You know when you just have one of those day's? Well this morning was ridiculous! The first incident was I was on the machine at work, it was a nightmare. Brief explanation of 'the machine.' It is a big green cleaning machine which lets out water onto rotating pads, cleaning the area. A rubber blade with a hose attached, scrapes the floor behind and sucks up the dirty water. That simple. We had a new one delivered this week and I was all excited about having a smooth run. Yeah right, too much to bloody ask obviously. Now what was I saying about simplicity? Here's what happened, cue bullet points if you please:
- I had to move loads of crap out of the way to even move it to the trough. (to fill it with water.)
- I put the wrong bar on and the water sucker hose wouldn't fit.
- I put the right bar on and the hose wouldn't fit! I had to call upon a colleague with a penis (previous hose experience) to help put it on.
- Went on the shop floor, forgot the blue roll to clean the bar.
- Loads of giant pallets in the way, had to keep making intricate turns all over the place.
- The bar fell off.
- The bar kept getting little bits stuck to it leaving streaks all over the floor.
- The bar fell off again.
- The machine was letting out too much water.
- The machine was not sucking up the water but instead, smearing puddles all over the floor causing hazards everywhere!
- The bar started going down too far making the smearing worse.
- Run out of time to finish job and had to come off the shop floor.
- Couldn't get the hose off.
- The cleaning pads wouldn't come off the machine.
- Left machine unclean for tomorrow.
- Expecting a telling off in the morning.
- Expecting to pop my top in the morning.
All that and it rained and made my fringe look like a moustache. One word for you people....NIGHTMARE!
Stupid Moustache Fringe! |
I'm pretty much expecting more of the same tomorrow as my boss is never in the best of moods on a Monday, and she's going to walk into my list of the million things that went wrong. I just hope I end up still employed!
All that after I left my house in such high spirits this morning too! Well as they say, tomorrow is another day so fingers crossed that the boss is in a better mood than usual, at this moment in time that is all I can hope for. Fingers crossed for me folks!
Another ridiculous day in the life of a cleaner, one good thing though, I came home and my husband had cleaned the kitchen for me so at least I didn't have to don the marigolds and get scrubbing at home! Oh he's a good'un my fella bless him. Just a nice little thing that brushes all the other crap under the carpet.
Happy Days people and I shall be back soon for another episode of Wife, Mother, Disaster Area.
