The Cuban TikTok user kurly_la_peque02, known for sharing details of her daily life and her work in the United States, posted a video in which she recounted a regrettable experience she recently had in her house cleaning business in Kentucky.
In the video, the young Cuban said that after cleaning a house in Louisville, the client refused to pay her, claiming that the work had not been satisfactory.
According to what was reported on the account @kurly_la_peque02, the customer sent pictures showing areas that were supposedly poorly cleaned, something she claimed was not true since she is always very meticulous in her work.
However, he acknowledged that this time he did not take "before and after" photos of the cleaning, which would have served as evidence to refute the accusations.
After this bad experience, which she described as "a little traumatic," she decided to share it to advise those who work in the house cleaning business to always take photographs after finishing their work to avoid similar problems to the one she had experienced.
"Watch your back because, after all, it’s your job," he pointed out in his testimony, which has generated various reactions among users on the network. Some shared similar experiences, highlighting the importance of documenting the entire cleaning process. "I also do that work here, but if they are new clients I don't know, I don't leave without being paid"; "It happened to me too in a house, but thank God I had before and after photos and the owner paid me"; "You always have to be very careful with new clients because they are already used to doing that with several companies," they said.
Others suggested alternatives such as using contracts or requiring cash payments before finishing the work: "They should have called the police immediately, so they could verify that"; "Contracts, my dear. Every time you have a client, go in with a contract in hand"; "That's just an excuse not to pay, but God takes care of it, babe, and justice is served."
Her anecdote also provoked messages of encouragement and solidarity: "God will multiply those hours of work for you" or "All evil is repaid, blessings," can also be read among the reactions, where a discussion space was created among those who engage in this type of work in the United States, highlighting the importance of protecting oneself against possible abuses and properly documenting their work.
