I've been a janitor in the US.

I'll agree with his comment

Living in a double wide in BFE and commuting 40min of scenic roads to vacuum the regional hospital isn't that bad (I've done it). The instantanteos QoL was arguably better than my first tech job after I got my degree (but the tech job had better long term QoL because of savings and future earning potential).

That said, I'm surprised that more people working min-wage jobs while living in the high cost of living major metro area don't go postal. It's a far, far, far worse quality of life.

>Being a janitor is actually a step up from a lot of retail jobs,

It's really a matter of personal preference. All minimum wage jobs that aren't a good fit for any person suck. When you find something that's a good fit it's just a job. I hate customers so janitor was a way better fit for me.
