It shouldn't even have been stressful today

Two communal cleans today. The first one was super dirty that it took me an hour to clear, let alone clean. So many dirty dishes and rubbish. I ran out of time to do the front entrance and the stairs before I had to do the second one.

Second one was much nicer. A group of Spanish kids and their teacher just moved into the building last night and were very polite while I cleaned the stairs But then I spent an hour running around the entire site looking for a hoover because nearly all of them down that end were missing. A nice coworker helped me look for one and said "not to panic with what you can't get done. Yes, there's a level of standard to be met but you're only human. It's not like they're short of staff anyway" (huh... Not what mean supervisor keeps telling me )

And even the Spanish teacher (whose English was impressive and her accent was lovely! ) said to me before she left "whenever you're next back cleaning here, the kids will help you. It's their mess after all!"

So there was some good things out of today... Even though it was stressful!

That coworker is right!

You're amazing, Emily!
