Thank you for posting this.I am sick and tired of those who say we are all lazy.If that's the case,then who's cleaning 25 classrooms,4 bathrooms,teachers room,stairways,shoveling snow,lunch duties,dealing with contractors,and so on?
Just started my 2 week here in the PNW I’m loving it it makes me so proud when I know I’ve done a good job even if others don’t care to much it’s a hell of a lot better for my back than being a mover
Believe me SCHOOL CUSTODIANS work hard , and are treated as if they are never doing their jobs right . I Thank all the school Teachers who have worked with their school Janitors to keep their schools clean , the beast Principals have been those evaluate you fairly .
Thank you for this. I myself am a public school district custodian, and it is not the easiest. It is also the furthest from glamorous... But you gotta do what you gotta do. And, I'm not sure a majority of people even think of our job, we are kinda invisible. However, I will say My favorite part of my job is helping out and putting the teachers I clean for at ease. That part is really rewarding. 😄
Your do right, I am s custodian as well, we are working short handed as a result if budget cuts, but the crew we have is amazing! Thank you for your hard work!
I work food service, I like to just do the job and keep to myself without the chit chat, I hope that my new custodial job allows me to work with few people and more independently
I was a custodian, until the school committee voted to outsource our department. It wasn't about saving money it was about stomping on the little guy and busting the union. This country is falling apart because of greed and nobody caring about the other guy. All you people in a position of power be careful what you wish for, not only are you hurting the custodians and their family you're hurting the kids and the community. It's for the kids right?
What the guy said from 2:55-3:17 hit me right where I'm at right now. Lost a job driving a City Bus making good money. After I was terminated 2-3 other coworkers were also fired. It's no joke, some places don't have the job security anymore. They move you out for any little thing and bring someone else at half the pay minus the full time benefits.
I've worked in several different schools and now at a university as a custodian. I work primarily 2nd shift occasionally on first shift and sometimes 3rd shift. It always seems like first shift is usually the easiest. Where I work at now most first shifts have about 3 hours worth of work to do in an eight hour shift. While second shift has at least a solid 6 hours worth of work and that's if your moving at a good pace. first shifters are lazy.
My freand is a Custodian in one world financial center in new york, we works floors 5-45 and up I think he is 18 and works for ABM. He could move to One WTC when its done but he is going to move on to big and better things like a building super.
The custodian pissed me off in High School, we would eat lunch outside and the wind would blow all the garbage to the corner of the courtyard we hung out at. The custodian thought we were just throwing our trash on the ground and banned us from eating outside.
we should be the humble rock star to be happy . maybe that only makes sense to me . life is attitude including cleaning up after todays children. we have to chain the dumpsters so kids don't push them down the hill. to a kid that is funny . ok its funny to me too.
dawg i am a janitor and its ass the place i work at only has one (me) and they dont clean when im not there bc im 18 and still in high school and my manager breathes down my neck and i also have two 2 managers. yes 2 ppl telling me different shit to do. my store is nasty as fuck too
@padude64 yea the parents are ignorant i work at a school the parents and the children don't have any respect for the custodians one parent cursed one of the custodians out cause he asked him to close the door behind him and the parent told juan he was a lazy custodian and i'm like how you lazy and you cleaning up after they kids i was so mad.
Oh and Les (less than a man) i was a janitor from my late teens to my early 20s. Before i stopped being a looser and earned a REAL trade. no union needed. I have real skills. Men with real skills don't worry about job security.
well it depends if you are an actual school employee or a contracted custodian. i was lucky enough to be hired by the school district in the md 70s, and we made a decent wage(it was a little over 17 dollars an hour when i retired 3 years ago) but unfortunately now most schools only use outside contracted custodians, and they pay them peanuts (8-9 dollars an hour). they have a very high turnover rate, because people aren't going to stick around if something better comes along, and i don't blame them!!
I have no idea where else to go to ask a question to other custodians so here's my issue. I clean an elementary school alongside one other person, I go in 1 pm and I can do maybe 3 rooms before school is out. At 3 pm my partner comes in and we begin cleaning our classrooms, we have until 8 pm to clean the school and we just aren't able to for whatever reason we are always stuck there for an hour after our shift should have ended. I don't believe we spend too much time on our tasks, in fact I don't think we spend enough time with them. We get in trouble for being there late, but we also get into trouble if we don't get it finished. I have asked my boss what we might be doing wrong or what we could do different but she only compares us to her previous staff which does not help us. I do know that something is wrong when we almost never get to mop an entire classroom floor but we still can't get out by 8. Any advice out there? Thanks.
This is the most disgusting job I have did in my life I have been cleaning bathroom now for four years it's really disgusting I got fired because I didn't clean the toilet really good because the managers treat their employees like shit
Hell yea. Just this summer i left being a bricklayer for 15 years to do custodial maintenance at a nursing home for less than a 3rd the pay. But I love my my job and life again.
All custodians if a wage freeze is asked, take it, because we do not want to see anyone lose their jobs! We MUST be together on this! The republicans then talk about gays as an entity! Gays are not the entity, it is over population! The bigotry needs to stop and now!

