“Good for the kid!”, I thought to myself with somewhat of parental pride. I always knew he would do good for himself. How cool would that be – to call your own number whenever you like it. You know what I mean: sometimes it seems like the world is conspiring against you – the car doesn’t want to start in the morning, your teenage kids are extra grumpy, or you just didn’t sleep well. And yet, you have to go to work because some appointments would not wait, or because you have customers to attend to. So how do you do it? I have been in the cleaning industry for too long to know that you cannot be at 100% every single day. I have also found some tricks to help me get by the toughest days, and I believe that can be of tremendous help to more inexperienced cleaners. A quick reminder before I launch – I am not talking about health issues. If you are under the weather, stay at home or go to the doctor, but do not try to be the brave soldier – first, you are only risking to get worse, and second – you are not doing a particularly good job when you are sick.
