One bad place to install carpeting is a kitchen. As a carpet cleaner I do not see this much but it is out there. Usually people install it in a kitchen because they want to prevent slipping or they like the warmth of carpet over tile. Even if you choose a commercial carpet it will never last long in a kitchen though. Kitchens are just subject to too much moisture, grease and food spills. So do not even think about installing carpet in a kitchen.
Another bad place for carpet is a bathroom. You normally see this in new homes where the builder has found it cheaper to just put carpet in the baths instead of tile or vinyl. Like kitchens, baths are subject to way too much moisture. Also most bathroom cleaners will bleach a carpet meaning that you have to be very careful when cleaning your bathroom. Carpet in baths never lasts long and should also be avoided.
The last place I will discuss is carpet on stairs. Unfortunately this might be a necessary evil. Carpet makes stairs safer by preventing the chance of slipping and is much cheaper than installing hard surfaces on them. Wood for example is very expensive to install on stairs because of all the necessary trim pieces. Carpet will have a short life on stairs because of the concentrated foot traffic causing wear. To improve its life vacuum it often and have it professionally cleaned often.
Overall carpet is a great flooring choice but you must remember to use it where it is appropriate.
The Worst Places To Live
Yes, we all know that McDonald's food is not actually that healthy for you. We know that the Big Macs have around 700 calories and that a large fry has around 700 calories also. This is not what I'm talking about though. One might think that it is all that I'm talking about but that is not the case.
The truth is, the service and everything done at McDonald's is terrible. Many times you go in to a McDonald's and see a lady wipe her hair back out of her face. Then she walks over and touches your drink cup plus the french fry scoop. All those germs and whatever else was in her hair is now on your cup glass and french fries. If you ask me, that is not a place that I would want to eat at.
Another moment we had at McDonald's was when we asked for an ice coffee. This is when you know that the people working there have no clue what is going on. We drive up to the window and get a cup of coffee with ice in it! I cannot believe it at all. We told the worker that the ice coffee usually doesn't look like just coffee with ice in it and then she told me, "Well, this is the same ice coffee we give to everyone."
The only good thing that I found out was that the MacDonald's workers are willing to give you free barbecue sauce and hot mustard. Some people think it's weird that I eat my quarter pounder with cheese with hot mustard or barbecue sauce. That is beside the point though. Usually you have to pay extra for your hot mustard and barbecue sauce now. I am not sure why, considering that McDonald's doesn't make that much more off of putting an extra $.25 per sauce. The workers do not even abide by these rules anyways, thank goodness.
Well, we all know that McDonald's is one of the most unhealthy places to eat and people continue to eat their and become obese. I know many of us have watched the movie showing how bad McDonald's is really for you even though people continue not to believe it. Too many places do not make their workers use the proper utensils and gloves with the food. I do not want to know how many little spiders and hair that I have ate in the past years.
