Two nights ago I had to service one of my monthly accounts in a large shopping mall.
When I got there, I got a bit of a shock.
There was a Transit van parked near the mall entrance with hoses running inside where two people of dark Asian appearance were cleaning carpet.
In a store that I had previously cleaned, one time.
The waste hose from the t/m was discharging into the car park waste water drain which empties into the Coral Sea.
No signs on their van, dressed only in shorts, singlets and thongs (on their feet).
Security was notified, but they were not very concerned about it, (dinner time).
Delia went into this store yesterday afternoon and slipped off one shoe.
Carpet was still wet, slippery and smelled rank.
Got a phone call from centre management late yesterday wanting to know what I saw etc; as someone had taken a fall on the terrazzo when exiting this store.
When I arrived late afternoon most of the suds had gone down the drain, should have taken the pic as soon as I stopped my van.

When I left a bit over an hour (& a $165.00) later, this was the scene.

No wonder carpet cleaners get such a bad name.

I don't regret my past, I just regret the times I've wasted with the wrong people.
Take me as I am, or watch me as I go.
I'll retire when I can no longer do what I love, or I no longer love what I can do.
Stop moving, start dying........
