I wish my mother would fire the damn bi-monthly cleaning lady already. I know she's worked for us for 20 years, but she's half-blind and does a shit job. We have to remove toothbrushes, towels and carpets before she comes because for the latter, she almost always splashes bleach on them, and as for the toothbrushes and their holder, she switches their contents with the contents of a cup with old rusting shaving razors (that my mother insists on keeping, I don't know why), despite the fact that the thing with the tooth-brush shaped holes is obviously for the toothbrushes! I can only conclude she does it to pretend she did more than she actually did. She also never puts the shampoo, moisturizer and face washes back where they were standing, instead grouping them in all sorts of weird spaces despite always finding them in their one space.

She also leaves the shower turned on so that whoever gets in next can get a nice freezing surprise and twists the shower head out of shape. Oh, and somehow she gets the bar of soap in the shower covered in the weird kind of grit.

Dowstairs in the kitchen, she puts soap on everything and barely washes it off. I once took a packet of cheese out of the fridge to find it soapy to the touch. She regularly soaps down the tea kettle and leaves it unrinsed and if we don't catch it fast enough, someone in the family will get a nice ruined cup of tea or ramen that tastes like it's been poisoned. She rewashes all the cups whether they're clean or not and leaves them to dry upright with a half-inch of water standing in them.

AND WHAT SHE DOES TO THE FLOORS. Occasionally I have had a suspicion that she was mixing bleach and ammonia from the smell of them. Usually though what she does is mop the entire floor down and use as little water as possible. I'll come home from work on a hot day, kick off my shoes and step barefoot onto the (apparently dry, but actually) most disgusting slimy floor, ugh. When we remop it there are literal suds everywhere.

Mom won't fire her because she feels too bad to do it. I would but I can't speak her language.

*whew* Been wanting to get that off my chest for years now. First world problems of the most shallow nature, but still.

Ew. I wouldn't dare to use anything before cleaning it all again myself. Who knows what kind of questionable crap is on those dishes and judging by how thorough she is with rinsing, I wouldn't trust her to wash her hands or to change gloves between cleaning the bathroom and the kitchen.

As a cleaning lady, I apologize on behalf of my sisters for the shit job this woman is doing for your family, and would volunteer my own services if there was any likelihood we lived near each other.

Thank you. And seriously, as someone who clearly takes pride in their work, you are worth your weight in gold.

I was going to call you "poor baby" but then I read the rest of your post and ugh, that's totally understandable.

While it's not exactly the same, I feel you. My family has terrible dust allergies so we had a cleaning lady come twice a month. She broke more than she cleaned, I think. There's numerous tiles on the kitchen counter that are shattered that are her fault but she wouldn't accept blame. She broke a lot of our dishes and hid most of the rest in odd places. The worst was one time when she brought her eight or nine year old son with her and let him loose in my room, where he proceeded to open all of my limited edition still-in-box figurines and stole half my GBA games. We fired her a few months later because mom was tired of coming home to another ruined tile in the countertop and her swearing she found it that way. I still do not understand what she was doing to break them, as I am not delicate with that counter at all and have never once even chipped one.

I say this with no sarcasm whatsoever: the part about your figurines being deboxed made me literally clutch my face with horror.

Did you ever get the games back?

Past cleaner!me is upset with this lady, lazy cleaners are far to common. Hell, I got my cleaning job because the person before me was lazy and wouldn't do their job. Lazy cleaners piss me off >:(
