Do something positive for your community... But don't expect to get paid well for it

Cleaning ambassador

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

I definitely feel I've helped make my city a cleaner, safer and friendlier place. I enjoy interacting with people I meet on the streets, and many of the business owners are nice too. Some days it is a pretty easy and straightforward job.

Cons

Low pay, poor safety practice during the pandemic, little to no benefits; lots of walking; constantly being out in the weather (especially during the winter and especially especially during the pandemic when a lot of businesses don't want us coming in there to warm up). Also, sooner or later you're going to have to clean up something gross!
