Loving it !!!!!

Loser job

More like loser university

good morning , what about a good fat raise they need us pretty bad !

Truth.

I've been a custodian for 9 to 10 years I recently got promoted to a head custodian I never held it was just before give me some tools to help me get the vision and walking to this position they've been absent without a head custoned for a minute I'm in the elementary school but I guess my ability of knowing the job is knowledge of the job about position how can I make this work for me without carrying the whole building on my shoulder give me some tools to create a nice environment and clean building standards

Wow, I'm reading the comments, and its unfortunate that so many people have had negative experiences in this career. I have never been looked down on by a teacher or any staff member. The teachers have always treated me nice. When they threw parties, and there were leftovers, they would leave it all for me. Soda, food, cake, snacks, you name it. When a 5th grade teacher had a rough day with her class, I'd take a moment to listen to her and let her vent. Shoot, as I'm cleaning tables, the teacher would cry and let it all out. It was almost like therapy for her. And in terms of leadership, it has been a mixed bag over the years. Some principals would be neutral, some wouldn't care. But my latest principal backs me up 1000 percent. She can see the slackers and those that REALLY work. And the slackers that think that they can sham their way through life, well, they get to deal with her wrath. lol. And as far as training goes, I suppose it could have been better. I just paid attention along the way, all through the years. Use this technique on that, use this chemical on that area. It would be cool if there was a national janitorial test that we could take. And with a high score came the option to transfer to another state. I'm in southern California by the way.

Thank you, President!

Spot on Brandon!!Thanks Andi!!

Well said, Brandon! I couldn't agree more. Thanks for bringing to light how important Custodial workers are during this pandemic and every day! Janitors deserve more recognition!

Thank you for helping people stay healthy!!! Cleaning for health . . . something I heard time and time again. My applause to the cleaning workers everywhere!!!

I remember in first grade, I drew a picture for and hugged our janitor for doing what he did. I'm forever grateful for all the janitors that do what we don't seem to want to do--manage, maintain, and keep our places clean!

I going Ther

Some companies such as proteam have such cheap ass cords that they tangle with every use from the heat.

what guage chord is that?

I've done it 22 years and had I never endured so much disrespect until working as one in Stockton California amongst my own supposed coworkers, doing the same classification and experiencing the same issues😲🤤😵😨😱

i know what he is saying

Just a word of advice. Janitor and Custodian are two different job descriptions. Janitors don't provide security or provode many duties a custodian does. This man doesn't use the word Janitor as his title if you notice.

it's all pawns and kings.....and people push their duties on the janitor..

my son type o sorry

My adult works as a healthcare worker custodian at CUSD in San Diego he works very hard as well as all the others do .They deserve respect if it wasn't for those men/ women there .the environment would be unclean and not safe they work extremely hard and I'm very proud of all those women and men who do that job so let's give him a high-five

I thank you and admire you for doing this. A lot of times, it seems like we custodians are invisible... but not always. I am not a head custodian, but ever since I started with the Belton, MO school district, I have gave it my all to do my best. Yes, at times I get looked down upon, but when I have had a steady run, I have made pretty great relationships with my teachers. It really would be great if we could, as a whole, be consistent as a group, and be better recognized. 😄

If I had the money and the chance to attend OS1 Training I would take the opportunity in a heart beat. I currently work for Caesar Rodney School District. Dover,DE. And Like Most people know you don't get as much professional Training like this company offers. What I would do to become OS1 Certified and advance my career. I feel as though every janitor should be OS1 certified.

I work as one at a school and I get looked down the nose on, it's like teachers are the elitist and treat us like slaves and scape goats.

Major problems at my University. Micromanaging. No respect for sure, Supervisors who never even did the job, and still to this day don't know how to strip and wax a floor. Very low work morale. Freeze hiring creating more work as the University grows, spreading everyone thin, falsifying evaluations after we sign them they turn them into human resources with their comments written in, that we had no knowledge of. Not allowed to take a shampoo machine home, but getting text messages while I am home relaxing I get a text from my supervisor I need the machine I bought a new house, so I don't want you to think it was stolen, but if I did that cause for termination.

It must be done like this. It really stinks and waists so much time when it is all twisted. 4 min or less time the more you do it is better than the bad job you get fighting it. Twisted cord is also a sing that proper hip technique is not being done. And over time thid can cause back injures.

