            Definition
            The  Duster's  job  is  to  start  cleaning  the  house  except  for  the
            kitchen and bathroom. This work is drier than the work in the
            kitchen  and  bathroom:  less  spraying  and  wiping.  There  are
            several  rooms  involved,  but  they  go  faster,  and  there  are  no
            floors  to  wash—except  wiping  up  an  occasional  drip  of
            something. If you're going to work in a team, the Duster is also
            the team leader. We’ll talk about that in Chapter 9.

            Strategy
            The  strategy  here  is  similar  to  the  one  for  the  kitchen  and
            bathroom:  Start in one place and then work your way through
            the rooms without backtracking, using The PMC Rules.

            As before, work from back to front and from high to low. For the
            Duster,  this  instruction  takes  on  additional  importance:  dust
            follows a relentless gravitational path downward, diverted only
