Finals are done and I am bored. :p

So i live with my brother in law and sister. Brother in law was only here about 30 days total in the last 6 months due to business. Sister is here most of the time, but can work late. Thus we are getting a cleaning lady that starts monday. My room right now is mainly full of clothes which i will obviously pick up. Do cleaning ladys usally organize stuff? (yes i know this is a seinfeld type question) Just wondering what exactly they do generally speaking....

MOST housekeepers won't do that kind of crap for your laszy ass. Vacuuum, clean the toilets, dust, etc, it's up to YOU to pick up after yourself to make it easier on her. Otherwise, she won't want to return...
Of course, if you REALLY want to impress her with what kind of slob you REALLY are, leave it, and watch the expression on her face...

My housekeeper does not pick up after us. She cleans the windows, floors, bathrooms and vacuums the carpets. Since she gets paid by the hour we keep everything picked to keep her time to a minimum.

My 6 year old future step son and I played a trick on my fiance and hid all her shoes under the bed (probably like 30 pairs!). It was funny to see her wake up in the AM and not be able to find any of her shoes.

Anyway, we just had a cleaning lady start a few weeks ago, and there were still probably 10 pairs left under the bed. She took them all out and organized them onto her racks. I was impressed.

We try to keep things as tidy as possible for when she comes. I'd rather her spend time scrubbing and vaccuming than picking up our crap.
