I just broke up with my cleaning lady
I just had to fire my cleaning lady. Or she fired me, I can't tell. She charges me $80 per visit every two weeks. Last week, she wanted to bump it to $100. What! A 25% increase? Well, I thought about it and it doesn't work for me.
I talked to her husband today to understand the situation and figure if there was a way to work it out. He kept telling me about the cost of materials and gas and stuff. But a 25% increase is too high. So I said that we should just agree to separate.
He kept telling me to do what was best for me. That he needed to do what was best for him and his family. He kept apologizing that things had to be this way.
All I wanted was to confirm that it was over. That the last time she came to clean was the last time.
Egad! It was like breaking up with someone.
