BUILDING

RESPONSE

ADM

My building is not on the list. I am just commenting in general on what I see around campus.If you want building specific responses, say that up front.

ADM

I deal with Physical Plant during Homecoming daily. I think they do a great job. Homecoming is a vey big event and I feel that we get great services.

ADM

We need hot water in restrooms, and they can be kept a lot cleaner. As well as classroom and Office building.

ADM

As one who generally only goes to ADM and SVC I have generally been impressed with the quality of cleanliness and upkeep on grounds around ADM, especially with parking garage construction. Bathrooms are always clean, although sometimes very cold. Overall I am impressed with Physical Plant upkeep of facilities.

ADM

Sorry, I dont have too much experience directly with phsyical plant people, so have to be neutral

ADM

Chalkboards in LBR 252 and PMA need more frequent cleaning.

ADM

The heating and cooling systems in the ADM building are ancient. My office has a temperature spike every afternoon that ensures that I never wear long sleeves. Even in the dead of winter. I doubt theres anything you can do about this, but thought you should know.Also, the latest paint scheme for the ADM building is an eye-sore. Ive heard that its supposed to be faux-brick, but Ive never seen brick that was orange and purple. Im not sure this is what you meant when you asked about building appearance, but just in case...

ADM

I am in the UTC center so most of this does not apply to me.

ADM

We are not supported by the Main Campus Physical Plant personnel. Sorry to be of little assistance.

ADM

Thank you all!

ADM

I am in Davis Hall (St. Pete campus). I didnt see it on the list of buildings for the last question.

ADM

TVB building is not on your list.When services are rendered such as carpet cleaning, pest control...no one is notified that the work is going to be done, or has been done. This would be helpful communication to those who are charged with getting these tasks accomplished.

ADM

This was sent to St. Pete --our building is DAV

ADM

My experience with plant staff has generally been good. The janatorial staff in the building I have used most (Cooper) has always been friendly and helpful. They seem overwhelmed at times by student carelessness with restrooms and such. Some problems are structural--narrow staircases, the fact nonsmokers have to walk through smokers to get into buildings (at times, anyway).

ADM

WHY ARE MOST OF THE EMPLOYEES SO UNHAPPY

ADM

We should look at updating the outside of Alumni Bldg. Doing a great job with service

ADM

Staf are usually very helpful...the new buildings are nice, but many buildings are just old and they are showing their age.....but you all keep them decent looking..........

ADM

I would like to explain that classrooms and restrooms are clean and well stocked at the beginning of each day. However, trying to keep them maintained when the students create such a mess is your biggest challenge. I dont think the students take enough interest in cleaning up after themselves and this is not the fault of Physical Plant in any way.

ADM

Everything is just fine. The only thing I would like is shelves in my office, they have requested them to be put up but I just dont get them and being here for 12 years I think we shouldnt have to request for an order to be done just come around once every 3 months and ask if we the Admin. buldg. need anything and I mean every office. That is all...

ADM

While the restrooms are well-stocked 99f the time, they really take a beating during the day and are rarely "clean" by mid-day. By mid-afternoon they are a disaster. I know manpower is an issue, but perhaps a mid-day check would be appropriate. Our offices are rarely "comfortable" and in compensating with increased air-flow, they become quite noisy. Portable fans and heaters are a common sight. Ceiling fans would be a wonderful addition and should result in an overall cost-savings.

ADM

I work off campus in the UPC building.

ADM

I wish they could deodorize this bathroom. Also, we dont necessarily have to have HOT water, but WARM water to wash our hands with would really be nice. Using COLD water hurts.

ADM

We have the nicest people from Physical Plant maintaining our building. They are always courteous and professional.

ADM

Bushes need to be trimmed and maintained outside of the buildings. This will also decrease the number of bees and bugs around here.It is always cool in the building where I work.Grounds keepers need to be more careful while driving golf carts on the sidewalks. Slow down! Give the walker the right of way.

ADM

I requested for 6 boxes of university Catologs to be picked up for trash, no one ever came to pick them up.

ADM

The flag pole needs to be raised or moved because the palm trees now almost block the flag. Also, the colors of the Admin building look terribly ugly from the front. They do not go with the style of the building.

ADM

We are based off campus (UTC)in a leased building, so I dont think my input in this survey would be very helpful..Thank you,XXXX

ADM

THE RESTROOM FOR WOMEN IN ADM 1036 IS HORRIFIC AT TIMES. I HAVE NEVER BEEN IN A RESTROOM THAT SMELLS CONTINOUSLY. WHY IS IT THAT 1)THEY CAN NOT PUT SOME TYPE OF DEODORIZER IN THERE TO WORK CONTINUOSLY AND 2)SINCE IT SEEMS THAT SOME OF THESE WOMEN WERE BORN IN A BARN OR WITH OUTHOUSES, WHY CANT THE UNIVERSITY PROVIDE SEAT COVERS? ON A SCALE OF ONE TO TEN CONCERNING THIS PARTICULAR RESTROOM THAT I HAVE TO USE I WOULD GIVE IT A -3. HOPEFULL THIS SURVEY WILL NOT BE REPRESENTATIVE OF AN ACT IN FUTILITY. THANK YOU.

ADM

Greatest problem is with ladies washroom: no hot water, towels often not replaced or allowed to run out; soap often runs out (I have an extra bar weve used from time to time), and the metal can holding female waste products often falls off the wall.

ADM

Bayboro building in St. Pete

ADM

Some offices need new carpeting and paint.

ADM

CPR 103 is typically very cold

ADM

I think that Physical Plant is doing a terrific job. Also the XXXX who works at COPH MDC 56 is doing a terrific job for Physical PlantsThanks,XXXX

ADM

I am in the Health Sciences area and our Physical Plant group who maintains our facilities are wonderful!!! They are very conscientious, responsive and pleasant in the process. I amalso sure that they have a thankless job!

ADM

ADM

My comments refer to the USF St. Petersburg campus, in general, & the Florida Teachers Center & Davis Hall, in particular. Thank you for the opportunity to comment. Please forward appropriately.

ADM

Some of the sidewalk areas need to be re-thought.I would make the urban trails into sidewalks and get rid of all of those horrible looking chains.

ADM

I didnt choose one building because Ive had experiences in multiple buildings.

ADM

Im amazed that a campus this size looks as great as it usually does. Once in a while Ill run into a building or restroom that is not clean or is messy, but usually the staff does a fantastic job. The grounds are wonderfully beautiful. We have a bit of a temperature problem in our office, but we understand why. The groundskeepers and other personnel are courteous and helpful. Good work!

ADM

Plumbing fixtures in MDC4048 are in poor condition. The toilet paper is abysmal in texture and weight.

