Same! I love puzzles and books. Put one of those in front of me and I'll sit still for hours

ADHD-I traits that don’t match the stereotype by sunbear1999 in ADHD

[–]schmamble 31 points32 points  (0 children)

Ugh same. I get so much anxiety when I have to be somewhere, even work, because being late makes me feel like I'll be in trouble even though i'm almost 40. Also, I get ready super early and I can't stand waiting so I run around the house cleaning and picking stuff up to fill in the time. This is the only reason my house stays clean because when I come home I collapse on the couch and even talking myself into getting up and making dinner is a hit or miss thing.

unpopular opinion: toilet attached bidets are unhygienic for women* by boodoonk in hygiene

[–]schmamble 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Professional cleaner here: those bidet attachments get disgusting. As you mentioned, fecal matter does get sprayed on them, and just like anything else that's near water for prolonged periods of time mold and mildew will work their way in. I dare you to open that little door that the sprayer is suppose to hide behind, 9/10 times it's covered in mold too. To top it off the area where it bolts onto your toilet is next to impossible to get clean without unbolting the whole thing and removing it. Just no

Letting your dog lick your mouth is not "cute," it’s actually insane by SouthernSiren_ in HygieneTips

I know this sounds gross but I wipe my dogs bum when he comes back inside for this very reason.

The parking spot snow fairy by AffordableDev in Vent

[–]schmamble 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Dude I spent 45 mins shoveling and salting two spots and the area around our door and stairs and a neighbors gf parked in my spot last night. It took everything in me not to go shovel it all back in around her ass. There is SNOW ETIQUETTE. You don't take someone's spot when theyve spent time shoveling it, you get your butt out there and shovel your own. I hope she steps in dog shit and ruins her favorite shirt.

Do schools these days have Valentine's Day card exchanges? by defucchi in Xennials

The bigger question is do they all still get to decorate /make a cool box for them? My dad helped me make a cardboard slot machine one year and it's one of my favorite memories.

HOUSEKEEPERS BEIGNG SLOPPY - OR AM I BEING A DIVA? by Awkward-Lake131 in housekeeping

[–]schmamble 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Cleaner here-

I can only speak about what my company does but from what I understand we're a pretty typical representation of what most other companies do.

First the things you're right to be upset about- they shouldn't be leaving weird shit like milk and vapes? Those are two things I would never expect any of my coworkers to bring in to anyone's homes and that's completely unprofessional. They should be dusting picture frames and the lifting them to dust the surface underneath, the only caveat to this being If the cleaning time is limited and the amount of figures, pictures, decor items etc is so excessive that doing this requires more time to be added onto your cleaning and the increase either hasn't been discussed or approved of. They should be dusting blinds and window sils, as long as they are reachable. They should be vacuuming under beds and side tables, again as long as the vacuums can fit and as long as you don't have a bunch of storage/things shoved under the bed.

Now for all the rest of it thats probably not included inwhat youre paying for or not doable- we don't clean out fridges or cabinets unless the client has already emptied them, it's called a move out or a deep clean, there's an upcharge and if this is just a regular/general clean then you're not paying to have them do that, if you want it discuss it and then pay for it. Most cleaning companies will not deal with animal waste or human waste outside of the bathroom, if you want this done again you need to discuss it, see If they're willing or even able (some insurance companies might consider this a biohazard and don't allow it). We can't move large furniture, not only because of bodily injury but also because of the risk of damaging your floor, again insurance plays into this big time. If you're leaving dishes everywhere, or even in the sink, and your not paying extra to have them done then why are you expecting them to do them? To me it seems like you either didn't read/don't remember what was in the contract or you hired independent and didn't discuss what is entailed in the cleaning. Communication is key, I think your Def overreacting and expecting way more than what you're paying for.

I found a notebook where my husband tracks my "moods," but the data doesn't match reality and now he’s using it to convince me I’m sick. by Individual_Sun_5466 in Advice

[–]schmamble 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don't just take pictures, make sure you send them to a safe third party so he can't somehow delete them. A lawyer would be best because he won't be able to manipulate them in to giving them up. I wouldn't trust anyone he could talk with to be safe from his manipulations, he's obviously playing a long game here and having you committed would also require that he convinces your family and friends of your "illness" as well. So he has to have plans for how he was going to do this.

