Ex-custodian here, worked for 5 years..did you have any hazing by the crew when you first got the summer job? I started as a summer cleaner and there were about 5 full time cleaners there. On my first day I was told to distribute about 50 5 gallons buckets of wax and stripping solution throughout the 5 story building to stock each janitor's closet. No elevator, solo. The sides of my legs were black and blue for a good week or so. Most people are oblivious to the amount of work that goes into summer cleaning, i used to bring 2 sets of clothes because of the summer heat and chemicals burning up the floor all day. Good money and benefits, got me to where i am today.
