I use "spray-on" clothing in this hot weather.  ;)
Did a ladder job the other day and customer complained because she could see a crack through her window.  :P

Post a pic of your (delete as appropriate) 6 pack/beer gut, massive pecs/moobs, bulging biceps/flabby floppy arms and we'll vote if you should go topless.
As for the girls comment-perhaps not a bad idea. I'd hire the right lass

It's not something I've ever done in the past...... however monday and tuesday we were doing a 2 day fascia/gutter/soffit/conservatory/pressure washing job on a large country house and when the owner went out I took my shirt off for a few hours. :)

It's certainly not something I do whilst regular window cleaning though.

i picked up a commercial contract last year (communal flat windows -5-6 hours work at £230) because the previous companies workers were working with no tops on and some residents complained.

No, I want to get on with the job, and not fend of bored housewives; it's bad enough them undressing me with their eyes all the time, never mind actually being undressed.

It's not easy being this sexy.  :'(

I would sack my staff for this, we don't even wear polo shirts ! due to tattoos !

if they have tats then they will wear long sleeved dress shirts with ties in the winter ! weather there cleaning carpet or windows still to many people think that tattoos and now ok and its the norm

not if you want the little old ladies its not they still don't like them and we cover up and yes I have tattoos myself one full arm and my full back done , and guess what I cover up when working !

Long sleeve dress shirts with ties when cleaning windows, really?

I would love to see your crew out working! Would brighten up my day right up but I'd feel a bit underdressed in boots, shorts and a logo'd T-shirt.
