Why do some cleaners dress up like the Tango man for residential cleaning - what's the point? Or is it a health and safety law that's passed me by?

granted maybe its a bit ott for residential
I wear one a lot though when I am cleaning my shops and a bit of residential because both the pavements and roads are very busy where I work, I want to stand out to drivers and all the dizzy bints gassing away on their mobiles not looking where they are walking  :D ;D

Doesn't always work though , even with a hazard cone and a high viz the countless times someone has walked behind me and I've nearly elbowed them in the face whilst looking up and cleaning a first or second floor, you have to assume that everybody is stupid nowadays !
