I worked my way through college as a custodian. Before we got backpack vacs, we had to push around a commercial upright. Backpack vacs are so much easier to use and more versatile - you can vacuum curtains, for instance, which is a LOT harder with an upright with no hose/wand.

I once worked as a custodian in a school. There is no other way to vacuum a classroom. I was going to make some observation about people who have had real (sh__y)jobs and those that haven't...but why bother.

@ Kalel,
How would you cook my tasty ham if you were wearing slippery mop-shoes?

Yes, do strap me to my housework!

Nice that I can wear it with my forward-facing baby carrier, too.

Just make shoes out of mopheads and I'll be set.

How is it that I've never seen one of these integrated into some kind of holiday/LAN/comic-con costume on the internet?

When I see the Janitors in my office building using these things, I started humming the Ghostbusters theme song.

They are commonly used by janitors. They're usually much quieter than regular vacuums.

Don't cross streams, and be careful with the curtains!

We use one similar to this at work and it is so much more efficent. It is not heavy like you would assume, either.
