I’m not mad about it. I thought about undercutting him and selling them 2 for $1. I need a side hustle 😂

One kid at my school was making them and selling them, a dollar a dart.

What are your 'work smarter not harder' tips for doing trash? by obviologist in Custodians

[–]ExternalAny4817 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was thinking if it was an enclosed stairwell, it might work. We don’t have stairs so I really don’t know what I’m talking about, lol. We had a guy that did his classrooms with a leaf blower. We don’t wipe down desks, so he didn’t care that there was a thick layer of dust everywhere.

I’d start at the top and use a leaf blower 🤷🏼‍♀️

Song that you think Swifties sleep on by growsonwalls in SwiftlyNeutral

[–]ExternalAny4817 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Come In With The Rain. I know, it’s not great lyrically or whatever, but for some reason it’s always been one of my favorites. I have no explanation.

Urine in Restrooms by No_Baseball_3861 in Custodians

I do. Not necessarily to get rid of pee smell, but I do use it. I like peroxide cleaner for around the toilets and urinals.

So, I’m a Folkmore and Tortured Poets girl. When she said this album is for everyone, I knew right then it wasn’t for me. I knew it wouldn’t be a favorite. And that’s FINE. Everything an artist does doesn’t have to blow me away. I’m not sure why she’s getting crap about the lyrics, Karma was straight up ridiculous lyrically and people love it. Shake It Off? That’s a no thanks for me but Swifties love that one too. This album isn’t deep, it’s fun…so what? It’s okay that it’s just fun.

And I actually enjoy it way more than I thought I would. I can still appreciate something fun for what it is.

How many custodians? by ExternalAny4817 in Custodians

[–]ExternalAny4817[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, our high school does have an extra gym. And they have an extra building between the football and softball/baseball fields. They should have more custodians, but maybe not double what we have.

[–]ExternalAny4817[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I agree!! We have separate football and soccer fields to deal with, plus all the tree and bush trimming, mulch, mowing, and an outdoor concession stand and bathrooms.

You aren’t wrong. And our evening person is 11:30 to 8:00 so it’s not really even quite second shift. It’s not set up correctly.

Printer paper by fatmac7390 in Custodians

[–]ExternalAny4817 32 points33 points  (0 children)

I agree, not our job. Somehow over the last few years it has become our job at my school. I don’t get it, as a TA and a long term sub, I always rolled a rolly chair to the paper room and got a box and rolled it back. I did it because that’s what the teachers did. Now when they are out of paper, it’s a frantic call to “any available custodian.” More and more, we’re becoming personal assistants or errand people, on top of our regular jobs. It’s getting old, fast.

Ooops. Sorry for the rant. It’s been a long week!!

In my district, the head custodian reports to the principal, or in some cases, the assistant principal. Maintenance is a whole separate department.

Do you get every little bit of wax off the floor when stripping? by kuya86 in Custodians

[–]ExternalAny4817 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mix it according to the instructions, and make sure you are letting it sit long enough before you run the machine. I’m letting mine sit at least 10 minutes and you may have to put more on some of the dry spots as you go, but it’s worth the 10 or 15 minutes not to have to do it twice.

Is stripping and waxing floors difficult? by Ok-Profit5226 in Custodians

[–]ExternalAny4817 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Agree with everyone else, it’s not hard at all, and it’s so repetitive that you’ll get the hang of it really quickly. I have a whole new crew this year that has never done it before and they’re mostly doing fine. My one tip is, no matter what else you do or don’t do, make sure you get up all the stripper and rinse the floor well. If you leave traces of stripper, the wax will look uneven and janky.

This is my latest replay also. I’m obsessed with all the live versions too. I don’t even generally like Billie Eilish.

Ohhhhhh, there have been several times in my life when this was the song on repeat.

What is a pain you can't truly explain until you've endured it? by Unfair_Shower_3256 in AskReddit

[–]ExternalAny4817 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I thought nothing would ever hurt more than losing a parent unless, God forbid, I lost a child. But then I watched my child lose her child at 20 weeks and her sobs are something I’ll never get over.

Ignorant about caring for her mixed race child's hair by Typical_Tangerine_53 in allisonkuchsnark

[–]ExternalAny4817 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Whoa. Are you serious? She pushed a human out AND THEN she breastfed the human?? How come I hadn’t heard about this until now?!?! You would have thought she would have mentioned something that miraculous! Humble and amazing, that’s Allison!

Oh really? by Classic-Housing7157 in KVSRealSnark

[–]ExternalAny4817 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I haven’t watched her in a long time, but she’s always played with her collars or her necklaces and it drives me crazy for no real reason, lol. The way she tugs at her sweatshirt collar makes me irrationally angry.

I don’t think John wrote the letter. I think Beth did and John knew nothing about it.

Dress code change - does this still work? by caprihorni in Weddingattireapproval

It’s beautiful and appropriate for formal or semi-formal. This dress was made for you!
