I’m not used to dealing with service people so when I called you to come clean the carpet I didn’t really know what to expect. Your company doesn’t seem well known but you have a very competitive price so I thought I would try it out. After you moseyed in half an hour late without an apology, didn’t move any furniture around and complained about cat hair, I’ll give you the benefit of the doubt and say you did the best you could under the circumstances but really. All I have is a bed and a couch is it really that hard to move? I had the couch tipped up on one end to help you out, didn’t seem to make a difference. I’m not sure what you really did but the carpet is dark on one side light on the other, and the stains are still there. when I called you up to talk to you in a polite and civil way about my observances and what could be done all you did was put me down on a personal level and threaten to pour used carpet cleaning water under my door. Not only did this shake me up but it doesn’t seem very professional of you. Next time somebody calls you for cleaning tell them you don’t move furniture around at all, that they need to vacuum first and that stains are not guaranteed to come out. Maybe then they won’t be as unhappy as I am. Remember your job isn’t just cleaning carpet but dealing with people too. —L.K.

Check them out with the better business bureau. Those “competitively priced” companies are that way for a reason.
it could be worse…

sweet dog^^this is the first thing thing that popped into my head http://blog.fakeanything.com/wp-content/up…
he is a little sweetie, eh? that was some nasty looking pooh though. there’s some dog pooh out at the heavenly hiking trail that has been lying there unaltered by wind, sun, rain or slugs for a week. i can’t imagine what kind of crap that poor dog is getting fed.
with our hound a couple of good rains and it was gone, except for the corn
corn endures. it and the cockroaches will be left to duke it out.
i always check Molly’s pooh, but the puppy poohs in the forest, so i can’t.
arghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh an ant in my cheerios! and i didn’t notice till the very end!
Excellent! The invasion has begun!
Did you ever stop to think that ants in your house is not really an infestation but is actually a type of Occupy movement? We humans, representing the 1% of the earth’s known species compared to the insect world, control 99% of the sugar. The other 1% is controlled by a small but organized conglomerate of wild bee hives scattered around the globe.
If you watch and listen closely, you can see the ants playing hackey sack, banging bongos, shouting Occupy chants and generally just making a big mess/nuisance of themselves. Little hippy ant bastards! Bring in the pepper spray! (Raid)
it’s the tents that cause the most headache. they drive those little tent pegs into my cheese…..

just a shameless pump for a friend’s vid.
rent your own steamer cleaner and do it yourself. seems like you are the type that nothing would please you.
i worked that type of job years ago, and met a few like you. told most to fucking do it themselves, and left before i was even half done.
if you get fucking picky like shit, then you are on your own.
Yeah OP, how dare you ask that all of your carpet gets cleaned! Obviously paying to get your carpets cleaned is more of a form of charity for the workers because to assume that they can actually clean stains and stuff is way beyond what they’re there to do.
Sarcasm.
lol…sounds like the start of a cheesy 70’s porno:
*KNOCK KNOCK KNOCK*
“Who is it?”
“It’s the carpet cleaner, Ma’am. I’m here to clean your carpets.”
“But….I don’t HAVE any carpets.”
*Bow chicka bow wow*