ADM

What I would like to see is the head of Phyical Plant do surveys with the different departments on what are we to do with the student records, test, examination, desk copies from different company,and all other sensitive materials that cannot be thrown into the paper bins. Please help find a solution for this problem or forward this to the President and let her know what our concerns are. The burn bags at this University should not be a department problem, It should be a University of South Florida problem. Its something wrong I think she would want to know just how personal student information is being disposed of. So the University will not be on television looking stupid. Sincerely, XXXX

ADM

No problems, thanks

ADM

I teach on Saturdays in Hammon Commons (HCL5, computer lab). This is perhaps not under the jurisdiction of USF but New College. That room has several pieces of broken furniture, is often dirty and unkempt, and has trash here and there that needs to be disposed of. Hammond Commons dining area is usually very dirty and messy on Saturday, and the restroom there definitely needs more attention. Please pass this message along to New College personnel if appropriate.Thanks,XXXX

ADM

HCL Sarasota

ADM

We are a grant located off campus at the University Professional Center. We do have need many times during the month to come over to the main campus...and I have noticed nothing but great surrounds both on the grounds and in the buildings. Keep up the great work.

ADM

Mens restroom in basement is never as clean as the restrooms upstairs. To use the restroom I go upstairs which is not convenient.For the last couple of days the urinal has been overflowing adding to the general stinky order and uncleaness.The reatroom could use better lighting.The second toilet cubicle is so small its practically useless.

ADM

The bathrooms are not always clean because they are used by the students. They are always clean by the next business day.

ADM

I am in the KORC building at the St. Pete campus. No reference to that building in the previous statement. Our labs here are often without paper towels for awhile. Most of the time, they get filled when we call and complain. That is my biggest complaint. And the fact that it is so cold in the buildings.

ADM

Wheres the CRI on this list? Is this only for Tampa campus?Also, it seems like theres no easy way to get anything done over here. Whenever I need something done it takes several calls back and forth, and nobody on Tampa campus knows anything that goes on down here. Its like were on an island in the middle of nowhere. We need an easier, more streamlined way to communicate with the Physical Plant. And it would be nice if somebody at the Physical Plant in Tampa at least knew the right contact down here in St. Pete.

ADM

Thank you for doing a great job!

ADM

Parking lots are never cleaned and are littered with broken class!!!!!!

ADM

Overall a good job by all. Thank you for your services.XXXX

ADM

Building options given on the above selection window do not include the Campus Activities Center ... CAC.

ADM

It would be nice if the University Police could get more of an immediate response from Physical Plant after normal working hours. Many times we will have an incident that needs your attention and the response we get from the "on-call" person is "cant it wait until morning?". If we thought it could wait until morning we wouldnt be calling your department.

ADM

I am talking about the HCL classrooms.

ADM

Im in USD. Its not on your list.

ADM

The building list does not have Sarasota buildings that I am commenting on listed. They are all Tampa buildings -- you might want to fix this.Anyway the buildings I am commenting on are PME and HCL. The responsiveness to problems in these buildings and the conditions I have had to work under in these buildings is totally unaccepatable and my complaints about these buildings, which began in August of 2003, have not yet been addressed yet. The physical plants method of dealing with my complaints has been to put them back on me stating such absurd things as I dont know how to use a thermostat!

ADM

I am slos commenting on SVC and MC as well as classroom in CPR, SOC and BEH.

ADM

i work in the st. petersburg campus and it is maintained very nicely. i also take classes.. and i have been impressed with the classrooms. the phy. plant staff here are great , curtious and through.. they are very prompt and so efficent. thank you mmiller...

ADM

I dont know the label of the building but it is COBA. The place is littered with ads some of which are of bad taste for a University. The stairs are usually dirty....I mentioned this in a previous survey but not seen any improvements. try it...drop a piece of paper on the stair and it may be safe for a week.

ADM

I was in DAvis Hall room 102. The computer is covered inchalk dust, everything else was pretty much OK.

ADM

The choice for bldg. does not inlcude PMC bldgs.

ADM

Im in SER. It is not included on the list.

ALC

This is in regard to your survey. We have had excellent service from the Grounds Dept., Alarm Shop, Maintenance etc. Everyone has been very professional and helpful. I would recommend the USF Physical Plant team to any Tampa Bay Community Business.XXXX

ALC

Thank you for asking our opinions.

ALC

Physical Plant does an excellent job of responding to our building needs. They are a pleasure to work with!

ALC

I want to compliment our custodian XXXX, who works in ALC. She is a very hard worker and does an EXCELLENT job at keeping the building maintained. I, however, am displeased with the new custodian XXXX, he makes me very uncomfortable as well as some of the other female staff I work with. One of my associates leaves her office when he goes in to dump her trash. I understand that he has been here for a VERY long time and seems to have some emotional dysfunction, but he makes alot of us feel very uneasy.

ALC

XXXX is wonderful; very professional and courteous. However, she mostly works in the other wing of our building. The person responsible for this wing is way too talkative, very slow, leaves the vacuum, and other tools of the trade in the middle of the hallway for hours at a time. I usually leave my office when he comes around to empty the wastebaskets because he starts talking and wont go away.

AOC

Generally, all looks really well. However, people smoke on the steps of the AOC building (lower level) and leave their stubs laying around, and it doesnt look like it ever gets swept or cleaned. It would be nice if it got cleaned up like other buildings (I know we are off in never never land...)thanks.

AOC

My "disagree" for the temperature question was due to being unable to properly regulate the rooms on the second floor of the building. Walls were built after the air ducts were installed so it is hard to regulate the rooms--they are either too cold or hot to suit people. We have adjusted--we are not really complaining.

AOC

USF is a smelly campus at times! Why? The staff and students leave the dumpster lids open. It would be great if chains could be attached that would allow the lids to open but NOT FLOP BACK. Thay way they couldnt be left open at all. Might be a bit inconvenient but it would make USF a more attractive place to be for those prospective students. Its usually the smelliest right where new students would have to pass--behind the Marshall Center on the walk from the parking garage and among the dorms where new students tour.The other thing that makes no sense on campus is something Im not too sure falls under physical plant, but you all might be able to direct it to the right management-types. Now, in addition to being a staff memeber Im also a part-time student who walks to class so Im sure of my facts here. Many, many students walk from the dorm area to the Education/Cooper Hall area. There USED TO BE a crosswalk between the Castor Hall/Argos area and the Behavioral Sciences building. Just recently this crosswalk was moved around the corner to point to green staff parking lot 7M AND the speed bumps were removed. Students who are trying to get to class on time will not walk 30 feet out of their way and 30 feet back again just to humor the crosswalk painters. THIS IS A DANGEROUS situation. There is no crosswalk and NO SPEED BUMPS where the student are OBVIOUSLY crossing. If you want to verify their migration pattern just check the lack of grass and sand tracked across the road where the crosswalk should be.

BEH

Our campus has a clean, well-maintained and well-groomed look. The new buildings, new walkways, and new landscaping of the last several years have really improved the campuss overall appearance.

BEH

When the trash baskets are emptied they are just put back somewhere in the room, most often just inside the door or on a chair. They should be put back where they were found. Also, although I have called and left notes on the door, the trash from BEH 210 is never picked up.

BEH

Thanks!!!!

BKS

My building is not listed, CRI

BSF

Our conference room is not supposed to be locked (BSF 221). There are signs on the doors saying not to lock it, but it frequently is locked during the night, one can only assume by the custodial personnel. It is a great inconvenience when it is locked, as only one lab on the floor has a key to it.

