Student Finds Restrooms In Union Cleaner Than Snyder Memorial

(Toledo, OH) Don Holderfeld says that he is just a "regular guy" who notices things. One of the things that he has noticed is a disparity between the cleanliness of the retrooms in Snyder Memorial in comparison with the Student Union.
"Yeah, sometimes both paper towel dispensers are not filled," he said, adjusting his surgical mask. "And the soap dispenser on the right hand sink has some black smudgy stuff on it."
Holderfeld said that he is worried about transmissible disease at Snyder Memorial.
"I think that they are not using the right disinfectant over there," he said of custodians. "It just doesn't smell the same as the Student Union."
The administration, said Holderfeld, needs to take action.
"What we really need is for the janitors at the Union to spread that same can-do spirit to the lackeys at Snyder Memorial," he said. "If it can be done at the Union, it can be done at Snyder."

Custodial worker Verna Williford disagreed with Holderfeld's assessment.
"That motherf***er came in here spouting off about a 'hierarchy of hygiene,'" she said. "I swear to God, if that crazy bastard comes around me ahain, I am going to shove this toilet brush up his ass."
