What stories do you have about cleaning a Parking Garage ?

Here's a short story,

A company was cleaning a parking structure on a beautiful Saturday morning. The washer was using a refinery cleaner to break the bond from the oil. The smell was very strong, almost like rotten eggs. EPA was called in to investigate the smell. They approached the owner as a regular Joe, with no ID in plain clothes. He asked the owner some stupid questions from what do you call that machine that water was coming out of ? ( To throw the owner off track) to intelligent questions as filtration methods and containment. He went back to his car, put on his badge, brought his clip board and then introduced himself as a field agent for the EPA. Wrote the ticket out, the owner was fined and later claimed bankruptcy due to the large fine. :eek:

What stories do you have?
 
Well, you mean other than catching people having sex in the garage? Or the two gay guys that were fighting with each other in the garage I was cleaning? How about the time that some knucklehead was going throught the garage so fast, that he hit my hose, and snapped the end off in the hose reel, then wanted me to pay to repair his car? How about the time I had two sluts squat down to pee right in front of me while I was setting up for the nights work? Which story do you want first? (BTW, I don't have any pictures)
 
I can just hear the stories about his 'undercover operation' - boy those epa agents are sharp.

The epa 'was called in' ?

My garage story (nightmare) - I was new, I rented a surface cleaner! and a second machine. On friday evening I go to pick up the machine - doesn't work. I worked till monday morning almost straight through! Good thing I had powerful soap.

I thought you didn't like vegas? What are you doing working here then?
 
No, it wasn't Vegas. It is what we call the Freak Show, and most, but not all, happened in the same parking garage, on different occasions.
 
OK, I have another one... date 1993 ish....Girl on the phone, we was washing the sidewalk area coming towards the pay phone. I asked the young lady,( about 14 ) if she could finish her calls in 15 minutes because we was heading towards her to clean the sidewalk and phone area. She said her goodbyes about 10 minutes later and hung the phone up. As we approached the area, two big guys come out of the car that she went to. They asked if I had a problem with their sister making these calls. I said " Look it, all we need is 10 minutes and then we are done and she can go back making her drug connections." They pulled a hunting knife on one of me guys washing, I took the wand and kindly explained that I had 4500 psi with 200 temp. If the pressure doesn't get to you, the temp will. They agreed and backed off.

I swear to my God, for the first time in pressure washing, I was ready to "apply the necessary force to make my point !".
 
Were were cleaning Steak n Shake in a bad part of Orlando. Some hookers came over and sat down on the curb and were watching my son work. When some guys in the pip mobile drove by and threw firecrackers out near my son and the hookers. I stop the job and we left.
