do you know any cleaning staff in a hotel who ever witnessed a suicide?

do you know, maybe a family member of yours, who's a cleaning staff in a hotel and they walked in on the aftermath of a suicide?
or whatever similar profession where that might happen.
and if you know, then i assume they told you the details about it and how it made them feel.
i would suspect traumatized...

but if ever i hypothetically hanged myself in a place like that, i would hypothetically wear a pillow sheet or hat over my face.

It's more common than you think.

I understand why people say don't traumatize staff, or train conductors, etc. but my brain doesn't care anymore. I don't plan anything like that but if I could I wouldn't care. I know it's not right

well, there's ways to make it at least less traumatizing for them, for example with the pillow sheet over the head.
so at least someone could hypothetically do that, if ever it came that far, and if there was absolutely no other way

twice. the staff was more concerned about the fact that they might be held accountable for the death of said people than of their death itself

i can kinda understand that paranoia, because sometimes innocent people do get caught up in shit like that, where it looks like they were involved.
i bet they still felt terrible about the suicide tho, but just more paranoid about getting falsely accused of a murder or something.

... so was this a cleaning staff that you know personally, or someone relatively close to you?
