Reaching heights

Work is work. Whether it is cleaning the floors or scrubbing the walls or for that matter, scaling heights to wipe the ceiling, Sonu’s team too works with the same dedication. Cleaning comes by choice to Sonu who is in this field for around three years now. Once at work, even reaching up the domes at the Delhi International Airport did not seem a task to his team. In fact, they worked out a strategy to get the best results.

So, when the Airport facility head asked them to clean up all the 14 domes on the same day, three of them loaded with, R2 solution, doodle bug scrubber, cleaning pad and spray can stood up the ladder from morning to evening and cleaned it all. These domes were never cleaned before and the airport authorities were more than pleased to have them all cleaned without any disruption and in a day’s time! This was all because of Sonu’s teamwork and guidance, say his janitors.

Receiving appreciation for a job well done is definitely most rewarding and receiving certification, especially from the airport authorities, is all the more encouraging.
