[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I need to hear stories of people who are really happy with their cleaners. It's making me worried I'll never have cleaners that I can trust and that clean well. [/quote]

Maybe they stole my red shorts that I can’t find and haven’t even worn yet!

I haven’t had a cleaner in ten years.  Before that we had a Brazilian woman who had triplets.   She was undocumented so back then I paid her $45 per hour under the table.  Her English was terrible but she was as honest as they come.   We were never home when she came over but one time she broke a vase or something like that.  She came back that night with her children to interpret.   She was in tears she was so upset.  I told her it was ok, it was just a cheap vase.

She had to go back to Brazil because one of her triplets needed surgery that was unaffordable in the US.   They wouldn’t let them come back to the US when the surgery was over but she had saved so much money that they bought a family farm in Brazil.

I know quite a few undocumented immigrant families and they are reliable, honest and hard working.  They have to be because no one is handing them anything.  Unlike some of the lazy Americans whose families live in public housing for generations because they are taught how to get benefits and free housing by having the first child in their teens.  Not everyone of course but American born youth are more likely to be committing crimes and be unemployed.  [/quote]
