Roombas Gone Wild

These little self-propelled vacuuming dynamos don't just devour dust. They can wreak havoc on a household.

Who knew that Roombas were herbivores?

There I was presenting a Webinar while simultaneously vacuuming a spare room, feeling good about my work/life balance.

Following the Webinar – as any good housekeeper would do – I went to collect my self-propelled vacuum cleaner.

To my surprise, the Roomba was nowhere to be found. There was, however, an overturned plant that seemed to have deliberately flung itself from its stand onto my new cork floors – soil down, of course.

After a little investigative work, I found the culprit: a very bad Roomba covered in dirt, leaves and a ceramic pot.

My own Little Shop of Horrors.

Note to Roomba users: keep long dangly plants away from robots.