I know what you mean, I work as a janitor and the cord on my vacuum was duct taped, I'm not sure what that duct tape is covering but I opted not to take it off to find out. lol

Jay, keep in mind that ManageMen/(OS1) are third party to our clients (i.e. Wake Forest Universtiy). We have no authority in how they compensate their employees. Generally speaking, in cleaning teams, we do suggest that they rotate and are cross-trained in all the specialties so that if someone is absent, someone else could fill in for the night.

ok i understand..... are they all paid the same? restroom person vs. vaccum person or what ? do they rotate every so often so that 1 person doesnt get stuck doin restrooms all the time? is it based on senority? what happens if 1 or more are absent or on vacation?do they get repetitive job injuries if they do the same task all the time? what if 1 finishes earlier than the the others does he help out or what? if so seems like he would be doing extra work over his co workers?

(OS1) is based on team cleaning, and it is not a new concept. In team cleaning, there are 4 specialists on a cleaning team (Light Duty, Vacuum, Restroom and Utility). All tools and equipment that each specialist/cleaning worker uses is tracked for proper use, cleanliness and working condition by the management and/or training department. All I can say is, (OS1) is operating in many different union environments across the nation and this is not an issue for them.

custodian ,why else would i be looking at this kind of stuff on my own time? i like to use examples , if i told you i could 2x your gas mileage wud u be interested? now if i told u i cud 2x your productivity at work by changing the way you do things wud u still b as interested prolly not ! the boss might be interested but not the worker,

well he talks about having specialist ( i think was the term he used) so im assuming its a group that does the vaccuming? do they also check the other groups equipment ? buckets, brooms , bathroom carts,etc? im just wondering how that works? im not against your method it may just be our"unique" group of workers here they are able to find fault with any new methods or ideas, so does the vaccuming group feel singled out and what if they complained about that ? im not against you i love being a

(OS1) operates in both union and non-union environments. I am not sure how preventative maintenance could be viewed as harassment.

Actually, You may have noticed that this video is set up to be utilized as a quick training video. While the video length is indeed 4 minutes, he's doing a lot of talking and explaining while he's demonstrating how to properly wind the cord. Obviously, he would not take 4 minutes to wind the cord each time if he was a Janitor out on the floor.

sir you took 4 min.to roll up a cord if you have 20 to 30 offices to service imagine how much time you spend winding up the cord in a day ! it looks good for an end of day type thing! have you ever tried rolling up up cord with latex gloves on? try it

i am team leader in a college setting your idea sounds good but i wonder if your workers are in a union? here where i work this would probably be considered some form of harrasment

If you're aware of the Performance Exam for Custodian, please explain in details exactly what I need to do to proceed the Performance Exam, thank.

We do have tons of positive experience working in union environments, including Teamsters.

CONSTANT HARASSMENT, ACCUSATIONS OF STEALING EVERYTHING, TEATED WITH NO RESPECT EVER, NO TRAINING WHATSOEVER AND NO QUALIFICATIONS NEEDED TO BE A SUPERVISOR, JUST SENIORITY. ALWAYS UNDERSTAFFED AND ALWAYS A HOSTLE WORK ENVIRONMENT. BRENTWOOD SCHOOL DISTRICT LONG ISLAND NY. TEAMSTERS 237 (good luck with that)

your right janitors should be treated with respect

Good for you! : ) You'd be surprised how many twisted and abused cords we see in all types of facilities.

Thank you ManageMen! What an awesome group of people! I can watch this everyday! Nancy, LAHH

@denkar2009 It's up to the end user(districts, head custodians, etc) to decide whether or not they want to do (OS1). It sounds like which ever district or school you work in has it's own plan...and that's great. Of course, we are going to be advocates of our program because we have data that proves that it does work. However, we certainly don't go around forcing people to do (OS1). We only get involved if someone asks for our help or expresses some kind of interest in our program.

@denkar2009 Not sure what meeting you are referring to exactly. Every meeting that we (ManageMen) have been invited to, and known about...we've shown up. The initial meeting with the district/head custodians we were supposed to have, we were told was canceled and not to come. The 2nd meeting we had was supposed to be out at the central warehouse, we showed up...and nobody else did. The 3rd meeting was out at Taylorsville High with a handful of head custodians in the district.
