Custodian Anton Jennings cleans a water fountain in the first-floor hallway of the state Capitol in Sacramento, California, on March 18, 2020."We're important. We know it. I think after this dies down, the rest of the world will know, too," said Derrick Fields, 50, the head custodian at Medina Middle School in Columbus, Ohio.
"They deserve support. They deserve respect. They deserve leadership from the White House that is as competent and compassionate as they are," Saunders said."They deserve gloves and gowns, masks and swabs, respirators and ventilators so they can get the job done safely right now when we need that professionalism and expertise more than ever."
Other custodians in the district are helping to prepare meals for kids who qualify for free or reduced-price lunches, but they're doing it with a third of the workforce after the school district laid off a large chunk of the staff a few years ago.

Good they have enough 'privilege' to demand better conditions. They feel safe speaking up! Compared to farmworkers who feed every corner of the country who wouldn't dare demand any form of protection under fear of losing the pennies tossed at them for their backbreaking labor.
They should get hazard pay for what they do.keepit clean
I have been a homemaker for decades. I appreciate everyone who cleans! It's hard, neverending, yet very important work imo.
You are No. 1. Thank God kids aren’t in school. It would be constant scrubbing.
Your role in a pandemic may be the most essential. Godspeed.

After the virus is gone your expendable
mchslang21 Some custodians/ janitors are still expected to continue their job to fulfill the health requirements of hospitals, regardless of the employee’s families. It seems impossible to keep everyone safe while keeping operations like hospitals clean & functional.
That's absolutely right!
Nobody in a country like the US should be working in en environment where there is a possibility of infection without some form of basic PPE at this time. It’s a disgrace.
God bless these Angel's
Absolutely, you keep us clean
Please join me in acknowledging these real heroes, thanking them and applauding what they do for us! ThanksAMillion 🙏🏼
You are essential. Thank You.
I make it a point to shout out my appreciation to any delivery driver, grocery store worker, cleaning person, and postal worker I see these days. WeSeeTheHeroes
