Really? I've always felt that shoe removal is just common courtesy. Some (most) folks I service prefer to keep their carpets clean and I feel that I owe it to them to do my part. I'm never asked to remove my shoes - I always have them off immediately inside the door. Common courtesy. We take our shoes off at the door, and do so when visiting friends. I don't feel reduced to a common laborer, just a courteous guest. I've always felt it was simply respectful - unless I'm in a home where my shoes stand to get more dirty than the floor...........
