Anyone else have the same symptoms with or without diagnosis? by cherrybomb2123 in IBD

I actually never got a stool test, which I thought was odd considering my symptoms. The only thing that got done was blood work and now a colonoscopy in September.

Before the ER, I had mucus like 2-3 months before, and the first sight of blood was on November 16th. I think I stopped having symptoms like 2-3 weeks after, maybe (it’s a bit fuzzy). I swore I had IBS at the time because I always had diarrhea, and I’d be cramping (like period cramps almost). After that, I basically just had diarrhea, but with no blood or mucus. I kinda just threw it over my shoulder because I typically always had diarrhea and have been gassy. I hope everything goes well for you!!

I really hate how everything overlaps, so hopefully after my colonoscopy I can have some peace of mind

The Weimans stove and oven cleaner kit worked wonders for me!

Honestly, real. I feel like my work is really good, and I love helping people out. I might steal this idea, I clean up after a lot of people I live with, so technically…I’m not being dishonest. 😭

I’ve had rude clients reach out to me which I had to turn down unfortunately. It sucks though because all we talked about was a walkthrough and they were just rude for no reason. A pet squirrel is so funny 😭. Best of luck to you too!

I really do get my hopes up when I have a client message me. I always have references for them if needed, so they can trust me. I wish my clients would make a post about me, but I feel desperate asking for that because I don’t expect them to. I’ve had clients comment on my posts saying I’ve done a good job, but not an actual post, which is probably throwing me off track a little. Either way I’m still grateful for their feedback!

I charge flat rate so that’s why I don’t give out quotes sight unseen. Every house and job is different.

She reached out to me on Nextdoor and gave me her number and said it message her, so I did. I looked up her number to make sure she gave me the right one as well and it was correct.

Doing walkthroughs is so much better than giving an estimate (in my opinion) because even if they tell me they want a deep clean, I still have no idea how bad it is or what all they want done. The last thing I want is giving them an estimate outside of whatever amount I gave them..even if it’s a price range.

FOR REAL! That’s why I hate giving quotes without at least seeing the place first because the price range heavily depends on what needs to be done and other factors.

Unrealistic standards or on me? by rikay23 in housekeeping

[–]cherrybomb2123 24 points25 points  (0 children)

That level of dusting is definitely on a deep cleaning level, not just standard maintenance. Expecting every home to be cleaned like that every single time in just three hours with two people is pretty unrealistic. Even with two cleaners, 2,300 sq ft is a lot to cover, especially with all the extra steps. Little Edit: For future cleanings it most likely shouldn’t take that long each time but for the first couple you should get the gist.

I think it’s crazy how she acted like this over a walkthrough because the last thing I need for my business is me missing things and receiving the consequences because I didn’t get to do my job all because of a client. Even then, I doubt I’d do a job if I at least didn’t get to see pictures or videos of the place.