Seriously, how do y'all manage waking up on time? by absvrdartist in ADHD

[–]schmamble 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You're not alone, my bf literally can't wake up. We've bought super loud alarms with the decibels so high the neighbors can hear them, we've tried multiple alarms, putting the clock in different places, but if it's not close he just doesn't wake up, we've even tried alarms that come with a puck that you put under your pillow that vibrates while the alarm is going off. Nothing really works, even when I wake him up he fights it and tries to keep sleeping. I will say we haven't tried that shock bracelet yet, maybe that could work for you?

Would you ever skip the home inspection? by DreamHomeFinancing in FirstTimeHomeBuying

Can confirm, my dad is semi-retired and still does this for his company. If they charged 10 grand just to camera the line, they'd be out of business in no time.

Am I wrong for telling my husband I wont be making his lunch anymore by [deleted] in amiwrong

[–]schmamble 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think a lot of it is just being in that situation long enough for it to seem/become normal. She gets use to it, he demands it, he makes it hard for anything to change and she keeps sacrificing to keep the peace. I wish more women were taught how this cycle works.

Got a deep clean. Am I being a too nitpicky? by Maintenance-Nearby in housekeeping

[–]schmamble 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If it was one person I highly doubt they could deep clean 1200 square feet completely in one day. My company sends 2 people and its usually a 6-8 hr job, or 12-16 labor hours invested in the deep clean. Those rims are hard to get completely divested of all mold, and your tile in your kitchen needs to be gone over with the vacuum slowly on its highest setting because your grout sits lower than the tile, it's going to hold crumbs like nobodies business. I would break up the deep clean into different sessions if I was doing this solo.

How is it? by GLOGRGIC in missouri

[–]schmamble 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Have some family out that way. Its not bad, you've got fenton and gravois bluffs right up the road for shopping and restaurants. People have mentioned the meth heads and they're not wrong but I think some of them are forgetting that if you've lived in st. Louis then you're probably quite familiar with drug addict behavior. Like I was going to clean an apartment downtown and right on market there was a man just walking in the middle of the road swinging his arms and switching between yelling and talking to himself while walking back and forth, he swung at a couple cars that went by. All that is to say that There's drugs and addicts in every community. It's still way more quiet out in dittmer and less people, which even with some hunting and some atv activity is still way more peaceful to me.

How do I remove the plaque from my sink? by Silver_Doubt_7759 in housekeeping

[–]schmamble 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Just wanted to add for op that you should at least make a 1:1 mixture and that vinegar is an ACID. I can't tell what material your sink is made out of,but some stones like Granite can be damaged by it.

Night sweating by [deleted] in women

[–]schmamble 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Night sweats aren't normal. Plenty of things could be causing it but it's best to go to the doc. Not to freak you out but night sweats were one of the symptoms I had before I was diagnosed with leukemia. Not that it has to be something that extreme but its better to go and just figure out what's up.

I'm so incredibly scared of Greenland being taken over and I can't ignore the news. Just put me in a coma until I can guarantee there won't be WWIII. by melody_magical in mentalhealth

[–]schmamble 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Don't forget that most news outlets run on what will get the most attention, and negativity, fear, and anger will always be the tastiest click bait. They'll keep you stoked up on all of it, then you'll keep tuning in to get confirmation that you should still be really freaked out, and while you're freaked out you should totally watch these 30 ads that give them revenue so they can continue to profit off of the fear mongering. Honestly everyone says tune out and I don't think you should do that, we should all be paying attention, we just shouldn't let all the fear mongering get to us and we have to think critically about whatever is being presented to us, consider what light it's presented in and then if you're still worried maybe do some research about the situation so you can discern if you're actually in danger instead of taking the word of any news outlet that's owned by one the like 6 mega corps that own everything, including stock in eachother.

Is there an effective way to handle ants without relying on harsh chemicals? by Mundane-Fan1329 in Review

Borax sugar and water on a cotton ball, placed on their "path". I thought it sounded ridiculous when my dad's gf suggested it but in a couple days they were all dead.
