1) Why does this guy in the parking lot outside my office have to hose down his entire lot once a day? Is he bored? Does he think it looks cleaner? I understand taking pride in your workplace, but you don't need to spend half an hour hosing down the big concrete lot EVERY DAY. For some reason it's been irritating me all day, to the point where I want to steal his hose and replace it with a broom. Or at least get him a spray nozzle.
2) If said shortage is as bad as they are forecasting, why on earth are there people all over the city spray washing the sidewalks? Two days ago there was a guy spraying the same sidewalk displayed in the picture above. Yesterday on Vine Street I passed another guy who was spray washing, this one taking at least 20 to 30 seconds to spray off the white sign painted above the drain (the one that says "give a hoot, don't pollute...the ocean" or something like that). Then on the way home I saw another guy spraying outside a part of Santa Monica Blvd that no one really walks on.
I should speak with someone at the city. Because really, no matter how much you clean the sidewalk, it's not going to look pretty.
Unless you're in Beverly Hills. Those things are spotless!
