Hiding from window cleaner - lighthearted!

Just a lighthearted thread for a bit of a giggle!

Does anyone else hide from the window cleaner? I am in my mid thirties and a fully functioning normal (!) adult. I am currently on mat leave so at home most of the time when they come.

Today I sat on the stairs with my daughter so they couldn't see me. I don't know why I just find it so awkward 😂😩

Does anyone else hide away or do you sit there and happily make eye contact as they squeegee your windows?

You don't hide from paying him as well do you, remember this is their livelihood and they really are more concerned with not having to return several times for payment than a glimpse of you .. naked or otherwise...

😂 fgs. get a sense of humour

My husband ran a cleaning company. Much time, energy and money was spent going back to houses for payment. He gave up doing houses and stuck to commercial, so yes my sense of humour is probably impaired by experience.
He wasn't the least bit a " nosey fucker" just wanted to get the job done and away to the next.

I shut the curtain when I hear them arrive tbh.

He knocks at mine and I give him fresh hot water for my windows. Always do him a cup of tea and a biscuit he's a nice man.

He's literally the only person who can come in the garden without the dogs going berserk so I trust their judgment.
