I’m on day 4 of my new job as a custodian and I love it so much!! I’m also taking online real estate courses so after 3pm when everyone leaves the building I can listen to my real estate classes while working.I really like my job a lot. Stress level is so LOW!!
I would ask for a pay scale where you are. Different systems pay differently. So that would be hard for me to answer for ya. When I was in a regular school system top out was 29 thousand a year. I may much more than that at the collage I work at now.
I’m the only janitor for 17 yrs in my local school of 150 kids. It’s a hard job , not for everyone, I hate my new boss, lower pay but it’s all good. I’m retiring in 4 yrs .
I start this Monday and I am excited!! My aunt has been a custodian for 5 years now and she says it's a laidback and easy job SOMETIMES lol she works in a high school. Thanks for these type of videos it really gives me an outlook on what to look forward to! :)
People don’t realize how great being a custodian really is. Guaranteed work, great pay, amazing benefits, 401K pension, union, every holiday off that the kids get off, sick time, vacation time, and a plethora of overtime.
How is it? I’m doing overnight grocery and bending over lifting then cutting open boxes then pulling items forward up and down the shelves for hours shits killing me, working a manual labor job for 40 hours a week seems impossible if this is the standard
@@spacecowboylld well I’m not going to tell you where I work but I make $33.00 an hour. I work mid shift which is 12pm-10pm Monday through Friday or 3pm to 11pm rotating Saturday’s for overtime but only if you want it but I never say no because it’s $49.50 an hour for overtime. You clean the school set up for gatherings etc. I love the job but it’s difficult to get into. It’s not what you know it’s who you know. But look at your local school district contract that’ll show all of the wages. Apply and if you don’t get it constantly look for openings.
Tell the District to buy you a back pack Vacuum w/ sidewinder straight handle. The only time you'll use the broom is when its closer than the Vac. and you don't feel like picking something up.
Around a lot of things at work at two years and I work with PD 20 years do that. Not a great video station thank you appreciate the field video. Thank you very much.❤
Just got hired as a custodian here in CA. Work 7.5 hours a day but get paid for 8. 20.50 hour start pay. Have about 14-18 paid holidays where I don’t have to work. 12 sick days a year. Good bennies for free. Monday-Friday. Why the hell did I not join sooner lol
@@JoseMora-wc5zz it's a mixed bag. i worked in Michigan, for one thing. that means a lot cleaning up after winter weather. and THAT alone, is a whole thing in itself! but, don't be afraid, even if that is the case, you will get the routine after a while. good luck to you Jose.
@@johnjarou2357 I actually got an amazing gig. It’s an elementary. Benefits are great, pay is 17, I don’t have to worry about outside stuff cuz I’m the night custodian, and we have a 70yr rule. Your age plus the years worked here to 70 and you can retire.
We are on winter break right now and we basically do the same as you do but we each have our own little area to clean each night I work at a middle school and it’s pretty dirty every night
No there are 7 custodians at the school. We have 2000 thousand students. 1st thru 4th grade where I work. We have 6 schools in our system. Our school system is huge for a little town. We have one of the biggest Elementary schools in the south East that’s the school I work at. A two story Elementary school. So it takes a team of us to pull keeping it clean off.
School custodian we have 1,500 students and only 3 on night shift one 4 hours too so yeah I clean the whole 2nd floor by myself and locker room and gym plus 2 stairs
I have been working at a university for 12 years we have so much heavy work, this is a nice gig, best part is you don’t have to work with a bunch of ignorant personalities
I just got a job as a janitor and I love it so much. I have depression and anxiety and freak out in a retail environment and this environment is very therapeutic for me. It’s the perfect job for introverts or people with anxiety issues around other people.
School Custodian's is not easy job's, because I already know, I am Custodian to . School Custodians are. awesome cleaning, Keep doing a great job cleaning Schools , Custodian Mike W,
It's a good first job to start, I started being a custodian when I was 19. It taught me a lot of things, like discipline, fast working, not be lazy, etc. After a year and a half moved up to i.t work but I genuinely liked cleaning, I think it's a good skill in life. Good luck!
