Cleaner dilemma

[Kai_63]

Hi all

We have a weekly cleaner who does an OK job. Today I came home and there was a dark large stain on our cream rug. She wears slippers so I don't know what it is. I have managed to clean it up with a lot of scrubbing but there is a faint mark. I don't mind that she made the stain but it seems odd for her not to text me and just say sorry. Should I ask her about if she knows what it is or just leave it and see if it happens again (in which case that would be the last time it happens)!

If it is odd that she hasn't texted you then maybe the dark stain is something to do with her demise. What colour is the stain? I would contact her forthwith just to check that she is ok.

Yes I called her and it turns out she is a genie who disappeared in a puff of smoke, hence the grey mark. Thanks for your helpful advice.

I can't think of any good reasons NOT to ask, if it's important to you. Either it was something she meant to clean but forgot, or it's nothing to do with her, surely? Everyone makes mistakes. Might as well give her an opportunity to amend it... unless of course you're looking for reasons to hire someone new.
