Campus Painters

Part of the campus maintenance extended workforce, the student painters on a min wage of US$2.65/hr were require to paint and upkeep the campus dormitories. The most enjoying and motivating assignment was when we were tasked to paint the female dormitory. Per campus rule, painters were required to shout deliberately softly “man on the hall” before entering the girls’ dormitory hallway. You bet the surprises we had encountered with the girls!

The roles consist of the supervisor (talker); roller and the trimmer (most difficult job):
