Don't press charges. Ignore her bill. Hope she does it again. That was easy.

Don't press charges. Pay part of her bill. And she just might.

[RoosterRedux]

Just try that at my house! I dare you!!!

P.S. The cleaning supplies are under the sink

[Uncle Chip]

But does she do windows?

I'm sure she does. That's how she got into the house.

Thanks.

My son once cleaned out the cab of my truck. He found enough money for lunch at the golden arches and swore that Elvis had been living under the passengers seat.

But wait! Just today the NY Times is telling us that boomerang kids are great for family bonding. Just don’t expect them to wake up before noon or run the vacuum.

You haven’t seen my house.

“...but police expect to charge her with felony burglary in court”.

The local JackBoots are smoking some of the ‘recreational pharmaceuticals’ they took from the street corner drug dealers.

Breaking & Entering may stick, but for a felony burgulary to occur something of substantial value had to have been taken.

Taking out the garbage doesn’t qualify as a theft, because Garbage Has NO Value.

Except in the warped world of “Da Law”.

I would be inclined to pay this bill.

[Greysard]

Well, she didn’t TAKE anything, so you can’t charge her with robbery.

If she took the trash out then that's burglary right there. (Nobody can decide for me what is trash and what isn't.) If she didn't take the trash out then the "cleaning" is not a cleaning, and she is guilty of fraud. Not that anyone would pay her bill anyway, without prior acceptance of her offer. (That's why you are not required to pay for anything unsolicited that is sent to you.)

Besides, I don't want complete strangers (with their heads clearly not screwed on correctly) to touch food items or anything in my house. Would you accept a house cleaning offer from a homeless person? If I need help in cleaning, that help will come with references, and most likely it will be sent by an established business.

Technically, she donated $75.00 in services, but the breaking and entering becomes a teensy problem...

OCD at work. ;)

Bush’s fault! ;)

[anymouse]

Not guilty! ;)

Did the washer woman look like this?

[Mark]

Now my wife wants her phone number.

[W. W. SMITH]

I want the one who cleans while topless. I will leave the door unlocked.

[Grams A]

I have been hoping someone would break in and clean my house.”

Me, too, and I have even left the door unlocked.

[Slings and Arrows]

Not a ping.

Not a good idea, either.

[Titan Magroyne]

This is the kind of crime wave I'd love to have sweeping through my neighborhood.
