In a previous post, I talked a bit about the way custodians are perceived. I mentioned how they are often viewed with disdain or below average; the bottom of the barrel so-to-speak. Backing up this observation, I ran across an interesting article about a Fortune 500 man who took a job as a janitor. He expressed the same feelings of how he was perceived by others when doing janitorial work. I think you'll find the article interesting. Check it out here.
Note: Not all view custodians or janitors with disrespect. There are those who are very appreciative and wonderful.
Educating custodians, school staff, students, parents and the public on the duties, responsibilities and needs of a school facility. Working to make the custodial department more understandable and hoping to engage the support and help of all who use the campus. Sharing information on several cleaning-related, health and custodial topics to enlighten readers and requesting input from all who peruse this blog.
