Try out the above message board. Some suggestions for issues to "chew on": Do you call yourself Janitor, Custodian, Maid, Public Building Domestic Maintenance Engineer? What do you like about your job? What cleaning chemicals and equipment do you like to use? Are the cleaning chemicals safe or do body parts fall off? Are shift hours steady? Are you treated with respect and are your ideas honestly considered? Have problems with vandalism? Got good advice on cleaning, repairing and preventing vandalism and littering? How about recycling, hazardous materials, safety and injury issues....need help or have information to share?

What do you know about Green Cleaning? Do you like team cleaning? Use micro fiber? Keep a useful, fun and informative bulletin board? Do you do beacher set ups? Have issues with lunch table set ups? When more tasks are added to your shift are you given more time to complete these tasks? Are your hours cut? Have any humorous on the job stories? Any sage advice on getting along with co-workers, staff, students? Have any safety tips? Do you have a "best" way to do a job/handy hints? Are your co-workers just out and out strange? J  Let it all out here...share your pain!

A ladder safety tip:
Ladder: Make sure someone else is in the building, in your area or nearby. "Buddy system". Bad case senario:
A Friday evening...falling from tall ladder...injured horribly...not able to move and not being discovered until the following Monday.

Custodial work is generally laborious and physically demanding. Maintaining your health is important in ensuring that you will be able to work for a long time to come. A massage chair may be just the thing you need to protect against long-term injury.
