Whats up with the Janitors this semester? Part 1

So for some reason, this semester the janitors have decided not to do their job. I'm not saying that i don't appreciate the custodial staff and what they do, because I do. I'm just saying, this semester, for some reason, they feel that they don't need to do even simple jobs like take out the trash. When push comes to shove, we are paying them to work, and I am seeing no work being done in my dorm.

It all started this semester for some reason. Last semester was fine. The janitors had no problem with us and we had no problem with them. We would even talk to each other. But this semester they came in our room and then started complaining about how dirty it was. That was quite insulting considering that they came into our room and told us was dirty. If I would have done that to their house, I would have been kicked out instantly. But we just let it slide.

Then they made us take everything we had out of the kitchen area. We had a recliner, a TV, a play station, and all sorts of stuff in the area. they were fine with it last semester. They never said anything abut it. But this semester, they just got mad and decided it had to go. So after a long battle with the janitors and RHA, we finally decided to take it all out. But all respect for the janitors were lost at that point.

Now the janitors have decided to take all the trash cans out of the halls except for one. We used to have four in our hall. Now we only have one. One trashcan is not enough for a hallway of people to share. The result has been piles of trash on and around the trash cans. We asked RHA about it, and they said that they had nothing to do with it but that they were just as upset. So how did the janitors respond to the trash buildup? Find out in part 2 of this article!
