I’m a cleaning lady – a clear sign a restaurant isn’t scrubbing deep enough, I’ve walked out after quick judgments
A CLEANING lady has shared why she occasionally leaves restaurants mere moments after she steps into the establishment.
She explained it was because of a clear sign that a restaurant hadn’t cleaned the place well.
Allison (@allisonscleanin) shared the video with over 1.1 million TikTok followers.
The professional swore that as someone who is very conscious of cleanliness, she would never do three things.
The first, she explained, was attending a potluck: “I bring food, I will eat my own food, but I will not eat any food there,” she said.
She said her ethos resulted from what she had seen at work: “Just kind of a given as many houses I’ve gone into… you just learn not to eat food from other people’s kitchens,” she said.
Next, Allison revealed she’s walked out on restaurants after making a quick judgment on their hygiene.
“If I go into a restaurant and it’s even a little bit remotely dusty or dirty or there are marks on the windows…” she said, cringing.
“If they’re not getting the obvious stuff then obviously they’re not doing deep cleanings,” she added.
“That’s how I feel, I’ve walked out of a few restaurants just by going in and judging in and I’m out.”
Last but not least, the cleaner said that she would never enter a client’s home barefoot: “Too many things to step on, too many things to go wrong, do not go barefoot,” she said.
People who worked in the service industry agreed with her take: “As someone who worked in restaurants you are absolutely correct,” said one commenter.
“I’ve walked out of restaurants because they smell moldy, like the rags are all wet and haven’t been washed,” said another.
“If a store or restaurant has glass front doors COVERED in fingerprints, it’s a NOPE for me,” said a third.
