Well?

One time I left the bags full and they just didn't put new sacks in, so the next time I left the sack dripping out the cuppoard so they couldn't pretend. They then emptied the trash sometimes and sometimes not.

Am I being an rear end in a top hat or are they not supposed to take out a kitchen trash can bag?

If i were a cleaner id find ways to subtly vandalize and damage your house. Or any house. Loosening water pipes, running up the utlities, wiping my rear end with the insides of your magazines, the works.

And i'd steal. Like, I'd steal a LOT. Things you really wouldnt think of, like car titles and your identity.

Good question op, makes me wonder about a lot of similar things.

Like are you supposed to wash your hair before you get your hair cut? They're just going to wash it anyway and I don't want to take a shower

I said yes, only because they might get the wrong idea seeing the perfectly normal and legal things in my trash that are fine and normal and I don't want to have to flee the country again.

Also it's just polite, gosh!

Are you loving the maid? This parameter is needed to calculate your answer

Part time, I am a residential, enpenised maid. The answer depends entirely on the service you pay for. My clients are charged for hours worked, so I'm willing to do whatever kind of reasonable housework is requested during the time they pay for. Some people want garbage service, some want me to spend the time doing something else. As long as it's dehumanizing, I'm down.

I don't know about emptying trash cans out, but one little thing I do for my bi-weekly maid service is ensure I get my monies worth.

Throughout the 13 days between maidings, I meticulously save every ounce of feces possible I produce over 2 cm of solid length or height. I have a few casserole dishes I keep in my fridge for this purpose, and several times a day I mist down the samples to keep them just moist enough to be pliable without drying out.

Come the eve of the maid visit, I gather my feces and mix it into a creamy roux, nothing special here just the usual flour and butter gently heated and whisked together. I then leave roughly 60-70% of it in a thin film (I have a nice silicone bristle basting tool I got at Bed, Bath and Beyond for this purpose, was only 14.99 as well with a 20% off coupon through their monthly mail flier!) in obvious areas. My hardwood floors in the kitchen, the tile in the bathroom and so on. However, to really make sure they are doing what the service claims (They promise to always dust/inspect the tops of furniture like a shelf or bookcase, or ceiling fan blades, etc) I reserve the rest for said areas. Sometimes I throw them for a loop and paint a nice film over a few of my register/return vents just to really see if they are trying to track down every visible sign of filth, even down to the aroma level.

It took a few maid services but I finally found one that is batting 1.000 so far on cleaning my house! If you live in my neck of the woods I can gladly refer you, we can both get 25% off our next cleaning!
