23. Youll Redo The Cleaning Because The Cleaners Clearly Didnt Clean
Every cleaner whos ever worked in a bar or pub before has a wee bit of an attitude on them, and they absolutely should. Every day, they have to clean up after a load of thoughtless idiots have vomited all over what they previously cleaned up the day before. Its like being a long-suffering parent tidying a slobby teenagers room every day, grabbing filthy clothes and binning questionable handfuls of tissue. Of course, familiarity often breeds another kind of contempt. An hour before the bar opens, youll spot a few bits and pieces that the cleaners missed earlier on. That precious last hour will now be spent with a cloth and antibacterial spray, frantically running around finding the other dozen or so bits and pieces that the cleaners skimmed over.