I wouldn't let you be the only person cleaning!! Because if I was working where you are right now!!I would make sure to help you out!!But only if it is morning evening or afternoon shift!!But I can't do night shift because I have a mental disorder that prevents me from staying up too long!!
Can custodian work be easy on the back? I'm thinking about leaving my truck drivers position for custodian, I'm 50 years old and just have 3 years for retirement, the food service job I have to lift heavy boxes of frozen meat and vegetables every day, and the custodian position is 6am to 3pm. Let me know your opinion on this matter. 👌🏾
I would have to say it depends. Where I am now in a community college I don’t have to deal with lifting to often. Just daily garbage is my heaviest thing. The 20 years of being a school custodian. That was a different story. I was always lifting. Moving furniture unloading trucks and what ever else. So really can’t answer this clearly. In most part of a custodian job a lot of back work.
Is it usualt in US to work directly for the school system as cleaner? Here in my country it's the job for the big cleaning companys and for tyical school you have only between 2 and 4 hous a day. Classrooms are usualy cleaned only once or twice a week, hallways only at the ground floor daily other floors mostly 2 times a week, bathrooms daily, offices once a week so i was a bit surprized to see that this is a full job for you.
Hum this man just proved 1 person can clean a whole school by 1 self I think it’s better with 1 clearer should be able to clean the entire school by one self in 8 hours
Hello, @@mrjeffthecustodian I love your videos. I am also a full-time custodian at an elementary school. We have a total of 26 robot vacuums (1 per classroom) and click them on every night. They actually handle the messes quite well, better than you might expect. I hope you keep an open mind to the idea, and I will be posting more videos about using these vacuums in the near future. I wish you well in finishing out this school year. Summer is just around the corner ;)
@@CravingThePump I so wish I could post photos in comments. I watched your video of the robot. your floor was already cleaner than mine are after I clean a room lol. I sweep up chip bags water bottles pencils . I only have two teacher that keep their room picked up enough that I think robot would actually in. By the way your halls look amazing. I worked in a school for 11 years that had terrazio. So miss how well those floors always looked.
I have a job interview for custodian job at a school I haven’t had any custodian experience I work at a restaurants for 6 years doing dishes and cleaning the restaurant maybe it is a same thing as custodian work? 🤷🏼♂️
The experience of cleaning with people around will be much helpful. I’m sure you will notice a difference. I have a friend who has been a custodian for 38 years. He also worked as a dish washer 3 nights a week in a restaurant for 15 years. He said there was more down time in custodian work. That he could set his own work pace a little easier. Custodian work can have its days where there is a rush. Much like those times when restaurants have a rush of busy days. I can say this best job I have ever had. Just control the job don’t let it control you.
@Michael David Diaz Sr I haven’t starting yet but maybe in August I did training for it and so far I love it don’t deal with people if I want to do it after school hours!
I cleaned them during the day. I split them up. Half of them one day. Then half the next Al day. Rotation every other day. Cleaned them during there PE and lunch times.
@@mrjeffthecustodian my cleaning is split between morning and afternoon when the students aren't in . I prefer an empty building when I'm cleaning.

Times is tight in my school and it's a real struggle to do more than the basics.
I was assistant store mgr for 31 years - is this a job a 57 year old can do -? Career change or I’m just from the frying pan to fire ?? Looking for lower stress
It’s a great job. As for as stress that depends on who you work for mostly and the people your around. Coming from a manager job you get that. I think you would really enjoy the job.
@@mrjeffthecustodian thank you so much mr jeff - i have been watching your videos all day - it appears u do the same thing with a little variation every day - u definitely are organized - i like to think I’m organized- but cleaning 40 hours a week - how does that get tedious and boring ???
Hi there, if you have a DUI on your record from 12 years ago ,that is not expunged , will that be something that would you prevent you from getting a job as a custodian?