BSF

I dont know the difference between Service Center personnel and Physical Plant personnel. I interpreted PP personnel to be the ones that respond to work requests and maintain the building appearance (e.g., painters, A/C repair, light fixtures, etc.) and service personnel to be the ones that handle daily janitorial tasks. There have been instances where the latter responsibilities have not been kept up for several days in a row, although they are generally maintained properly.Temperatures in lab and office spaces at times seem to fluctuate independently of our controls. We also have a problem with intake of "problem" air into the lab spaces -- most notable is the cigarette smoke smell that comes into the lab but other outside smells also infiltrate at times. Solvent smells (from inside the building?) also occur but only rarely.

BSF

The restroom on the third floor must be checked out more periodically. Its commonto have some water leaking and/or lackof paper towels. The elevators of BSF building are also innot-so-good shape. They are not as cleanas they should be and this is a very negative aspect when we have visitors and prospective students walking around.

BSF

There is no reason to run the A/C at full power ALL the time. Its SO cold on the second floor of BSF that I have to wear a coat while I am inside!

BSF

I have had very good interaction with XXXX. He has responded ina timely amnner to all my needs. This may not aplly to physical Plant but you may relay this information to the cleaning crew! The department have requested a cleaning of the BSF 360 room a month ago and no response! My office was suppose to be clean 4 weeks ago and no response. I had to move into it as it was. carpet is disgusting!LSA 102 was also asked to be cleaned, And no response.These laboratories have been neglected for a long time because of the abscense of a director. They also require of the presence of the person incharge because there are strong magnets in the lab. I have offered to be present during the cleaning process to no avail! I am frustrated with the XXXX and newly arrived professor.

BSN

Temperature is always a problem, especially in classrooms. Almost always, the classrooms are frigid. The thermostats provide no control.The chalkboard erasers are often full of chalk dust, making it difficult to properly erase the board without getting a mouth and body full of chalk dust.Lighting in classrooms is problematic in that the podiums have no light switches. In small classrooms, it is tedious to walk back and forth to the wall switches in order to dim lights for a/v equipment projection. In large classrooms, it is nearly dysfunctional, as the wall switches are a long distance from the podium.Bathrooms are reasonably well maintained.Work requests are quickly taken, but sometimes not fully completed without numerous follow-ups.Campus buildings are improving in appearance (the paint on the library has made a world of difference -- thanks!). The BSN "bunker", though, is clearly in need of attention, such as power washing the stairs, landscaping the courtyards, etc. I hope that it doesnt fall into further disrepair as emphasis is given to the new addition to the building. The majority of activities are still taking place in the old bunker.

BSN

Also CIS Building

BSN

BSN has a number of problems with keeping it clean. This is mostly because it gets used over the week-end and we dont get cleaning services then. If the University wont fund cleaning services on the week-ends, then buildings should not be open to group meetings, etc.

BSN

Our crew does a great job. Thanks,XXXX

BSN

The classrooms are dirty. Chalkdust covers the front of the rooms. Trash cans not always emptied. The clocks are almost never right. The stairs are dirty. Entering from the parking lot gives a poor first impression for guests. I havent seen a less well kept government building. The only good thing about working in this building is that it is better than Cooper Hall.

BSN

Some classrooms in BSN are extremely cool at times, and the temperature can not be adjusted using the thermostats. However, I understand this is not currently under the control of Physical Plant. Also, fluorescent lights that are out are not always promptly replaced.

BSN

Many interior walls need repainting. Carpeting needs to be redone in almost all areas. BSN is in real need of refurbishing!

BSN

I was "VERY DISAPPOINTED" when I learned that physical plant will not be responsible for special handling bags. That is something that should be maintained by that area. Placing the responsibility on office personnel is absolutely ridiculous. Funding should be made available for Physical Plant to handle those materials.

BSN

Thank you and your staff for all your hard work!

BSN

its COLD!!!!

BSN

The bathrooms in BSN are ALWAYS dirty and smell of urine. I am a Business Major and I frequent the Business Building. The classrooms have overflowing garbages in them almost all of the time and the floors in BSN 1100 are in desperate need of cleaning.

BSN

I always see XXXX? (thin older african-american man) working very hard, and he always has a smile on his face and a warm hello. Physical Plant should be proud of such a good employee.

BSN

There are no trash cans in my classroom, and papers and junk just pile up; no one seems to ever collect them. Why not put a trash can in there?

BSN

Some classrooms in BSN have the movable, yet attached chairs with reclining back support. There are a very good design!

CHE

I teach in various buildings, so my comments covermore than one. this semester I am in chemistry and physics.

CHE

I only have had one request of the physical plant. In fall of 2003, I asked to have a faucet fixed in a classroom so that my CHM 2021 discussion group could do activities in there. It was never done. I went to the physical plant in person to fill out the form, so I know they got it. Whats up with that?????

CIS

CIS 2084 is the classroom I usually teach in. All of us (studnets and I) agree that the room is always unusually cold. I generally bring a jacket with me when I have to use the room. There is no way for us to adjust the temperature in the room.Also, the tissue roll in the mens toilet on the second floor occasionally runs out of tissue or the tissue does not come out of the holder.

CIS

Bathrooms are generally not clean, in fact sometimes filthy. It is just terrible.

CIS

Cleaning crew frequently leaves doors unlocked to offices and to office suite.

CIS

When we had full staff the grounds - & campus buildings were always tidy. Not the case anymore. Our people are spread out too thin. As far as the temp part - the CIS bldg has been a problem for maintenance from its creation. Good group to deal with!

CIS

We only get to pick one building to comment on? Or are we supposed to do the survey multiple times for different buildings?Neither of those seems terribly convenient -- and most of us are going to have experiences with multiple buildings on campus. What I would say about CIS is generally better than what Id say about CPR or FAO -- but worse than what Id say about EDU.

CIS

The survey here is too inflexible, let me explain a couple of answers...Some buildings look great; others nothing can save.Some normal work requests are done very quickly; others not so quickly.Some classrooms are generally comfortable, depending on the building and the time of year (CIS is pretty comfortable almost all of the time.) But thats not true in other buildings.

CIS

The day person is excellent. The night crew is not thorough, although--and this is the good news--the night crew members have stopped logging on to faculty computers and stealing personal possessions in recent months.

CIS

The day crew (especially XXXX) is GREAT, but the night crew does NOT clean, continues to leave doors unlocked and there are visable signs of more resting than working. The bathroom floors are NOT being swept or mopped and the toilets are not cleaned especially around the backs yet they pour smelly stuff in them and put the seats up so it looks like someone has cleaned.

CPH

In COPH room 2006 the studio class room the room is alway in the 50 to 60degrees(what ever the clillers are set for that day is the temperature in the room) This problem has been on going for a long time. every now and then the tempature is fine. XXXX broadcast eng 9999

CPH

XXXX is pleasant and responsive.

CPH

The low marks are for the facilities staff in our building(CPH). XXXX and XXXX are the most useless people I have ever worked with.

CPH

My comments reflect my thoughts campus-wide, not just in CPH.

