How do you know they don't?
In every office or factory I've ever been in, including government ones where we kept paper copies of tax returns (yes folks, I have worked for the Inland Revenue) there are cleaners. They seem to come in 3 kinds - middle-aged black women, African students working their way through college, and people with vaguely asiatic features who sound as if they are speaking Portuguese. (Sometimes you get a few white students working their way through college but they are more likely to get jobs in bars) If I wanted to hire spies or assassins, I'd go for the middle-aged black women. Preferably short and dumpy and shabbily dressed. Someone who looks like a granny. They can go anywhere, no-one ever stops them or asks them who they are. An invisible woman to match Chesterton's Invisible Man. Ken
