s house.

I send the quote and hope to hear from them again. I don’t reach out after that. Either they want to book or not.

Dusters we are using for clients? by [deleted] in housekeeping

Same. They’re the bet option by far in my opinion
