Hew te Be a Janitor's Helper
A LMOST any one can be a janitor,
f"-;btit it requires rnre genius te be n
janitor's helper. Yeu must knew in
finitely mere tlinn n innlter, which i
plenty, nnd you must be Infinitely mere
willing, which Is net se much.
The first duty of the janitor's helptr
Is te sec Hint the janitor lins nothing te
de. He must llrst de nil the janitor"'
work and then lie may sit nreund and
listen te his employer's stories, pro
vided he Is net loe tired.
The janitor's helper must lenrn flint
his ilrst ilnty is te the janitor. If a
tenant should ask lilin te de anything,
lie must refer it te his boss.
If the tenant asks the boss te de
anything, the boss, of course, will refer
te the helper. If they provide each
ether with sutllelenti references, neither
of tliem need de anything. As a mut
ter of fact, neither of them de.
THE ether day I asked my janitor te
de n simple little chore for inc.
I asked htm ns mildly as I could ,
In a rather pathetic tone, if anything,
but he snld, "Ne, I can't de It for you.
My helper is off today.'"
, "Hut." I butted In rebuttal, "it
wouldn't take you very long, and I can't
wait until your helper remes bnck."
"Yeu cnn'l, ch?" snld he. "I gucs
j en rnn If I can. Whose helper Is he
anyway yours or ralncV"
I WASTED no mere words with him.
T ilerltleil then nnd then thnt there
reuld be no compromise in my nttitudr. I
Either he would de it or I would de It,
and since he wouldn't, I did.
That's the only way te treat Mich ,
people. .
There is a great deal mere than can
be Mild en the snbiect of "Hew te be n
Janitors Helper." ion may say II
