Some of the moments are really impressive.
To raise money for training in a dance school in New York, Lizzie Feydelson had to get a job in a cleaning company and experience all the hardships of this profession on her own skin. The girl even collected several candid stories, which she designed in the form of essays. The confessions of the maid were so impressed that they immediately became one of the most discussed and quoted.
1. They have a bunch of promotional clothes
It would seem that the rich and famous will not stoop to even look at something where Prada or Armani labels are not worth it. But everything turned out to be not so impressive! In addition to a whole bunch of branded outfits, in the wardrobe of really wealthy people one could find many T-shirts with logos of various conferences, baseball caps of the same origin and other promotional clothing. At the same time, these things were either hung on a hanger among luxurious jackets and shirts, or lay in a heap on the shelves.
2. They’re not that clean.
Lizzie remembered that one of her clients (a very wealthy lady, by the way), gave instructions to find an expensive earring that she had dropped somewhere in the bathroom. The girl had to deal with cat hair, leftover toilet filler and clumps of hair stuck in the drain (who knows, suddenly the earring fell right there), and then washed every centimeter of the bathroom, simultaneously removing the same hair and cat hair. As a result, the decoration was found behind the toilet cistern, and it’s completely incomprehensible how it got there.
3. And do not monitor the cleanliness of clothes
The girl also admits that she was always shocked when the owners returned with purchases and could throw new clothes on the dirty floor (even before the cleaning process was over). As a result, the outfits ended up in dust, hair, sequins, and it took a lot of time to put them in order again. At the same time, unpleasant expressions poured towards Lizzie, why suddenly there were garbage or hairs on her clothes (which are not particularly cleaned out).
4. Stick to their diet
Lizzie was especially impressed by one case when, in a seemingly “impeccable” house, it turned out that the little son of the owners had to strictly adhere to a certain menu. At the same time, all the products were put into containers, on the lids of which the name of the baby and the hours of taking this or that product were signed with a marker. And as a snack (if suddenly the child rebelled and began to demand normal food), a hard-boiled egg was offered.
5. Carelessly treat documents
Another fact that surprised the representative of the cleaning company is that often clients did not even try to hide important information (documents, invoices, etc.) from the maid, mistaking it not for a stranger, but for a family member. Therefore, they recklessly left their data even on the refrigerator (having previously attached it with a magnet).
6. Peers tried to look older
Lizzie had never been particularly fond of cleaning the houses of her peers. At the same time, the owners themselves usually did not notice that they were the same age as the girl who had only come to do her job, and gave their orders (and wishes) as if they were much older and wiser.
