Hi

Had customer today follow me around the house today whilst cleaning.

How do I get rid of them. The funny thing was that we had a good chat before and everything was fine. He must of thought I was going to look through his wifes knicker draw.

Some people are just curious to see what you do, others are just plain lonely (esp old people) who enjoy the company.

I've had this conversation with my wife. She assured it me that most people are amazed at what they see when cleaning the carpet. So it is not you there interested in, just the clean lines in the carpet.

I had one wife who had a fetish about watching her carpets get cleaned.Her husband said she was strange she gets them done every six months even though they are not dirty ::)

Once had a lady follow me all over, then asked if she could have some of the dirty water in a jar so she could show her husband when he got in !

Very odd !
