“Dear PoPville,
A couple of nights ago I was at the pharmacy in my neighborhood buying milk because of the snowcalypse that was coming :). Grabbed the milk and noticed 2 young men in the aisle, One of them put a couple of bottles in his overall, I thought he wanted to have his hands free to carry more stuff to the counter. I went around the aisle and when I was on the other side I saw the guy with the bottles leaving the store, no alarm sound or anything. The store guard usually stands between the milk/juice aisle and the entrance but he/she wasn’t there, and then I saw the guard walking and talking to the other young man in the back of the store as if they were looking for something. I assume, this guy was distracting the guard while the other one was leaving.
Due to some life experiences, I didn’t mention this to anybody. I don’t know the guys, but there’s no reason for me to put my life in potential risk just to save the cost of a couple of bottles to a pharmacy chain. I wonder what PoPville thinks about 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.
