Comments on: Maybe I Should Clean Houses http://www.brainhandles.com/2007/01/15/maybe-i-should-clean-houses/ Whatever's tugging at my brain handles Wed, 19 Nov 2008 04:06:10 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.6.2 By: Greg Bulmash http://www.brainhandles.com/2007/01/15/maybe-i-should-clean-houses/#comment-1499 Greg Bulmash Fri, 19 Oct 2007 17:04:40 +0000 http://www.brainhandles.com/2007/01/15/maybe-i-should-clean-houses/#comment-1499 @Michele, Maybe if you took an economics class during the course of your Bachelor's degree, you would know why your post is a rant rather than a cogent argument. And maybe you'd have been able to find work that paid more and damaged your health less. You're proof that a degree is not all it takes. But in this economy and society, mere housecleaning is considered unskilled labor and unskilled labor does not command a premium. @Michele,

It is an extremely physically strenuous and dangerous job. Do you honestly think that a person could clean houses for 40 hours a week? It is physically impossible for one person to do that kind of work and not end up in the hospital. I started my own cleaning business 4 years ago... oh and I clean the houses myself... and I have a bachelors degree... yeah, a "freakin housekeeper" has a degree. Is it ok with you that I enjoy doing this service for people who appreciate it? Now, because of this business, I have bursitis in my knee, fibromyalgia of my entire back and neck, and asthma caused my spray cleaners. And I use all natural non-toxic cleaning products, no chemicals! And do you think a COMPANY, that employs housekeepers and does all the things necessary to get YOUR house clean, does not deserve to make that kind of money? Is a degree and experience only acceptable for CERTAIN kinds jobs? So, for whatever business you're in... you sound like a real freakin idiot! and a snob... people like you make this world difficult. you suck First of all, have you ever tried housekeeping?
