<![CDATA[How often sweeper sweeps the common areas?]]>Litters are often blown from neighbours’ house outside our house. Litters could be left for few days before "disappear".


So, how often sweeper sweeps the common areas of HDB? Why washing the common areas by splashing water every few weeks, sometimes still got cobwebs left around?

:rotflmao:

1 week ago, my helper complained to me, \"Mam, the corridor cleaner has changed to a new one. The cleaner last time very good, very clean, sweep everywhere. Now, the new one just moves the broom for show!\" 😆 :rotflmao:

Aiyoh my helper, in every profession there's different quality....
Did she by any chance also say the new guy not handsome? :evil:

job cleaning the corridor but come CNY, they came knocking on every door
in the block asking for angpow and they used the mop to knock on the doors which was a no-no and rude gesture especially nearing CNY.
:spank: :slapshead:

I have given up of the cleaner sweeping the corridors. They can be hardly seen. They don't really sweep the corridor, just walking past the corridor for show. I have no maid to bio too.


Well, i sweep and wash my own common corridors and yet need to pay the conservancy fee. :stompfeet:
can write to TC to complain?

In the past, the sweeper was a Bangladeshi and he sweeps the corridor everyday. Now it's a local man and he sweeps about once a week or less. Worse of all, he smokes while he sweeps. Sigh.


reminds me of a story....

a friend told me her blk's Bangladeshi cleaner was very hardworking coz always see him around cleaning the place.

Then she realise what was going on....he was 'bio-ing' her maid!! :rotflmao:She made a complaint to the TC after that!!

😂 then he must be busy bio-ing all maids at every level then! coz my neighbours also complaint about the current one not sweeping their levels.

The local one, during weekends he activate his whole family to help clean the void deck - his wife and 2 pre-school kids. :slapshead:

u mean the part of the corridor outside your apt? Think they hardly go there.


BTW, u mean your neighbours throw litter out of their front door?
I am not sure who is the one throwing litter. Often got bits of sweet wrappers, strings, ball of threads or leaves blown from don't know where to our place. 🤷

kwk9060:
according to Town Council, it should be everyday......

Really?

Last time notice the sweeper using a broom sweep the ceiling.

Now, nobody does that and spiders and insects are making their homes outside. Every few days got a few came to our house. Should I personally go sweep outside? :faint:

Maybe I should ask for a pay if so? :roll:

Litter left by inconsiderate neighbours could be there for days.


Once someone vomitted in the lift - really bad. By 8am the next day, it still wasn’t cleared. In the past, I think the cleaners start work about 6ish becos I saw them before. But now, it seems like it’s invisibles who do the job becos I no longer see cleaners around.
