I am desperate for a cleaner. 2 full time working adults and 4 children household I also currently also have a broken arm, so you get the picture.
Local lady advertised so I said yes.
But she has already cancelled twice on me and today didn't turn up as expected. She has never done a clean for us.
So I did the standard sorry this obviously isn't going to work response when she texted this evening with an excuse for not coming. But now she is begging to come. I feel guilty as I do understand she probably needs the money. But the reality is I need reliability and I just don't trust this person now.
I don't know if I should reply to the begging text or just simply ignore now as I already replied.
Arrrr I hate the idea I am being mean to her but I am so busy and stressed with work. I just can't keep running round the house every morning tidying up after children so it's cleaner ready and then her just not come. I was actually late this morning because I was ensuring yet again no Lego on floor etc.
What is the right thing to do?
Ignore her from now on its over or reply with in depth explanation about reliability or just be a nice person and give her yet another chance??
I was googling cleaning companies when she texted with her excuse this evening, I hadn't chased her.