CPH

Fantastic...no complain....honestly its the people who make it the way it is. Some fac and staff cant keep it clean so they complain sometimes

CPH

The 1038B computer lab in COPH has been uncomfortably warm this semester, which is ironic because the upstairs classrooms are generally uncomfortably cold.

CPR

I dont believe that the problem in CPR is the people who work here--at least not the ones who work here during the day. There just needs to be more of them, so they can do the "rounds" more frequently. This is an extremely heavily used building, and often the restrooms are a mess. The floor of the first floor mens room is always wet. Also, the electronic toilet flushers and sink faucets are ridiculous. Toilets flush with the slightest movement, and the sinks often wont give you water when you need it. You have to move your hands around trying to persuade it to be nice & let you have some water so you can wash or rinse your hands. Then maybe, if it decides to, it will give you a dribble. Or maybe it wont.

CPR

I understand that CPR is and old building, however, those of us that teach at night find the building dirty, the classrooms are extremely hot and the light situation is not the best.

CPR

This is an old building, so it is not easy to make it look good. The staff assigned to it do their best, I recognize that. But the rest rooms are dingy and sometimes out of paper towels, or one sink may be stopped up. I wish the building could be renovated. The elevators are my main complaint, as one or another is broken all too frequently.

CPR

Ive always felt that Cooper Hall is very poorly maintained, and I dont mean this as a criticism of the current maintenance staff. I believe the current staff does as good a job as it can with the very limited resources it has at its disposal. What kinds of things would make me, a professor, feel more comfortable in this work environment? First, I think the bathrooms could be better maintained throughout the day. The bathroom stalls might be clean in the morning, but its not very long before a student urinates on the toilet seats and then theres no place to go to the bathroom. I often walk over to the Education Building just to use a toilet that hasnt been urinated on.Second, it seems like the maintenance staff limits its work in the evening to cleaning the bathrooms and emptying the trash cans. Why not have the staff vacuum the hallway carpets at least twice a week and occasionally vaccuum our office carpets. Ive never had my office carpet vacuumed by a maintenance employees without my specifically asking that it be done. Finally, the stairways in Cooper Hall, especially the ones on either end of the building are usually filthy. To be honest, Ive been embarrassed at times to bring friends or family members into Cooper because of those stairways. I used to work as a janitor, and whenever we saw chewing gum stuck to the concrete, we pealed it off. Instead, here in Cooper it seems to be common to leave the chewing gum blotches on the stairs. In general, I consider Cooper Hall to be an unhealthy building because of the poor level of maintenance. I doubt that the ducts have been cleaned in the last several years, and with the high levels of dust and accumulated dirt, I wouldnt be surprised if I were currently working inside a health hazard. For all of these reasons, I think the administrators who make decisions about how to allocate resources should consider the effects that poorly maintained building have on the staff, faculty, and students who work in them. Poorly maintained buildings translates into low morale and concern about our health for many people here. Think of the boost in school pride if university officials showed proper stewardship for the physical environment here in Cooper Hall.

CPR

XXXX, our custodian, is wonderful. She is unfailingly cheerful, helpful, professional, and efficient. In my years of teaching at 4 universities, I have not met her equal. I would strongly recommend her for promotion to a management position, or for management training if it would be required for promotion. Numerous other faculty have made positive remarks about her in my hearing, and that is also a unique experience.My concerns about classroom/office comfort and lighting refer to extremes of temperature everywhere and to persistent lighting problems (flashing lights) in one classroom. As for cleanliness, the new boards are usually filthy by afternoon and erasers are often absent; if there, they seem ineffective.

CPR

The light has been blinking about for a month in CPR480. Could you replace a new one ?

CPR

XXXX, in Cooper, is most remarkable. Bathrooms areimmaculate. She is more than approachable and repondsimmediately to any problems (not as a result of her work,but rather students use of the facilities). She is thebest, and I dread the day when she chooses to move on, whereverthat is.

CPR

Any less than complimentary ratings are given due to lack of funding for needed improvements. They are not a reflection on the Physical Plant workers. I am speaking of classrooms that need paint and new carpeting, classrooms that have poor light sources, exteriors of buildings that are dated in architectural look and in need of new paint, etc. So far as I can see, workers do as much as they can possibly do with the resources they are given.

CPR

I would like to say that XXXX (I dont know her last name) who takes care of the housekeeping (restrooms) in Cooper Hall is not only an outstanding employee, but a wonderful person, too. She is usually the first person I see when I arrive on campus at 7AM, and I look forward to her lovely smile and friendly words. She is always available whenever I have needed help in any way. We need more people like her. She deserves a raise!XXXX, Adjunct Instructor, XXXX

CPR

Provide erasers in every classroom for the new bulletin boards; make sure each class has a lecturn(one that can fit on top of the desk is OK). Though the survey above covers CPR primarily, offices may be in other buildings. Check to see that the social sciences building ground floor has a regular insect maintenance plan to prevent insects(ants) from appearing, especially in the corridors.

CPR

Some class rooms are extremely cold, even at the time when the temperature outside is about 60 degrees. Is there any way to check the classrooms tempretures and adjust them as needed?That will be greatly appreciated.

CPR

Our custodian--XXXX--not only provides the cleaning services that her job requires, but she is a friendly, pleasant person--important attributes!

CPR

I work in Cooper Hall and my suggestion for the powers that be to commit themselves to a long term gradual rennovation of this building which would include cleaning out of the ducts and guts of the building. Also, painting is needed in the hallways and high use areas of the walls, trim. A thorough reworking of the bathrooms is also needed because the facilities are old. The inside building needs to be rennovated and cleaned. The health of everyone is the major issue here.

CPR

Groundskeepers and building "cleaners" are outstanding--friendly, consciencious, and serious about their work. These people deserve lots of recognition--any advice on how to be more supportive of these key members of the university team?

CPR

I would like to emphasize how wonderful XXXX, our custodian in CPR, is. (Im sorry: I dont know her last name.) She is efficient, cheerful, and extraordinarily professional. I know she has an enormous job in taking care of this building, but she makes it look easy. She, like all the custodians (and physical plant employees generally), deserves a raise.Thanks,XXXX, Dept. of English

CPR

The woman who does maintenance in Cooper Hall is very efficient and courteous and deserves special recognition.

CPR

Its no ones fault that the old buildings just dont look like much. And a building like CPR is so badly designed that nothing short of demolition could help it. Imagine two wide stairwells at either end, where there is little traffic, and a narrow one in the middle, where most of the traffic is. The newer ones such as CIS are really pretty attractive.There is an ongoing problem with temperature control in a lot of rooms in CPR. And, the furniture in the classrooms is execorable -- those plastic orange chairs are a disgrace and they are impossible to sit in for any length of time.

CPR

All of maintenance, grounds, and housekeeping that I know have always been pleasant, nice, personable, and interested in keeping Cooper Hall clean and in working order (it is an old building, ya know). And, many times, they have come to our rescue, especially when the exit light caught on fire and when the roof leaked because of all of the downpours that we have had. I have worked in this building since 1993 and physical plant has always been there for us. Thanks everyone!!!!

