About the AWC Magazine - Issue 68 Download

ISSUE TEASER:

This issue of the American Window Cleaner magazine takes a trip down south to the hot and sunny beaches of Miami, Florida. Max Media Productions' Jennifer LeClaire covers the window cleaners of Miami's beaches and what it takes to clean the structures around them. Creating an antifog film for mirrors can be a tedious task but Sunshine Window Cleaning's Henry Grover Jr. is here to help.

AWC contributor Timofey F. Regan Jr. implores window cleaners to get a contract with the General Services Administration (GSA). Regan Jr. lists the benefits of doing so in addition to some statistics about the GSA. Another AWC contributor Tom Thomas writes about the importance of the internet for window cleaners. He gives information on E-mail, file transfer protocols, newsgroups, and more.

When you think of window cleaning do you think of monkeys and gorillas? A-Plus Services Inc.'s Steve Cowell does. Cowell writes a satirical and somewhat informative article on the anatomy of monkeys and gorillas and how they would make the perfect window cleaner. Tax and finance advisor Mark E. Battersby sheds light on the differences between independent contractors and employees.
