Some people are simply ill-mannered or profoundly ignorant about others' feelings. A friend of mine in college never tipped waitresses or waiters. Finally, embarassed by him, I asked him whether he realized that waiters and waitresses are people with families and responsibilities of their own and that they need money from tips... My friend said that he had never thought about it. He immediately began to tip waitstaff... About my friend: He is now 63 years old and has never held a job. He failed to inherit his grandmother's money, and his wife left him years ago because he wouldn't work. He is a wonderful fellow, very good-hearted and very self-absorbed. He has "lived with" the same woman for fifteen years without asking her to marry him. She buys all their food and alcohol... Translation: Some folks have failed upbringings, parents who never worked but inherited money, and some of those people wander through life ignorant about what people need from THEM, not just money but kindness, effort.
she might not know how you feel. maybe try and clean other rooms first where theres no people...next time ask if you can only clean when others arent around. you might consider a different job, because it sounds you feel really bad doing this kind of work. some people dont care but you do.
i work as a cleaning spv and i find it amazing how many people actualy dont want to do the job there paid for
the best thing about the job start and finish you walk away a job well done no worries.
i dont have a worst thing about the i work nearly 80 hrs a week i love it.but heres a few pointers i tell my staff
rule 1. talk and get to know your client this is the most important rule .you could be doing the best job in the world evreything is spotless but see that pile of socks lying for months getting bigger n bigger she wanted them washed and the fact you never did it now its my problem and my problem is my motto
rule 2.We dont expect perfection but something close will make us a better person .
so there you go 2 simple follow them work hard and you will do well
I know-I think it's wrong! Usually ppl who have a higher education/pay/title/higher pay,or "privileged are pompous, arrogant, abusive and very condescending. The value for human life means nothing for ^^these kind of ppl, there's nothing wrong with your job,it is honorable,they're the problem,not you.
You are a woman that works very hard for her money. When these types of women hire you, some do it because they just do not have the time and some do it as an ego boost.
The ones that do it as a ego boost are the ones that are petty enough to have you do even more, by moving their shoes for them. They want to see a reaction.. maybe they are not doing it on purpose but yes, they want that reaction or they are just simpletons that have no real empathy.
What I recommend you do is - continue to do your very best. Do it with a smile, and be genuinely happy to do it for them. Why? Because you are just that good at your job, and this is how you end up getting hired by more and more people.
The one standing on your hand... this is just flat out rude and ignorant of her. But at the same time, do your best to watch out for this type of behavior and avoid it if at all possible.
They want to stir things up, they want to get a rise from you - so maintain and only give them smiles.
Maybe they will stop being jerks. But in the end, all that really matters is that you are paid in full and they hopefully recommend you to friends.
Hey cristianoo3344
Like you I'm a house cleaner and I've met lots of different types of clients. I work for myself so I don't have to go back to any of the clients who don't treat me with respect. They are creeps and they are everywhere, I just move onto the next client. And I have some great people that I like and they give me tips and aren't at all snobby. I think there are a LOT of great people in the world, we just gotta find them. And I never, ever scrub the floor on my hands and knees, EVER :)
Most women i know are catty....not good with other females...im guessing they feel a sense of entitlement...kind of like while youre there they own you because they are paying you....i worked as a cna and got told once in a retirement center by a woman that it was my job to change her and thats what i get paid to do....which angerd me because i get paid to help those who cant do for themselves and it was my job to help that lady with things she couldnt do herself and using the bathroom wssnt one of them....point is people will try to take advantage and get a superiority complex and sense of entitlement...dont let it get to you and dont let it get you down
Hold your head high. Jesus cleaned feet. All people are created equal and what you do on this earth determines the outcome of the next . Money is of the devil. Being a good honest loving person is a honourable thing a lot of people cannot achieve.To hell with these snobby materialistic merchants they will be sorry!
