I hear this a lot.. So who do these folks clean the TT?
Like computer screens too. LEAVE THEM ALONE!!
At work I hate getting the screen wiped off to find the rainbow swirls covering the screen. Yikes!! hands off!! But do they clean the keyboard? NEVER!!!! scummy and all the keys covered with thick yuck.
I have to clean THAT myself.
Follow Ups:
Heck, they never clean it ANYWHERE I've ever sat behind a keyboard...EVER!I agree with you, WHY do they clean it IF you told your cleaning lady "This "instrument" coasts 5ooo bucks...do NOT clean it, do not touch it. If you do and something gets broken I will want paid for it!" You may wish to assuage her/his feelings by telling them they're a good maid and that other friend's maids have damaged their 'tables, but tell them firmly, DO NOT TOUCH THIS OR ELSE!
Of couse, if they say, "No habla Ingles" you may be in trouble! Sign language works, too!
Nice to see you here again, Elizabeth!

If I had more money I'd soon be broke...but I'd have more LPs!
"Of couse, if they say, "No habla Ingles" you may be in trouble!"There's an easy solution to that; type your request into a word document and have Yahoo translate it for you. Then you just hand them you're written request.
I do this when I need to communicate with the Portugese cleaning crew that arrives every night at my office. I start by apologizing for being a monolinguist then hand them my written request. They think it quite funny when I do this; but they've always honored my requests.
Of couse, if they say, "No habla Ingles" you may be in trouble!"No limpies (lim-pee-YAYSE) el tocadiscos." ("Don't clean the turntable.")
"Si lo rompes, lo compras." ("If you break it, you buy it.")
