[Dailydrool] Cleaning persons who don't like bassets

[Paula Aitken]

That reminds me of what happened to me. I had my car cleaned a couple of weeks  ago and the guy asked "how's my lab". I was dumb and I didn't get the hint and said "what lab? I have a basset." He said "well the hair looks the same." WHAAAAAAT? A lab's hair looks like a basset's? Ahhhh the insult....(joking, it probably does)
I digressed. Let me backtrack and say that my car was not that bad. Yes, it needed a clean up (that is why I was there), but I have no kids, I have no food left overs in my car EVER, and I had removed the none sense (receipts and such) already. Peach only rides on the back bench but I have a hammock for her, which was removed from the car at home, so there was only some residual hair fly-aways and sand that found its way off the hammock (and some nose art on the windows). And the guy cleans cars for a living, right? So vacuum and shut it, are you kidding me? Some people just want to make money and work as little as possible for it, that is all :/ 
PS: The car cleaning guy did not get a good tip, although that was probably his goal. 
PPS: Perhaps I should go back there with a spotless car to make him happy next time....not. 

Paula and Peach (who says she looks nothing like a lab).

> Cleaning people justifying not doing their job by complaining about your dogs is like a kid saying he couldn't do his homework because the neighbors had ice cream for dessert. There's absolutely no relation between the two. I hope you fired them!

They left our door unlocked , left the shower door off track and failed to clean the stuff they promised and when we called them on it they said our dogs stink and the house smells like the dogs......oh, I am glad that was a phone call cause I could have lost my temper.....:-)  if you think we are too picky just say so Ms. Cleaning person...don't slander my dogs.  I actually prefer the dogs over you, thank you very much! ;-)
