This is the world we live in

I'm presently sitting at my desk at the telco I work for. I just overheard a colleague getting screamed at by a customer for telling her why the techs refused to enter her home. Copypasted house comments:

NO MORE TC'S [trouble calls] FOR THIS ADDRESS - TECHS REFUSE LOB ENTRY AS HOME IS HAZARDOUS - STRONG SMELL, VISIBLE LIQUID STAINS AND FECES.

I thought the Romans introduced a system to combat this a few millennia ago...

    Some people are old fashioned like that, too bad there aren't any wooly mammoths to stomp on them anymore.

    The sub said it's her cats. Still though, how do you live in such filth that those not acclimatized fear for their health by merely stepping inside?!? These are rough-and-tumble men and women who come home from work covered in sweat, grease and oils. They're by no means germaphobes by nature of their work alone, and they still couldn't bear it.

    Then if she can't manage her own dogs, she should either send them to training school, train them herself, or get rid of them. At the very least if she knows somone is coming, she could clean up the crap off the floor and spray some Fbreeze.

    Dealing with crap is like the prime duty of owning a pet and customer service.

    ZING!

    Crazy cat ladies can't help it. The toxoplasmosis makes them that way. Seriously, it's not a joke. It's real.

    I remember my wife being concerned about this when she was pregnant. I ended up having to change the litter box the whole time she was pregnant.

    Which is exactly why our techs refuse to enter her home. I wouldn't want to catch that shit.

    Yeah, Toxoplasma gondii is interesting stuff. Parasites will rule us all some day.