CRS

I rarely frequent the classrooms unless Im involved with a safety investigation/inquiry,so therefore, I have to remain neutral in that respect. Norman, who is the most frequent custodial staff in our bldg he does an excellent job trying to keep our area properly stocked and cleaned. He deserves a round of outstanding accolades/financial incentives for a job well done even with limited supplies.

Offices in Student Health Services annex (lower level of Marshall Center) EXTREMELY cold. Makes for a very uncomfortable working environment.

CTR

The time it took to receive utility bills this past year was excessive.

CUT

Need to vacuum offices once in a while. They get pretty dirty. Restrooms inside CUTR are disgusting. Need to mop and clean. Need air freshener also.

CUT

Seems that the floors are very, very rarely vacuumed. Restrooms are not maintained and stocked on a real regular basis.

CUT

More natural lighting and recyled/unbleached paper products would be great.

EDU

Most classrooms and offices are very dusty, and the carpet hasnt been vacuumed since the beginning of the academic year.

EDU

The floor in classroom EDU 150 where I have class on Wednesday evenings is filthy. I understand that it hasnt been cleaned for the entire spring semester!!

EDU

Im very disappointed that students dont do their part to keep the grounds, classrooms and restrooms cleaner. In 30 years here, it amazes me how nasty students can be. It would be wonderful if Oracles, cold drink cans and other trash were not left laying all over the place and if ladies/gentlemen could wipe after themselves in the restrooms. Theres no excuse!!! Given that USF cant afford staff to pick up and clean up after every student (and shouldnt have to) I think Physical Plant personnel do a great job! They have always been very attentive to my needs and I sincerely appreciate it.

Work in Tallahassee, Florida

I teach three classes a week in EDU 115. For the past three to four weeks we have had a number of problems. 1. The door to the stairwell on the east side has been locked basically all day, or maybe days on end. This is a problem for people bringing equipment from TSR (EDU 219) to the classroom. 2. Since April 12 there have been the remains of what may be a brunch (coffee pot, paper cups, utensils, lemonade dispenser, etc) on a table in the classroom. The table has been moved from the center of the room to the side. I do not know who is responsible to remove these things but the lemonade is taking on a life of its own. 3. Today for the first time the chairs were on top of the tables when we came in for class at 8am. If the survey had been done a month earlier I would have had no problems but the last month as been the worst in the years I have been using this classroom. My office is always cared for well, so I know some of this is not your problem, but if you could help I would appreciate it. Thanks. XXXX

EDU

There has been a dead fly stuck on the wall of the handicapped toilet in the ladies restroom, since December 2003. (EDU 141)The entrance door to the ladies room behind the Deans office does not have rubber padding and slams loudly everytime someone enters or exits. (EDU 112)

EDU

Sometimes the education building is too cold-- I also teach in other buildings that are poorly kept up-- HMS did not even have outside lights on when class was let out-- this happened only once but that was an uncomfortable and potentially dangerous situation. The older buildings (Cooper, HMS) are a mess-- they smell bad and I wonder about toxic mold and other harmful substances. All of this is not the fault of the physical plant services but maybe this comment will help.

EDU

I believe that there are not enough recycling recepticles placed around campus for students to get rid of their empty bottles or read newspapers. If there is anything that you are looking to imporve, please make this a priority.

EME

EME trailers are in bad shape. Doors at the bottom have corroded and are falling apart. Requests to fix them have been very slow in the making and only temporary fix has been made. Also A/C units put out soot all over the lab. Carpets are all coming part in the seams.

ENB

My building is even on your list (ENC)!!! I choose ENB above because it is the closest to me.Many physical plant workers are rude and inconsiderate when using and driving golf carts. They sometimes do not watch nor care for pedestrians. I have had to walk around carts parked on sidewalks because workers were stopped, taking a break and talking. They dont always drive on sidewalks why must they park on them to take a break?Im sure this is just a few people, most workers are nice. But some are very rude to faculty, staff and students.

ENB

First - this campus is beautiful! Just awesome - thanks so much for all your hard work.Now, some suggestions (since you asked! LOL): 1) Office trash bins need emptied more often.2) Is there some work that can be done either before 8am or after 5:30? When I am walking to ENB in the mornings through the Marshall Ctr., I am often trying to dodge the leaf blowers and lawn mowers. I do my best, but I still have had bits of grass and such blow into my eyes. Sometimes the personnel cut off their equipment to let people pass, but not often.3) The water used for watering the lawns and in the fountains smells like rotten eggs - LOL Sorry, but it does! What is up with that? Makes me wonder what is in that water - I hope its safe!4) Need recycle bins for cans and bottles put all over campus, including in our building. USF needs to recycle much more than we are doing! Anyway, thanks so much for asking and overall, great job! :O)

ENB

Overall Physical Plant does a good job. However, in ENB, the cleaning crew do not do a good job. Computer labs, office space and specially the stair case look filthy.

ENB

Paper supplies in Handicapped stalls are rarely stocked. Trash is not removed from hallways. Generally the physical plant staff does a credible job, but emergency work orders often do not receive priority. Lighting is very bad in some offices with fluorescent fixtures often not replaced. Since most USF staff spend more time at the office than at home - the atmosphere and environment they work in has a strong impact on their productivity.

ENB

the lavatories are a disgrace!!! besides being poorly outfitted, the level of cleanliness is, well, not even clean - its completely disgusting! There is no excuse for this other than a lack of cleaning personnel and/or a retraining of said personnel.the urinal on the second floor mens room has been broken for over a week and stinks to high heaven. I am hosting a meeting here this week and am embarresed to bring my sponsor and colleagues to campus...so I am NOT BRINGING THEM HERE!

ENB

By building ENC is not on the list! I selected ENB as that is the next building over and I worked in that building previously and still spend a considerable ammount there.

ENB

There is a lot of trash around the grounds and parking lots. It makes the University appear dirty and unkempt. I see a lot of custodians just sitting around during the day when I am sure there is plenty of work to do. My trash can only gets emptied once a week and I always have to call to have the recycle bins emptied.

ENB

The second floor mens bathroom in ENB is always out of towels and soap. Also, one of the urinals is broken and covered by a trash bag and it smells horrible.

ENB

The trash bins in the teaching labs and ENB108 are too small to accomodate daily trash supply, so they are often overflowing. Also, the large recycle bins next the the main elevator are an eyesore. They serve as a most unwelcoming greeting to our visitors. And is there truly a need for 3-4 bins in one place? The space they occupy would be better utilized by placing some permanant seating for people waiting on the elevator.

ENB

The bathroom facilities in ENB are not really ever clean. Especially in the first and second floor restrooms.

ENB

Thank you!

ENB

Very nice. Thank you

ENG

We are having an issue with our trash piling up for several days in our office (were in the Kopp building); it is picked up sporadically and sometimes there are no trash bags.

ENG

We have had continued problems with the bathrooms and water fountains on the third floor. We also seem to have a problem affording to have the floors cleaned in the labs and offices. Whats the point of spending 12 million renovating the building if we cant afford upkeep and maintenance?

ENG

1. White Boards should be cleaned on a regular schedule2. Lights in ENA 105 should be checked on a regular schedule.

ENG

The restrooms in Kopp building (ENG) are poorly stocked (out of paper towels) and maintained (the hand was sink often runs dry). The trash in office rooms is often not cleared, and the wrong types of bins have been supplied.

