What an idiot, you'd have thought that he'd know to take his bloody shoes off! I'd complain.

He can't take his shoes off if he is lifting heavy furniture but yes, shoe covers should be used.

Surely shoe covers are slippery and dangerous.

They aren't allowed to take the heir shoes off due to health and safety reasons but they should have put sheets down or bags over their shoes. Definitely complain

Surely if you knew they had to carry it upstairs you could have put down some old towels or newspaper on the carpet as a precaution anyway? Cream carpet is bound to get grubby even if shoes aren't terribly dirty.

I'm sorry, but I don't think you have a leg to stand on if you complain.

Unfortunate but yes, they need to wear protective footwear. Imagine the heavy item falling on his foot

Plastic shoe covers or sheets etc on the stairs could be very dangerous and cause a slip.

If he was catholic he wouldn't be able to use shoe covers

I had a bed delivered and assembled a few days ago from a large store - Dreams.

I was a bit worried as obviously they had to go up stairs, the road is up, there's mud everywhere and they had to walk through some of it to get to my house.

The men took their shoes off immediately they entered the house and every time they came back into the house from collecting something from the van. Carried everything upstairs in their socks and stayed that way until they left.

It's not acceptable to just walk mud through someone's house.

Why can't a catholic use shoes covers Wideboy?

I think Wideboy was trying to be witty and compare shoe covers to condoms?

Correct, Billy.

Ah. I guessed it was meant as a joke but clearly it passed me by.

When I wrote my reply I was having a bed delivered to my house. Like PigsDofly they took their shoes off every time they came back in the house. I'd be fuming if a delivery company traipsed mud upstairs.

Either they should invest in shoe covers or a pair of indoor protective shoes.
