Quote from @Theresa Harris:

It should be safety glass meaning it shattered into a lot of small cubes that aren't sharp.  She can sweep it up and do a quick vacuum.  Go over with a broom, bucket (to put the glass in) and a wet dry vac (to vacuum the floor afterwards).


 When I replaced the glass last time I special ordered a tempered glass that was supposed to be shatter proof but this glass shattered. She was complaining that she was stepping on glass for weeks last time, which sounds excessive to me, so I ended up sending a cleaning crew but I’m bitter about it. 

Quote from @Bruce Woodruff:

I would not think a tenant would need to have this cleaned up for them. It's not a big deal. IS this tenant a PITA in other ways too?

I wouldn’t call her a PITA she is kind but I do feel she makes requests I wouldn’t ever make if I were in her position. I feel it’s excessive to request I send someone to clean up (and she says she wants it done immediately). I did end up sending someone because I don’t want to deal with her whining but it might be my being so attentive that enables this behavior.  

My tenant says that her glass shower door shattered out of no where when no one was in the bathroom (this is the second time in one year). I do not know how glass breaks with no point of contact but that is beside the point. Last time I replaced the glass door. This time she request I just put in a shower curtain which is fine but is also requesting I send someone to clean up all the glass. Is that my responsibility? Would you send a cleaning lady or simply send your handyman to replace the door and expect tenant to clean up the glass?
