Welcome to The Dirt
Posted In : The Dirt
Welcome to The Dirt, the new blog from Eat My Dust. We will bring clarity, understanding, and a bit of humor to the world of commercial cleaning. Between new tools and techniques, misconceptions, confusing products, competitors and greenwashing[1] there is quite a bit of ground to cover.
The world of janitorial is not only quite fascinating, but utterly important. What other profession, on a day-to-day basis, has this much responsibility for your mental and physical well-being? Janitors keep order, remove pollutants, create healthy indoor environments, and maintain the condition and value of real property. Have you thought lately about how your life would change without janitors? Piled up garbage, dirty toilets, and finger print smudges would be more common than a bad day on the stock market. On the flip side, there are many practices used by our competitors that aren’t exactly creating healthy indoor environments, either. We’ll cover these as well.
In addition to this blog, you can stay in touch with us on Twitter and Facebook. Why so many places to stay in touch? This blog will allow us to communicate in-depth about any topic. Twitter is our stream of conciousness, allowing us to relay our thoughts in 140 characters or less. And Facebook allows us to share links, events and other information with fans of Eat My Dust. There will be overlap in these areas, but one of these will speak to you more then the others and we invite you to follow us in that medium.
