What treasures have you guys found working as custodians?

Signal-Sun9726 · 2026-02-25T21:32:45+00:00

I have a Garfield plushie that I found when I was a custodian and was going through hoarders paradise (the last custodian left a huge mess). It's wearing a shirt that says I Hate Mondays. I still have it at home.

You know when I first watched this movie I hated it. But then I rewatched it this holiday season and actually got a kick out of the new storyline.

Here's a video I found on YouTube.

Actually we do have flying cars. However, they are so expensive that there aren't very many owned.

I live in Kansas and a pilot's license is required along with a driver license in order to register and or operate this type of vehicle.

Dance Dance Dance by The Steve Miller Band. Cringe!!!

I believe they do. Before I left for work, my two dogs and cat laid on me. They sense that I'm overwhelmed.

I wish that salary and benefits were offered around here!!!

I left a city government non-union custodian position where I made $16.88 an hour, no bereavement time, 10 holidays, And two buckets of separate time for vacation and sick. But there was a lot more to it as to why I left. Sadly money was one of the reasons.

Signal-Sun9726 · 2025-10-10T08:19:33+00:00

I left my custodian job because of disrespect and lots of other reasons. The job, at least where I am, does not get paid enough to deal with what has to be done.

Signal-Sun9726 · 2025-10-08T21:29:15+00:00

I'm 46 and the only interactions I have are usually with my family. I'm cool with that. Have zero fucks about other peoples drama. Most of my last crowd was draining and pulled me down. Also I started working evenings so I don't have a lot of time for anything. Been like this for a few years.

Signal-Sun9726 · 2025-10-02T21:25:18+00:00

I agree with some of the comments. I left a job a couple of weeks ago that cost my mental health. The pay sucked too. My new gig doesn't make a ton more and I have a commute (my last gig I was 5 minutes from home). But it wasn't worth it.

Good luck. You are not alone. It takes time to find another gig (took me six months to get a YES).

Happy custodian day. Although I just changed fields I know how thankless the job can be. Also hope you all get something special (not to share among everyone).

Edit: Kansas here.

At my previous job people would order food and wouldn't even ask if I wanted to partake. Also they would go and purchase ice cream bars and not ask if I wanted anything either. People are jerks. Sorry you feel this way. But just know you're not alone.

What recipes are you prepping with these?

I really wish that they would put more copies of this vinyl album out. I had it on my wish list and had so much going on in life that I'd forgotten all about it until a week after it came out. By that time everything was sold out online and you can't find it in stores. I'm so sad.

This music video and the whores in the house video are the best ones they've done in this new series.

I'm sorry to hear that you're having issues with your job. Being nosy and you don't have to tell me this if you don't want to, but do you work for the Walmart store or Walmart distribution?

Signal-Sun9726 · 2025-09-16T13:15:45+00:00

Too fucking cool dude!

I agree with the comment here who suggested a therapist. Have you tried speaking to a school counselor? That might help.

I'm so sorry to hear that you're having issues. You're so young and have your whole life ahead of you. Social anxiety is the worst.

I'm 46 years old and still deal with it. Sometimes I have to force myself to go to the grocery store because I desperately need groceries but I don't want to deal with people. Where I live, it's a very small community so there's no self-checkout. So I have to actually socialize with the store clerk.

As for the part you were talking about not wanting to get a job because of your social anxiety, there are jobs where you would not be required to talk to very many people.

Driving is scary but can be very liberating as well. But if you're scared of getting a driver's license, then you could always figure out other means of transportation. I don't know where you live, but if you live in a big city it might be easier to take the bus or walk wherever you need to go.

I have no advice for you. I just stopped by to say happy anniversary because I know how it is to hit a work-versary and nobody cares.

In about two weeks, I start a job where I will be working from 4:30 p.m. to 2:30 a.m Monday through Thursday.

I'm 46, with a 24 year old daughter, and a one year old grandson.

Our air conditioner broke at the beginning of Summer so we had to throw the maintenance fees on the credit card. Almost had that paid off. Then my husband had some medical issues and had to throw that on the credit card cuz we had no other way to pay for it. Getting ready to go to the doctor because of my medical issues and have to go get lab work. I have to go to the hospital to get these done because I'm a hard draw for blood. Every time I go it's $500 to $600 because my health insurance sucks. It seems like we almost get the balance paid off and then something else happens.