ENG

Nice job

ENG

The staff at Physical Plant deserve a lot of credit for doing an outstanding job. They are not often recognized because things go so smoothly and their work is transparent to the average user of facilities on campus. Keep up the great work and Thank you.

ENG

The ENR Building needs to have its grounds cleaned up. The engineering staff went over and cleaned up but it doesnt stay that way. The Kopp Building has bathrooms without running water in the sinks, and the ENC Buildings offices are rarely vacuumed.

ENX

EMA, EMB, EMC & ENX trailers near CUTRThe positive:Grounds around CUTR are well kept.Womens bathroom in ENX outside trailer is usually cleaned well each night.Usually good response when a call is made for a problem.Other general maintenance is good.People taking work management calls have been pleasant.The negative:Grounds around the trailers have had trash under the stairs and between trailers that havent been picked up for months. Sometimes leaves are blown to cover the trash under the stairs, but when the leaves blow away again, the trash remains visible and is an eye sore.Need bigger recycle bin for cans. Current small box overflows before it is emptied.Paper towels in ENX outside bathrooms are sometimes neglected.Mens room bathroom in outside ENX constantly has problems & is dirty (this may be more a problem of the users than Physical Plant, but still is a problem)Is there a way to fix the pile of dirt and sand that drains into the parking lot at the end of the sidewalk (also near the long newly created drive that goes up to the electric cars)? That dirt gets on peoples feet and then gets tracked into the trailers creating more of a mess, especially during rainy days.Carpets inside ENX trailers dont always appear to be vacuumed each night.Trailers are generally neglected due to apparent attitude that we are not as important as the buildings or are too remote or whatever. Many small departments and professors now have offices over here. It would be nice to have more attention to cleaning & grounds keeping. Especially when the departments have visitors from off-campus coming for meetings, etc.We appreciate the prompt response to problems that have been called in. And also, appreciate the courteous staff. Just would like a little more attention to the above situations.

FAH

While I understand the need to keep the University landscape looking good, I am very disturbed by the amount of noise produced by this function. When my fellow staff members and I are trying to have a pleasant lunch at one of the tables near FAH, it is frequently ruined by one or two groundskeepers and their extremely loud leaf blowers or other equipment. I see that they wear protective ear coverings when they use this equipment. Why is it that the rest of us are expected to live with it? Are there no alternatives? Is there no equipment that could be used instead that produce less noise?Thank you for the opportunity to comment.

FAH

Restrooms should be cleaned daily, not just restocked. This included cleaning the basins, toilets, floors and tiles. These are dirty on a daily basis and it is not clear if and when they are being cleaned. Offices should be swept/vaccuumed and dusted weekly. These dont appear to ever be done, not even once a year. Classrooms should have floors swept/vacuumed/washed daily. I dont see evidence that they are done more than once a year.

FAH

The practice rooms and offices are seldom cleaned.

FAH

work orders take quite a while before actions are taken.cleaning is not done on a regular basis. I have to "remind" Physical plant about my office.Personnel is usually helpful and courteous.

FAH

These buildings need a very good cleaning at least once a month. The staircase banisters are so dirty, you cant put your hands on them or would want to. The bathrooms: all toliets need cleaning in and out; the stall walls and doors need to be wiped down once a month; paper towels need to be checked everyday - I have noticed no paper towels in the ladies rooms on several occasions during this year; they all need deodorizers. Classrooms are dirty, practice rooms are dirty, carpets should be vacuumed without it being asked for. The recycle large green bins need to be put at the curb at night so they are available to be filled during the day. They too are filthy and are horrible to touch.thank you for listening, XXXX

FAO

I believe that the grounds of this institution are some of the best kept anywhere. I have visited several institutions both instate and out and brag about our people and the pride they take in their work.We are having regular problems with having appropriate supplies in the restrooms and have to call more often that I believe should be necessary but considering the limited budget, Physical Plant is doing a very good job.

FAO

The large recyle bins in the hallway are unsightly. Cant they be kept on the bottom level where there is less traffic?The air quality in FAO is questionable. Im always congested in this building. People often ask me if I have a cold.The staff that clean the 100 level womens bathroom is very good. It always looks fresh and clean in the morning. Thanks.The PP personnel Ive come in contact with are friendly and skillful and theyre quick to respond to requests.

FAO

Carpets are NEVER vacuumed. Waste baskets are rarely put back in the rooms in the same place. Nothing is ever dusted. Windows are never cleaned. Bushes outside are only trimmed every other month or so. Grass dies from lack of attention. Weeds grow rampant. The building inside and out looks terrible.

FAO

Why not ask about office cleaning ? Heres my addition:Offices are generally clean: Strongly Disagree. And thats where the rubber hits the road for many of us.

FAO

My office has not be vaccumed or cleaned by USF personnel in four years. It is a continually struggle to have regular trash pickup and our hallways smell of mold and meldew.

FAO

HiI think you all do a great job. Our womens bathroom on the 2nd floor does smell a bit. I think it must be the drain? Sometimes tables in the classrooms/computer lab have some stickiness on them. Otherwise, I would like to be informed as to how the process works as far as getting someone out to my office to clean and does it cost my department anything. I just like to be informed. I guess I will ask our administrative staff about that. Thanks so much for all you do.pen* (XXXX)

FAO

I know that whenever I call in a problem, it is taken care of very quickly. I appreciate that very much.The ground floor entrance to our building has been having more attention paid to it and is looking good.But we still need that ashtray outside our front door. It was promised for last week or the week before. There are a lot of cigarette butts lining the sidewalk.We also have active ant mounds by the front sidewalk. I cant tell if anything has been done about them or not.Thanks for all the good work you do.

FPC

You do a great job!

FPC

I have found the OPM staff generally courteous, forthright and prompt in their attention to details. Thanks for all your efforts.

FPC

Thanks!

HMS

Sometimes the building steps are not so clean.

HMS

With the addition of the Burger King near our building there has been an increase in garbage nearby. The outside appearance of our building could use a facelift with some flowering plants and nicer plant beds (similar to the ADM building area).

HMS

The grounds are great. Most buildings are great. HMS though, is a wreck. The elevator has been malfunctioning for years and years (It was remodeled but it still has consistent operating problems and is perhaps the slowest elevator I have ever been on.) It takes eons for discarded furniture and the like to be removed from the Physical Plant, hence the hallways always have random junk scattered in them. Check out the bathrooms on the 2nd through 4th floors. They are definitely due for a remodeling from the decrepid ceiling down to the floors.Its actually embarassing for the people who work here to bring people in for meetings. Note: The woman who cleans the bathrooms does a good job despite their old, really gross condition.

HMS

Comments true for Chemistry building and Cooper as well

HMS

Work requests are not always performed as requested. For example, I order teal carpet for my office and got dark blue withou any notice or explanation. Also, I requested the windows to be washed, which they were, but the tracks of the windows were not cleaned although they had dust and debry in them.

