Stephen Cleaning gutters is manual work. No wonder this old man hates doing it. “You okay up there, son?” Laura’s dad yelled up at me. I was standing on a ladder, pulling leaves and gunk out of the metal trough attached to the house. “I’m fine,” I yelled down to him. This was disgusting. What I was pulling out of these gutters made me understand why my family lived in a high-rise. Cleaning these things was bullshit. “Get the hose and squirt it out once you get the debris out,” Laura’s dad yelled. I think I threw down more junk from these gutters. How the hell did all this get in there? I squirted them out with the hose like he said. After I finished, I came down off the ladder and handed her dad the hose. He dropped it on the ground and went up the ladder to inspect my work, I gues
