Crazy Shower Crew

Last night shower crew was crazy. For some reason the guys in charge wanted to try a completely new way for us to work. About twenty new guys were assigned the shower crew job and added to the nine that already work. We are also using completely new chemicals and cleaning the entire bathroom area, which includes for showers, one urinal, two toilets, four sinks, and the slip proof floor. Each of us was assigned our one dorm to clean, except there's no way we had enough supplies for each of us to clean on our own. We had to show the officer how we should work because he couldn't figure it out. A lot of the other guards were laughing and rolling their eyes at the disorder.

I was asiigned to cell block - the best job because it only has two showers that are barely used and nothing else. It took me about thirty minutes to clean everything and mop the floor just to make it look more clean. When I finished, I went to the main corridor and the boss for the night asked me to clean another dorm because someone quit. It took almost an hour to clean that one and get it inspected by the boss. Because there was only one boss and sixteen dorms to check on, it took a long time for him to get to this one.

After finishing my second dorm, I went to wait in the main corridor with everyone else. Unlike most nights where we can go back to our dorms after we finish, we had to stay out until everything was inspected and passed. The sergeant was getting really aggravated over something, maybe the shower crew boss and new hires, and he kept hassling us over nothing. She screamed at Rabbit just for sitting down like we always do. Other guys kept getting called back to fix their work. I was told to go into a dorm with new guys and show them how to do it, then cleaned two showers while they cleaned the other two. We finished it up and went back to the hall to wait some more. I had an 8:30 class this morning and I didn't get back to my dorm until 3:45 AM.

Turns out two guys quit because the boss was being dumb. One of them was taken up to the front in handcuffs and threatened with a case. He decided to continue working instead of taking a case. The other guy quit for good and took a case with it. All the guards I've talked to since say that the boss was being very dumb. Unfortunately, the way we did it last night is the way we are cleaning from now on, so I guess I should get used to it. I'm sure it will run smoother as time goes on. I'm glad I was assigned the easy job!
