When you're down on your luck, things are hard enough. If you're out of work and counting every dime, you probably don't have spare cash to think of the little things, like freshening up your outfit to stand out at an interview. And if you turn up for that interview looking shabby, stood next to someone who looks like they just stepped out of a commercial, you know your chances of getting the job just went down.
That's why what this cleaning service in Portland, Oregon did is amazing. They don't charge the unemployed for cleaning if they're going to a job interview. They're giving a little helping hand to people who are trying to help themselves. The firm is called Plaza Cleaners, and they're awesome. The owner estimates that so far, they've performed this service for more than 2,000 people at a cost to the business of around $32,000, and they don't regret a thing.
