To offer a different perspective, this video depicts what school could look like without janitors. The responsibility of janitors is to keep the premises clean. This includes cleaning floors, picking up trash and other general maintenance. Be kind to janitors by cleaning up after yourself and thank one next time you see them.

There are over 2 million janitors employed as of 2014 according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics.

Senior Elizabeth Baker appreciates janitors because they do work most people would stay away from. 

“They do a job that isn’t always pleasant but because of what they do, our campus is clean and beautiful for everyone that comes to it.” Baker said.
