Why you should treat even the janitor with respect. - GoFuckYourself.com

Because you never know who he might become one day.

Stan Sigman, President & Chief Executive Officer of Cingular Wireless which just bought AT&T Wireless for $47 Billion, the largest all cash acquisition in corporate history, started his career in the telecom industry as a Janitor at Southwestern Bell.

Good for the Janitor!!
Great story!!

Janitors can make good money if they work for the right companies, I don't feel too sorry for most of them.

02-18-2004, 06:04 PM

fucking wow

twistyneck · 02-18-2004, 06:05 PM

I treat the people that actually do the work at any company with the most respect. Just about every suit I've ever met has been a worthless piece of shit that would have been far better off dead.

Heck yeh. I was just reading in the paper today, there is such a shortage of skilled auto mechanics in the automotive industry that the top guys are now commanding $120,000 a year.

and one day, no matter the amount of money, we will all die.

and that day is the day we find out who men really are.

from Winchester himself, to the richest ever, it doesnt take much to die alone and filthy rich.

One way to tell the true character of a person is by watching how they treat people they are getting nothing in return from.

NoCarrier · 02-18-2004, 06:23 PM

Stanley Spadowski: Life is like a mop. Sometimes life gets full of dirt and crud and hairballs and things and you gotta clean it out. You gotta stick it in here and rinse it off and start all over again. And sometimes life sticks to the floor so much that a mop, a mop, it's not good enough. You gotta get down there with like a toothbrush, you know, and you gotta really scrub 'cause you gotta get it off. But if that doesn't work, you can't give up. You gotta stand right up. You gotta run to a window and say, "These floors are dirty as hell, and I'm not gonna take it any more."

Stanley Spadowski: George, you know I was wondering, like if you were traveling through outer space, I mean like you're going real fast, like the speed of light, you know... hoooohhhhh... and all of a sudden you started screaming... aaaahhhhh aaaaahhhhh... Do you think your brain would blow up?
Bob: Guys, I'm trying to work... Do you mind?
Stanley Spadowski: I don't mind. Go right ahead... Do you mind, George?

It's a nice success story, but I don't like the rationale behind this thread.

You shouldn't treat people with respect because you're hoping to get something in return if they make it big. You should treat people with respect because you want their respect in return.

oooo, I likes dat version bettah...

but my philosophy is more along the simple karma lines...keep putting good shit out there and it will come back...

...as 'want their respect in return' is also self-serving at some level...

I always have respect for anyone willing to work.. myself I used to work for a guy doing floors.. after a few months I was the supervisor for his company.. after I year I owned my own floor cleaning company... then a year after that I sold it... I then got my dealers license for used cars.. and a year later I lost my ass

should have stuck with the Janitor thing, all this before I was 22.

I have spent the last few years screwing off kind of pissed off at the world and pissed off for losing a bunch of money being dumb. Least I learned a lesson, now I just have to motivate myself to get the ball going again..

SleazyDream · 02-18-2004, 09:35 PM

when in university i had a job as a security guard for a while in a downtown shopping mall. Lots of drunk drugged up natives would often cause problems and the guards had to handle it. I realized something, most of the natives knew they were doing something wrong and when you came up to them they usually stuck their hand out. The other guards would never shake their hands, and they got spat on and had lots of psycial problems with them. I always shook their hand. they never gave me any problems... (mind you i was a LOT bigger than most of them too, that might have had something to do with it as well)

myjah · 02-18-2004, 09:36 PM

doing it out of human decency isn't a bad idea either

my mom is a secretary for a doctors office. she does more work and knows more about whats going on in that place then everyone else. but somehow she is very near the lowest paid person on the totem pole. those doctors take home hundreds of thousands a year. and she makes less then $50k, i help her out now, but damn.

I was a janitor for 4 years before joining this biz. In fact, it's becuase of this biz I was able to leave that job. I actualy liked the work. It's the people looking down their noses at me and treating me like I was stupid and useless that was the hard part.

Meloman · 02-18-2004, 11:32 PM

I try to treat everyone with respect. My philosophy is Karma is a bitch and it'll come bite you on the ass when you least expect it.

So I more or less treat everyone with respect becaues I want the same in return, but also because I think if I don't, eventually I'll be in need and I won't get it cause I was a jerk before and deserve what I get.

beemk · 02-18-2004, 11:38 PM

i treat everyone with respect, until they give me any reason to treat them otherwise.