In our system week work 245 days out of the year. We get to pick and choose what holidays we want to work. We are required to work 14 of them or take leave. I work them all so I can save my days for more time of in the summer. I had rather be off in summer weather than winter. So I’m working 7 days this year during Christmas break. I was off the week of Thanksgiving soaking up some Florida sun. After this 7 days I will work president day and Martin Luther king day. I will have all my days in. So I will be off the whole week of spring break.
@@mrjeffthecustodianme too! I'm going to be applying for a custodian job. I like my current job but there's a lot of driving involved. I'm at that point I'd rather stay closer to home. Sitting on my butt three to four hours a day is not very good for my health.
I really want to work as a custodian in schools, but where do we apply for that? Is there a website for that nowadays, and can you tell me what the website name is if there's one? Thanks
I've ben a small high school cleaner custodian for 4 years..im the only custodian who cleans..i also host all sports grad. Plays ect. In my buikding..as long as I do a good job its great job security..my question is..my bathroom floors are dingy looking..i know there's gotta b away to get rid of the dingy ness...n e ideas would b appreciated
@@mrjeffthecustodian .my boss believes there ceramic tiles..we got a 21 million dollar grant to make a new building pre k to 12th..its just the point of knowing..n we have extremely hard water in this small town
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
Mr Jeff Custodian oh I’m sorry I am not in your school I live in North Dakota I’m just a new custodian I probably should of said it differently like instead of at this school I probably should of said at a school my bad
@@mrjeffthecustodian wow! One less step in the classroom I guess. This school I’m cleaning has a bathroom in every classroom so there are even more steps! Lol
Such a unrewarding job worked for a school system for 11 years if you are a human you will come out a robot your controlled from when your at the job to what you do outside of work if you like freedom and being your own person and having your own thoughts don’t work for the government
In my case. With my strong will. I’m not there robot. I’m a human being and I don’t let them control me. The mind is the battle ground of my job. I stay away from the negative as much as possible. I do what I can. Do my job well go home. Then do it again the next day.
Yeah good luck with that but I seen a lot of good people be completely broke down from the education system and that’s not just the custodians if you like it more power to you I’d rather pick up dog shit then work for a school system ever again
I just started. Today is my 4th day on the job and I freaking love it!! No micromanaging and I’m by myself a lot. Cleaning has always been therapeutic for me. I’m mad I didn’t think of this job sooner 🤣
When he said “now howm i supposed to clean this? I know how, im not” i felt that for every classroom lmao
Omg I literally felt that being a janitor in a factory 🤣🤣🤣
I’m on day 4 of my new job as a custodian and I love it so much!! I’m also taking online real estate courses so after 3pm when everyone leaves the building I can listen to my real estate classes while working.I really like my job a lot. Stress level is so LOW!!

@@mrjeffthecustodian wow! One less step in the classroom I guess. This school I’m cleaning has a bathroom in every classroom so there are even more steps! Lol
Had a Raymond. Just got rid of him
There are Raymond’s ever where. Lol
@@mrjeffthecustodian you got that right!!
Such a unrewarding job worked for a school system for 11 years if you are a human you will come out a robot your controlled from when your at the job to what you do outside of work if you like freedom and being your own person and having your own thoughts don’t work for the government
In my case. With my strong will. I’m not there robot. I’m a human being and I don’t let them control me. The mind is the battle ground of my job. I stay away from the negative as much as possible. I do what I can. Do my job well go home. Then do it again the next day.
Yeah good luck with that but I seen a lot of good people be completely broke down from the education system and that’s not just the custodians if you like it more power to you I’d rather pick up dog shit then work for a school system ever again
Do kids clown alot?
Every know and then.
I'm a new custodian but im loving it. Just getting off a ten hour shift working at two different schools. My feet are so sore lol.
Make sure you have some really good shoes.
I just started. Today is my 4th day on the job and I freaking love it!! No micromanaging and I’m by myself a lot. Cleaning has always been therapeutic for me. I’m mad I didn’t think of this job sooner 🤣
