Buffer Badge

If basic training taught me anything, it was to respect the custodial arts. The maintenance guys are stripping and relaxing the lobby in my office building. I bet that I am the only person in my office that has ever done this to a floor. Right now, they see a dusty, listless floor and are probably a little bit turned off by it. I see a new beginning. Soon, the shine will return and the hard work that went into it will go unnoticed. I noticed, though. I appreciate the work that went into returning the shine to that surface. I earned my buffer badge in the army. I am proud of it. I hope our maintenance guys are proud of the work they are doing in our lobby.
