There are times when I think that cleaning is futile task.
Don’t get me wrong - I’m not against keeping things tidy and clean. I just get astounded at how short a time things remain in that state once it has been done.
There are times when I will be sweeping or vacuuming and i will turn around to survey what I have done. There is no doubt the results are better than when I started, but to a certain extent it seems some of the dirt and dust has just been shifted around, rather than removed altogether. As I see it there are 2 explanations:
1). I am no good at cleaning. Let’s discount this due to my awesomeness. Which leaves us with…
2). There is an optimum level of cleanliness (say 90%) and any cleanliness beyond that level is ridiculously hard to maintain. This means that cleaning past that point is essentially a waste of time as before you are finished, cleanliness will be back to 90%.
This revolutionary new concept could change the way we clean. Expect to see 90% Off BAM and the Dyson 90% in stores soon.
