Your on a nice residential job and you run across a big problem with a carpet that just won't come clean and you just can't figure out why.

Who on this board would you call for advice and why?

For questions on wool Jimbo should be on the list.

I think you must have put Waldo's name accidentally on the wool list. He should be on the the list about who you would call about sheep.

In all honesty I would help anyone who called and if I didn't know the answer I would find out who did and get the info.


I've met many cleaners who were "Certified" who didn't know shit but were afraid to ask a simple question because of their "Ego".


And now after examining the questions of "Who would you let clean your carpets?" and other stupid "Ego" related questions I came to the conclusions of......


Why the hell would anyone care what list you were on?

I mean outside of our little peer groups on the internet nobody gives a shit.

All the big names in our industry who have died will only be remembered by a select few . Ask your customer's if they know Ed York or Bob Wittcamp..................


And as Mikey's head gets bigger with comments like he's the "next Ed York" I just have to smile because just what does it all mean?


After all carpet cleaners are not rocket scientists!








Oh yeah ,
