Every bathroom is an autobiography with plumbing. You can learn more about a person from the back of their toilet than you can from their Facebook page. Facebook says, blessed, grateful family first. The bathroom says, this family has been in a hostage negotiation with toothpaste since Tuesday. And I am not judging. I am the guy they called because the house got honest. That is my business model. Affordable pro cleaners. We arrive after the lie gives up. People always say sorry about the mess. I love that line that is like going to the mechanic and saying sorry about the engine. That is why I am here. If your house was already perfect, I would be home arguing with a robot about why my website button is still crooked. The funny part is I walk in like I am just cleaning. No, I am doing emotional archeology. I find the layers first layer daily life. Second layer stress. Third layer company was supposed to come over but they canceled so we let the house finish the argument. I am 50 now so my knees make a business decision before I bend down. I do not squat anymore. I negotiate with the floor. I stand there like listen, we both know I need that sock. You come halfway, I will respect you. And the bathroom floor does not care. It just sits there with hair dust, a tiny cap from something nobody owns and one bobby pin that survived three presidents. I pick it up like I found a fossil. This came from the blue period when somebody changed outfits 12 times and blamed the mirror. This is where my red personality gets me in trouble. Red sees a mess and turns into a form. I do not clean gently in my head. In my head, I am running a military operation against soap scum. I walk in with a sponge like you have occupied this corner long enough. Then I remember I am still a business owner. I have to be professional. So outside I am calm. Inside I am yelling at a base board. The real joke is I clean other people's chaos. Then get in my car surrounded by water bottles, receipts, chargers and three notebooks called final plan. That is growth. I can organize your life for money but my passenger seat looks like a small office had a breakdown. That is why I like cleaning. It is honest. A dirty sink does not pretend. It does not need branding a funnel or a launch strategy. It just says, handle me. And honestly that might be the four colors lesson. Green wants a system. Yellow wants help. Blue wants a fresh start. Red wants the mess dead by noon. Me. I am all for when the invoices do. I want meaning, love, a spreadsheet and payment before I leave the driveway.\n\n[THAT WAS ALL JOKES. None of it was real.
