Thank you so much Gerren!

I’m 21 years old bro and i just became a janitor it’s not what I wanted in life but hey I’m here💯 I searched janitor tips and I scrolled passed a few but this video somehow caught my eye Goodlooks for the advice bro you motivated me to know things get greater later 🤝🏾

Been a custodian for 28 years! no stress. I work my own pace. Nobody hounds me. Some look down on me while they’re in their office stressed out. I’m walking down the hall humming and pushing my brute, with no care in the world. Was offered to be supervisor to custodians. Nope. I’m staying where I am. Plus I get mega overtime. I saved around $50,000 grand in 3 years alone. I wouldn’t change a thing in the world. I’m my own leader. I learned to deal with staff attitudes. Made my character stronger. Custodians are the foundation. Without us, there’s no trash pulled, shiny floors, etc. PROUD CUSTODIAN!

G!!!

100 percent true!

Definitely looking forward to knowing more about your transformation

Very inspiring! Thank you for sharing !

I just got a job as custodian I start next month

I have been a Janitor for 24 years and I love it!! You have your good and bad days, I can write a book about my job lol, the most challenging part of being a Janitor is working with lazy co workers/lazy supervisors and seeing how they can get away with murder and not doing anything, its not the job its the people, with that being said, I love what I do!

I love being a janitor

I’m quitting a good job with the city(water dept) to take a job as a janitor. Something I wanna do

I currently have a wfh job since the 19 but the client keeps changing things and it's draining my soul. I think I have an opportunity to do janitor work (got an interview for monday) and it's part time for a school and if I get it that would be a blessing. I just want something simple so I can pursue my art career on the side. I'm tired of working for these companies that take advantage of you that can't even pay my bills.

This was powerful my brother... from one janitorial service company owner to another. Hope to meet you one day. Blessings to you!

Great Perspective, love this, reframing 🙏

Everything you say speaks to me, God is great. I had just watched a video of yours from 3 years ago and you broke down my walls and this video gave me assurance and direction. Your words are coal in a snowstorm. I hope he gives me the chance to help you like you have helped me.

I was 17 when I quit life, I had a mother with Lyme disease, an absent father, a grandfather die, an aunt die, my parents divorce. I was taking ap classes I had a free ride to college. A paid off car. A girlfriend. I had friends. It all came crashing down at the same time. I dropped out of school senior year. For 7 years I was depressed. Suicidal. Stopped eating. Only left my bed to use the bathroom. Basically “Diogenes Syndrome”. I don’t know what you did, but your sincerity and you words broke through the walls around me giving me the chance to move forward. I don’t know how long this period of clarity will last but I thank you for giving it to me.

I'm going for it start next week to be a Mr. Miyagi

This is a great video man! I was working on sales and desperately wanted change after 13 years of the same thing everyday. My goal is building my music career as a Christian artist, but I had no time! My wife had quit her job at a nursing home a few years ago to start a solo house cleaning business. 6 months ago I quit my job and I joined her. It’s been quite the journey. A lot of the things you’d said. Wondering if she looked at me less now or others as well. Now I’m at the place where I’m happy and excited for the future. I have Fridays off from cleaning to focus on building my music career and I get to hang out with my wife all day. Thanks for your honesty!

Ive been a Janitor for over 10yrs now and I love it! My mental health has been great! I dont have bosses or managers hovering over me all the time in fact I hardly see them maybe once every few months I love it and plus I have more time with my children ❤

Did u have prior experince before becoming a janitor?

future janitor hopefully

I have worked in finance for almost 15 years. I feel nothing while I am there, it’s like I am on auto pilot and I feel dread every day I just accepted a job as a custodian and am so excited to start this part of my journey.

You're different from me! I'd rather raise baby boys to watch them grow into men. They learn from their Fathers. They can grow up to lift heavy things like furniture and appliances when time to move. Girls are weak and can't move heavy stuff! and the boys can grow up into awesome athletes. They can make their fathers very proud. Alot of girls like to chase boys and hang on the phone with strange boys which would make me worry all the time. So no thank you! I rather deal with my sons, than boy chasing daughters!

What state are you from I am looking for a janitorial job part time

Therapy means vulnerability and that's scary for the masses.

Amen, brother, I used to be a janitor. One day I was cleaning a bathroom when a college student asked me if I like cleaning bathrooms I said it pays the bills. I asked that same student if you have a car, and he said yes I asked him if you kept your car clean the student said yes. I said to the student you do the same thing I do the only difference is I get paid for cleaning the student said to me sir you are right.

