I got a job doing janitor work

Sooooo I got a job cleaning up offices at night
I get anxious trying to find the right places but I think it will be ok
It’s hot, painstaking work and I’m only getting $11 an hour
How ever I think I can save up some extra money for whatever

Absolutely true ---- I find it gives me a sense of purpose, seeing some things dirty made clean is a cleansing process

$11 an hour!!! What a rip off. In Australia you’d get double that to work as a cleaner. How do you survive? Is everything else cheap to compensate you?

Anyway - congratulations on the job no matter the pay. I hope you enjoy it and do well.

Congrats on the new job! I hope you like it. :slightly_smiling_face:

There’s nothing wrong with that, Ashton Kutcher first got a job as a janitor too. Sweeping. And I’m also getting a job as a utility Worker which is something similar. Good luck!

Congratulations!

I think 11 an hour if we’re given as being special needs and given extra consideration for our illness is possibly a fair wage. I would argue that with inflation is a little less then it used to be but still, its a job and there’s no snobbing someone getting one.

I’m not employed but I’m seriously considering what my options are. I have fairly expensive medicines so whatever I do I have to consult eventually with someone about how I survive rent+food+medicine on menial work that I might be able to do.

If I had to guess it could be possible with the right insurance, but I need to consult with a professional about that before I persue the ticket to work program

Congrats :smiley: night jobs are so the best jobs out there for me atm.

Wow I didn’t expect so many replies
Thank you kind folks for the support :slightly_smiling_face:
So far it feels like despite my best efforts I could still use improvement
I’ve only worked 2 days though
It’s not much fun but better than the dishwasher job I had
Work is broken down into phases, I cleaned two whole hospital floors all by myself last Friday
This includes my sweep dust wipe stock vacuum mop clean sterilize empty trash etc

Congrats @Cloudd3ad!