Absolutely!!!
so right, and you would be very surprised how messy teachers are
Just started my 2 week here in the PNW I’m loving it it makes me so proud when I know I’ve done a good job even if others don’t care to much it’s a hell of a lot better for my back than being a mover
I was a school custodian for 40 years. I know what it's like. thanks for posting this.

Hey, thank you for what you do Sadie. I have a lot of respect for your occupation.

Thought you died
It's not always the kids that are a problem. Superintendents, principals, and the head custodian, are usually huge problems.

All kidding aside, no seriously, break time is the best part.
Funny, it seems I'm not alone in hell...
I'm a supermarket custodian. Keep up the great work!
Great Job!
Congratulations to the custodial staff.

ggod for you

Best of luck, I have been one for 6 years now.

Definitely an unappreciated job.
Amen to that brother.

We need more media outlying this kind of stuff.

@Big Bobby Lee Curtis Me or summer?
No. I'm gonna put gums under the chair and throw trash anywhere. Imma let ellis and his janitor friends clean it.
Mister LMAO that's everyone
how much does a custodial 1 usually makes perfect hour?
school custodian make about 12 to 20 an hour depending the facility
Michael Watson in Jcps they are starting 14 an hour
Have any idea if a custodian works while kids are in the building? Or is it just in rooms where there isn't any kids during school hours?
I just started so my starting salary is 60k
well it depends if you are an actual school employee or a contracted custodian. i was lucky enough to be hired by the school district in the md 70s, and we made a decent wage(it was a little over 17 dollars an hour when i retired 3 years ago) but unfortunately now most schools only use outside contracted custodians, and they pay them peanuts (8-9 dollars an hour). they have a very high turnover rate, because people aren't going to stick around if something better comes along, and i don't blame them!!
the teachers don't care don't give me that stuff
its a great job with good benefits. I make over 40kfull time a year and i dont even have a college education.
POY PORTLANDIA same here i just got in full time they stared me at 53 k
Where do you guys work at?
definitely not noticed i am one at msp airport ppl are just rude to us
I have no idea where else to go to ask a question to other custodians so here's my issue.

I wouldn't do it. Cleaning up vomit and feces. Also, layoffs.
This is the most disgusting job I have did in my life I have been cleaning bathroom now for four years it's really disgusting I got fired because I didn't clean the toilet really good because the managers treat their employees like shit
i love being a custiodian. construction sucked.
Hell yea. Just this summer i left being a bricklayer for 15 years to do custodial maintenance at a nursing home for less than a 3rd the pay. But I love my my job and life again.
a brainless job. I know. I did it for 9 years before i got into a skilled trade.
@bocobob
they dont care about the kids, its just greed, plain and simple
*menial*
All custodians if a wage freeze is asked, take it, because we do not want to see anyone lose their jobs! We MUST be together on this! The republicans then talk about gays as an entity! Gays are not the entity, it is over population! The bigotry needs to stop and now!
Listen to me as I speak the truth! God loves all of his people and does not favor republicans this time
Now you custodians better never vote for an evil republican because they want the rich man to get ahead befofre the middle class and I am damn mad!
Embarrassing. Shameful.
God used to see the right wing as good but now sees tem as gamblers from hell!
