What's the point of vaccuming outdoors?

Today there were two maintainance dudes outside vaccuming the stairs up to the building I work in. I walk on those stairs nearly every day, and they're certainly not very dirty, at least not enough to justify using a vaccum cleaner over a hand-held broom sweeping device. Maybe there was a chemical spill I don't know about.

Are you sure they're vaccuming and not using leaf blowers? (um,though I don't know why there would still be any leaves on the ground)

My friends mum once had to hoover the lawn after we burned the Yellow Pages in the garden.

Yeah, I'm sure. It was a big shop vac type thing.

What a sinister looking hand-held broom sweeping device.