Unrelated to to topic but please shape-up your beard

Thank you

Wow this hit home for me, thank you for the message. It is what it is needed.

Im a elementary school custodian for the past 13 years. I work my butt off because we are understaffed but we get it done! I feel like a beat piece of meat after my 9 to 10 hour shift but I do feel a feeling of accomplishment at the end of the day!

I needed this! Thank you! I have an interview as a service attendant cleaning buses on Monday! This gave me more insight on my decision.

It's much needed Gerren! Good for you, I am taking a solo trip to Paris soon! I need to hit the reset button!

Any advice on how to get my wife to let me do this?

Sounds like freedom bro

I just stumbled on your video. I'm new in Canada and having my first interview in few hours time for the role of a Janitor. Hopefully I get it 🤞

So did I. I was able to make the move financially and I'm happy I'm not bringing work home, I'm not constantly on call, and now I'm in the best shape in my life. But believe me it wasn't my first choice but I was stuck and didn't want to manage ppl anymore, and being a school custodian was an option for me to make that change. It was/still an adjustment for me when I i was in a position of authority to now a lowly janitor. But I'm working on myself to not care what other ppl think.

I was a construction manager and superintendent for many years, eventually had to leave from stress. My wife got a janitorial job and I started helping her, I must say it is a very satisfying trade, because it is a trade. Without janitors, life would be absolutely a disaster and you have all been in an unkept area from restroom to office space. Everyone cleans the house, but nobody stays late to clean the office! Nobody will change filters or mop up their mess, we need janitors, and they are.

I’m in my 10th year with the Army and currently deployed. As for my career, I’m ready to start fresh and decompress, even if it means beginning at an entry-level position

Love love love my job. Been 4 years neve been happier. I left my factory job now i clean love it

Thank you for the encouraging words1

If you know your chemicals and equipment very well, you can land good gigs. Just be on time, professional and get the job done. A lot of people look down on it like my parents did, but when they saw I was able to buy a 2020 car from it, they told me to just expand my business. I started out as a night janitor, thought it was going to be hell, but eventually I became my own boss. Way more money than when I was slaving as a construction worker and trying to blow up as a rapper/music producer. I also do window cleaning on the side. BIGGEST PERK!!!! I don't have to work weekends and spend more time with girl on Friday evenings.

Now this is a smart man, well done.

Is janitor a full time job or part time? What hours do a janitor work? I am looking at being one I would like more info

Currently a groundskeeper. (Basically outdoor custodian) I’ve worked in retail, warehouse and now grounds/maintenance. I’ve never had a job I’ve liked but I guess this is the one I like the best. I think everyone’s journey is different. For some the custodian job is the grass is always greener job that gets rid of their office work stress… for me it’s the feeling you described in the beginning of the video. I wake up every morning sad wondering if this is all I can ever have. If I’m even good enough for anything else. I’m absolutely depressed and miserable. The benefits are the job is that people leave me alone. I get a lot of time outside, I’m always moving and walk 20,000 steps a day. But these days I’m lagging behind. Tired of running. Tired of doing the same thing every day and barely making it with money. I too also have a college degree.

Thank you, Gerren, for sharing. I am also a custodian/janitor even though I went to college. The journey is wild and unpredictable. Who knows where life will take you next?

Love this idea ❤

Have you ever seen willy's wonderland with nick cage?

This is one of the channels that gave me the courage to start my UA-cam channel 6 months ago about self development. Now I have 413 subs and > 100 hours of watch time. I know it’s not comparable with others but I’m still proud I started because I’ve been learning so many lessonsÀ we that I couldn’t have learned without getting started in the 1st place.

I start next week as a custodian, I prayed and ask God what my purpose is. All my life I seem to struggle. All I ask God is to bless me with stability and joy. He opened a door for me as a custodian. It was destined for me to see your video bro. It just confirmed and encouraged me to see I'm in God's lane for the purpose He has for me. Keep me in prayer and thank you for this amazing message and testimony of your success of living in God's plan. God bless you and your loved ones.

This was absolutely amazing! Thank you for being real and transparent with us 🙏🏽 It was very much needed, as we only get to see the highlight reels of other peoples success - but it is very helpful to understand different journeys to success.
