The woman who used to clean for me used to sweep around objects, not under them. As soon as I let her go, I picked up some objects, bags in my room, and whoa! My son moved his floor mat yesterday and it looked like it hadn’t been swept underneath for weeks, if not months. She was cutting corners.
She also used to put our wet dripping dirty kitchen garbage can on our foyer carpet (while cleaning the kitchen). Needless to say, I asked her twice not to do this, and even showed her where to put it. By the time she did it a third time, I was pretty exasperated.
