Newton County custodian describes daily duties at Administration Building
Summary
Sue Gregory, a custodian at the Newton County Administration Building, described her daily cleaning schedule, special projects and teamwork in brief remarks recorded in the meeting transcript.
Sue Gregory, custodian at the Newton County Administration Building, described her daily duties and two years of service in brief remarks recorded in the meeting transcript. "I first started out part time, and then I moved to full time," Gregory said, adding she works "a little bit with the public defender's office."
Gregory said her routine centers on restrooms and trash removal: "I come in and I'll clean all the restrooms. And then in the afternoons, I will pick up all the trash, make sure all the trash is picked up." She also assigns herself special projects such as cleaning stairwells and addressing accumulated messes.
The custodian described the role as part of a small workplace community and emphasized teamwork. "Working as a team, like I said, it's a community. And, we all just like to help each other," Gregory said. She noted that staff cover for one another when someone is absent and that unusual events — power outages, snow days, deliveries — break up routine work.
No formal actions, motions or votes were recorded in the transcript excerpts containing Gregory's remarks. The comments focus on everyday building maintenance, employee cooperation and the variety of tasks custodial staff handle at county facilities.