ITS

The grounds workers are usually very courtesy, always making sure not to blow dirt on our clothes. However, the personnel that travel around the campus on the club cars are often very inconsiderate.On many occasions over the past almost 3 years that Ive been on the main campus, Ive experienced club cars zooming passed me. And they usually do not yield the right of way to pedestrians. I usually have to step off the side walk, because they dont even slow down. Each time this has occurred, the club car has read, "Physical Plant".I know Im not the only person whos annoyed with your speed-demon drivers. Ive heard others in my department make similar comments.

LIB

I find that the bathrooms, by the end of the day are dirty and we lack papertowels and toilet paper in some of the toilet areas. I have also found, that if one works weekends, trying to obtain a person from physical plant for an emergency is near in possible. I have had men reporting overflowing or running water that cant be stopped in the mens rooms. I have reported problems of this sort in the am on a Sat. to the wkend #, leaving a message but wonder if anyone gets it before Mon.?

LIB

USF staff do a great job. Thank you.

LIF

downstairs doors in SCA are often left open afterhours because venting system prevents closureit truly is not necesssary to spend so much time plucking epiphytes out of the branches of trees and ferns-- these organisms do NOT harm the host plant! your gardeners should consult with faculty before wasting efforts

LIF

I think the Physical Plant staff are super heroes! How such a small staff can handle the problems on a campus this large is a minor miracle. After working on staff at the University of Florida and Florida Atlantic University and seeing how slow some university systems are, I am impressed hourly on how so much is accomplished by only a few. XXXX

LRC

We have had to repeatedly summon a physical plant employee to deal with the COLD temperature in this building (especially on the 2nd floor). We are often treated as if we are too sensitive to what the employee thinks is an OK temperature. Is there a reason why we cannot regulate the temperature here (supposedly it is controlled off campus)? We have also had to repeatedly ask for someone to be sent out to deal with a barely flushing toilet.

LRC

Groundsmen and cleaning staff are always polite and friendly! They do a great job!

LSA

Why are floors not taken care of, at least swept of dirt and dust?Bugs and cobwebs exist for long periods of time on the floors of LSA. Bathroom floors are not swept or washed. Even the newly renovated bathrooms show no evidence of a broom or mop cleaning the floor.

MDA

I am responding for the USF Medical Clinic. We have an ongoing problem with the temperature in various parts of the clinic being either too cold or too hot, but I believe its related to the zoning/system.Being a clinical setting, our needs for housekeeping are greater than in an office setting. Overall, they do a good job but frequently are short staffed due to illness, turnover, etc. which does create issues in the clinic.

MDC

We never receive an invoice or statement showing what the charges were for P Plant services! We need to know what we are being charged!!

MDC

I think overall the Physical Plant maintenance personnel do a fantastic job. They are always courteous and quick to respond to a request.Perhaps the students and staff could start an adopt a tree program, where we could plant flowers around a specific tree or group of trees and maintain the flowers seasonally.The ladies restrooms by the Cafe at the College of Medicine appear to have hot running water in the commodes. The sink faucets do not work properly (ie: cold water is low volume and hot is high volume).Many thanks for requesting my opinion.XXXXComparative Medicine

MDC

Restrooms have ants on the floor and often smell bad.

MDC

Building has a noticeable moldy smell especially in carpeted areas and occasionally elsewhere. The amount of mold is enough to cause allergy symptoms.

MDC

Physical Plant personnel in this building are very professional, very friendly and helpful and do an outstanding job. They are a real asset to this university and improve the quality of life on this campus.

MDC

MDC lab floors are VERY DIRTY ALL THE TIME. They only mop when I send in a request. They need to routinely mop once a week like they used to. They night crew has been very slack for the past few years and I have called the manager several times and nothing has changed. They day cleaning people keep the area very nice, but of course they cant mop our lab when we are here.WE have constant ant problems and have to call for spraying all once a month.The bathrooms are very clean, but they never have any sanitary napkins in the machines and I have to hunt from floor to floor in a emergency.Thank you for inquiring and giving us the chance for feed back.

MDC

There was a time in the history of the health sciences center that office maintenance was proactively handled...lighting, air temperature/quality, cleanliness, wear & tear...all these things were properly repaired/replaced/cleaned prior to problems arising. Now, issues are addressed only if requested by office staff and then only at a minimum level of quality. Its sad. The campus grounds are beautifully landscaped and maintianed. The same level of pride and attention to detail should be applied to building maintenance. Also, the quality of the restroom products has seriously deteriorated. It takes twice the amount of paper towels to dry ones hands as it used to and the toilet paper feels like sandpaper.

MDC

In terms of bathrooms, many are very very clean. The exception is the 4th floor in the basic science building - this issue is not really the people who clean - the issue is more with the people who use it!

MDC

Some special requests take forever to be resolved. I realize the FAST system is not exactly fast, but months of waiting is not acceptable. It would also be great if bathroom doors could be closed prior to the start of the next business day.

MDC

Support staff in this area have been excellent. Floors have been waxed regularly in the labs, bathrooms always clean, trash emptied every night. The breezeways in the building are even cleaned regularly. An outstanding job by all.

MDC

1. Floors in labs are NOT clean. Theres a real need for sweeping and mopping. 2. Carpets in offices should be vacuumed.3. Ants have been a problem. Recurrent calls have been placed for treatment.4. WATER FOUNTAINS--- PLEASE pay special attention to this one! A greenish build-up around the water dispenser can be observed in the water fountains. This is a potential health hazard.5. Physical plant personnel assigned to our building is always willing to provide assistance.

MDC

I have never experienced anything that could be considered "timely" in relation to Physical Plant. Maintenence is especially worthless. I watched as it took 5 Physical Plant employees 3 days to replace a small, exterior sign. The bathroom closest to my office has now been closed for 2 days because of clogeed urinal drains. The list goes on and on.Housekeeping and grounds both do, in general, a good job. Housekeeping in particular seems to go beyond what is required on a fairly regular basis.

MDC

Restrooms are clean, but could be cleaner. Sometimes out of soap more than 1 day.Previous problem with one cleaning staff member using my office & phone for personal use; direct confrontation did not stop problem; complaint had to escalate for it to stop - isolated incident, but illustrated incredibly unprofessional behavior.Electrician Curt is especially good at his job; very thorough & pro-active -- goes the extra mile.The air conditioning situation in this building is terrible -- hot & cold spots -- long time problem with no solution (apparently). Bring in an outside consultant for solution?Asbestos is still visible in the Library atrium area. Shouldnt this be removed?

MDC

Although, I have complained about the air being too cold, and the staff has attempted to fix it, it is quite impossible if the staff does not have access to proper equipment to replace items because it is old or does not exist. The toilet paper in the restrooms are very hard and really shouldnt be used for such purposes.

MDC

Does Housekeeping fall under the aegis of Physical Plant? The stairwells in MDC are cleaned way too infrequently. The mens bathroom (3048) is not kept in clean condition. Physical plant came through the offices and labs about 16 years ago and removed 1/2 the ballasts from the fluorescent lights. This was to save electricity (!). How much did it cost to disconnect the ballasts?? As a result, most labs in the old section of MDC do not have adequate lighting.

