“Dear PoPville,
I was walking my dog Daisy through Dupont Circle today (Tuesday, Feb 2nd) just before 11am in a failed attempt to meet Potomac Phil on this snowy Groundhog’s Day. While we were there, we saw a woman walking her adorable dog with the biggest, pointiest ears. All of a sudden, we heard a shriek, and a chorus of “DROP IT DROP IT!” Her dog got a rat.
A big one. While she was rightfully freaking out, her dog was happy as a freakin’ clam — tail wagging, head high, probably wondering why she wasn’t as proud of his catch as he was. I wanted to help. I wanted to come save her… to help extricate the rat. But the last thing we needed was two dogs playing with a dead rat. I just want to make sure this poor woman is ok. I just wanted to apologize for not helping, see if she’s ok, and quite honestly get more details on what happened next? Thanks for your help.”

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.
