I once had a job like that, cleaned up nice. Problem is, I finished the job about the same time the kids got out of school. They came in the back way and let the dog in, who promptly ran all through the house, getting his muddy paw prints all over the freshly cleaned carpets. The Lady and I were just looking in disbelief at all that hard work for nothing. Luckily, I still had the tm setup and just had to go through the house a second time.

A long time customer from 1986 who still uses us would put booties/shoes on her dogs... I'd have to clean around them.... She once got mad at me for kicking the dogs out of the house... She'd leave the front door unlocked and a/c on for the dogs... I didn't like they're dirty paw prints on freshly cleaned white carpet.... We'd clean it ever 4 months and I'd always get a $50 tip... She'd feed us and give us snacks and such... Like an aunty to me...

This is a pink carpet I clean every 6 months. Shes a dog rescurer. That dog's belly draggs on the carpet. 6 month ago as I closed my back door ready to settle up I see the dog come out the front door and into to the mulchie area. Im like great WTH and a bunch of other mermurs. Did they not hear how important it was to take precautions. Im like I better get the check quick and get outta here.

The other day I was finishing up .. I gave the old lady some booties .. with an s .. I saw the guy on his lawn chair on the grass 20 feet from the door trying to put them on. Im like wait .. you have to put them on just before stepping onto the carpet. You dont wanna track anything in. He says oh ok. I come in thru the garage thru the kitchen and saw him sitting on his steps 5 feet into the cleaned carpeted area trying to put his booties on. Im like what are you doing? Didnt you hear me say put them on before getting on the carpet? He says well I am. Im like I wanted to freak out ... then it dawned on me that I would make more money when the customers choose to be careless. So I shut the "front door" and proceed to collecting a check.

Pet owners are a little over the top sometime. I love it when they are away at the groomer while we clean.

Finally......I thought I was the only stickler for proper before and after compositions....it drives me crazy to see an awesome cleaning shot in bad light or not at the "exact angle / composition"
Think of it as if you were paying a marketing company to come take before and after pics for your website, and the before was of the front room and the after was the bedroom....there's "no comparison" .....No Impact...Great idea Mike do a webinar on before and after "lighting and composition"!

I saw this girl walking one day and told my helper she looked good in those white shorts.
He laughed and said you really are color blind, those shorts are pink.
I cant see pink very well.
