At Crystal Purity Commercial Cleaning Company, we’re no strangers to messes—but sometimes, our own Lincoln creates a spill worth talking about. Buckle up for a laugh-out-loud tale from his commercial cleaning adventures in Leesburg, Florida.
A Routine Day Turns Chaotic
It was a brisk Wednesday afternoon when Lincoln rolled up to the offices of Brew & Bean Co., a trendy coffee roastery that hired Crystal Purity for their commercial cleaning needs. With his mop, bucket, and signature enthusiasm, Lincoln was ready to make the place shine.
The office smelled like freshly roasted coffee beans, and employees buzzed around, clutching mugs like lifelines. Lincoln, a self-proclaimed “caffeine newbie,” admired the vibe. “This place is perky,” he muttered, setting down his gear near the break room.
That’s when he spotted it: a gleaming, high-tech coffee machine that looked like it belonged in a spaceship. Buttons blinked, steam hissed, and a little screen glowed with options. “Fancy,” Lincoln said, wiping down the counter nearby. “Bet it cleans itself.”
Just then, an employee rushed by. “Hey, cleaner guy! Could you hit the ‘espresso’ button for me? I’m swamped!” She pointed at the machine and darted off.
Lincoln froze. “Me? Operate that thing?” He glanced at the machine, then at his mop. “Well, I’m here to help…”
The Espresso Explosion
Lincoln approached the coffee machine like it was a live animal. He squinted at the buttons: Latte, Cappuccino, Espresso, Steam. “Espresso, espresso… there!” He jabbed the button triumphantly.
Nothing happened.
“Huh. Maybe it needs a warmup.” He pressed it again. Then again. Then three more times, just to be sure.
Suddenly, the machine roared to life. A jet of hot espresso shot out—not into a cup, but straight across the room, splattering the white walls like a caffeinated Jackson Pollock painting. Lincoln yelped and flailed, accidentally hitting Steam, which unleashed a cloud of scalding mist. “Abort! Abort!” he shouted, slipping on the now-slick floor.
Employees poked their heads in, jaws dropping. “What’s happening?!” one cried.
“I think I broke your spaceship!” Lincoln wailed, wrestling with the machine. In his panic, he knocked over his cleaning bucket, sending soapy water cascading across the break room. Espresso mixed with suds, creating a slippery, coffee-scented disaster zone.
Cleaning Up the Mess (Literally)
After a frantic minute, an employee dashed over and unplugged the machine. The hissing stopped, leaving Lincoln drenched, sudsy, and surrounded by curious onlookers.
“I just wanted to help,” he said, sheepish. “Guess I’m better with a mop than a mocha.”
The office manager, stifling a laugh, patted his shoulder. “You’ve got spirit, Lincoln. Let’s call this… performance art.”
Determined to redeem himself, Lincoln grabbed his supplies and got to work. He scrubbed the walls, mopped the floor, and even polished the coffee machine (carefully avoiding the buttons). By the time he finished, the break room sparkled—cleaner than ever.
As he packed up, the employee who’d started it all handed him a to-go cup. “Here’s a plain coffee. No buttons required.”
Lincoln grinned. “Thanks. I’ll stick to cleaning from now on.”
