Kevin the Janitor by Linda Liang

  Kevin is our janitor at MVL. He does a lot for our school on a daily basis. I had an interview with him and he answered the following questions.

 1.  How long have you worked at MVL?
I started my job nineteen years ago and kept work here until now.
2.  What is your longest working hour?
I sometimes stay after school for basketball games and clean up after games until nine or ten PM.
3.  Why have you kept you working here for so long instead of giving up?
My job can be different every day and I can work both in the school and out in the ball field. Working in a happy and dynamic school make things easier and I can still have chance to enjoy MVL games at break.  
4.  What do you want to suggest to an MVL student? 
I hope people can do good jobs in school as well, trying to keep the environment clean and tidy and take necessary responsibilities, which can also benefit to my job.
