“Dear PoPville,

It has come to my attention recently that a multitude of squatters have broken into and have been living in an uninhabited house on Perry Pl, NW in between 14th and Holmead streets. For the most part, they seem to be heavy day drinkers and are all adults. One of the men seen lingering behind this building, and seems to be a squatting resident, was the victim set on fire by two assailants near Otis and 14th NW last Saturday night. Another man, potentially unrelated to the group, was picked up by EMS this morning having a grand mal seizure in the alley by the building around 6:45-7am. While my heart goes out to these men, I wonder if the crimes against them may have been interpersonal. The current owner of the home is simply listed as a trust, with a contact number that has been disconnected. My hopes, by posting this, is that the owners of this trust may see this, as it may prevent further victims, and, at the very least, inform the owners that their property has many people currently living in it.”

For many remote workers, a messy home is distracting.

You’re getting pulled into meetings, and your unread emails keep ticking up. But you can’t focus because pet hair tumbleweeds keep floating across the floor, your desk has a fine layer of dust and you keep your video off in meetings so no one sees the chaos behind you.

It’s no secret a dirty home is distracting and even adds stress to your life. And who has the energy to clean after work? That’s why it’s smart to enlist the help of professionals, like Well-Paid Maids.