MDC

Optometrists and lighting specialists have stated that florescent lighting is the worst lighting that can beused anywhere. Incandescent and Halogen arethe preferred lighting. Florescent lighting isharmful to the eyes and skin.

MDC

Room temperatures in MDC vary drastically one day from the next.

MDC

Your staff do a great job with little recognition. Thank you!

MDL

Hank and Carl often service requests in MDL and they are A+ Tops!

MDN

thank you so much for your quick response!!!

MDN

Stairways need to be cleaned more often.

MDN

Offices and classrooms are too cold and most people wear jackets all day in the MDN building, even in the summer months.

MDO

The weeding of flower beds and trimming of trees seem to not be done as often around our building as conpared to others on campus. Otherwise, I feel that you guys do a prety good job keeping the campus looking pretty good. Keep up the good work!

MDT

Ive only been with the University a few months and so far all myrequests were completed in a timely manner. Thanks for all your help!

MGX

I do not agree that a work order should be submitted in order for the bathrooms and buildings to be cleaned. It has been better recently, but in the past the trash was taken out every other day and that was it.

MHC

I dont understand why leaves are blown from the sidewalks. It takes only about a half a day for them all to end up back on the sidewalks. It seems a waste of labor hours to have people blowing leaves around and not picking any up. If they just would pick up the leaves instead, they wouldnt have to clean the same areas as often.The machines also contribute to polluting our environment, both through particulate exhaust and noise.MHC building is often too cold.

MHC

Little things like getting new keys, having an office vacuumed, etc are frustrating because they take so long and, re: keys, have taken several trips to finally get it right.

MHC

In terms of the "good appearance" of the campus buildings, I disagreed not because of anything that physical plant staff do wrong, but because they were just built as somewhat unattractive buildings.

MHC

The Housekeeper who works in my area is a very pleasant, nice person.

MHC

As far as the de la Parte Institute Research Library is concerned, physical plant personnel are wonderful. They have been able to accommodate all our "out of the ordinary" requests in a timely fashion, hitting deadlines and finishing projects right each time. They are always courteous and helpful in resolving a maintenance or building problem. If they have a better solution, they tell us about it and, in general, try to make our lives easier, safer, and more comfortable.And for the survey, you might want to change "Classrooms are generally clean" to "Classrooms and offices are generally clean", since we do not have a lot of classrooms in the library but our offices are in good shape, thanks to physical plant.We think they are wonderful.

MHC

We continue to have a problem with housekeeping services. A few moths ago, I contacted both housekeeping managers at FMHI and informed them that we have insufficient cleaning in our area. They stated that the evening crew picks up the overflow. I told them we have never had an evening crew in our area. Said they would check out and get back with me--still waiting to hear from them. Sometimes we only have trash picked up once a week/twice at the most. (Im only referring to the housekeeping service center managers when referring to unresponsive to our departments inquiry.) Light bulbs, minor repairs, etc. are performed in a timely, professional manner. Thanks. XXXX

MHC

Ive worked around campus for 20 years, and the personnel who clean FMHI are some of the best ever! Thanks for all your hard work and friendliness.

MHC

The lighting in the rooms used for classes is less than adequate. If it is bright, the light is glaring. Or in some it is just not bright enough to see well since many of the rooms have low lighting from the days when they were used as social rooms or mental health areas. Also, the switching is difficult. We use a lot of AV in the fronts of the rooms and can not turn off the front lights. It is either the left or the right side or some in the front and some in the back. It makes it difficult for our students to see the AV program and take notes - it either has to be too bright or too dark. Also, the flourescent tubes are all different tones which makes some offices have better lighting than others. Consistency in lighting would help.Thank you.

MHC

More attention needs to be given to the landscaping and entryways of buildings throughout campus. This is where visitors form their first impressions, and shabby walkways and untended plantings are not acceptable for a world-class university.

MHC

Maintenance folks carry the old "good ol-boys" attitude. Also, I have seen 3-4 maintenance people standing around to fix an exit sign.

MHH

Our building attendant is named XXXX..He is highly professional and our bathrooms, have NEVER looked better.........He cleans circles around the cleaning "women" we have had in the past.....He is also courteous and efficient.

MHH

We must frequently ask that Physical Plant staff empty recycling bins, offices are not well cleaned, windows are not cleaned unless requested and paper towel and soap dispensers are often empty or not set up correctly so paper towels are not on rollers and cannot be accessed. Carpeted floors are not cleaned well at all. An exterior door on the front of MHH has had a faulty crash bar latch which does not close securely for more than three years, and Physical Plant has not made a long-term repair. They clean and spray the lock which improves the function for a few weeks, then the problem returns. This is a major security issue!We recently had a situation in front of the building in which a Physical Plant person allegedly threatened another person with a knife and USF Police were called.

MHH

I do not specifically submit work requests, but response to comments seems very timely. Also, Id like the ability to comment on different buildings, since my classes are held throughout campus.

MHH

AC/Heat for the MHH building continues to be an ongoing problem - the office manager needs more control of the thermostats as the temperature changes hour by hour.

MHH

bathroom in MHH116 needs remodeling. outside patio area floors and walls are stained and cobwebs are everywhere - No one ever dusts anything.

MHJ

Staff is friendly, courteous, and helpful.

MSL

I work in a lab and do not have any comments on the classrooms. I have not had an emergency request.

MSL

Generally, I think our building is kept up as well as an old building can be. I do wish carpeted areas (in hallways and offices) were vacuumed more.We have a faulty soap dispenser in the upstairs Ladies room that makes quite a mess in the sink area.

MSL

Temperature controls w/in the COT modular trailers is severely inadequate. Differences of several degrees from trailer to trailer or even from side to side of the same trailer are common. Physical plant is rediculously incapable of proper notice for scheduled maintenance of systems such as AC. Notice of more than one day is necessary to properly shut down laboratories, experiments, and projects. For environmentally sensitive work, notice of at least a week is required. This obviously doesnt pertain to unscheduled outages beyond the control of staff.

MSL

The termination of our long-time friend, XXXX, was shocking and disappointing. My floor has not had consistent care since, though XXXX and XXXX are both very good (no, XXXX, who was with us for a while, was outstanding!) The relatively recent hire of the custodial "supervisor" was definitely not an improvement! On his apparent power trip, he destroyed morale and, when he has had to fill in (after he fired XXXX), it is obvious that he is not as conscientious about cleaning as the individuals that he supervises.

MSL

Bathrooms are old and look dirty, but probably are very clean.

MSL

Response is only for MSL building.Im including all areas alound the building for campus grounds, some areas may not be Phys Plant responsibilities. I am unfamiliar with the classrooms.

MSL

Temperature control in office and lab areas of MSL is horrendus. Areas are either freezing or too hot to work comfortably. Workers have to use space heaters under their desks in some areas to remain reasonable comfortable. Either balancing the A/C system is not yet completed or needs to be redone.Have also requested in the past that chemical treatment of the lawn around MSL be halted. Every year we end up killing baby birds because the parents feed their young the chemical laced insects that survive this treatment. There is also direct run-off into the bay of pesticides and nutrients. This is not a good precedent for a University to be setting.Thanks!

I particularly want to thank you for the fine services provided by your Technical Services staff. They are truly indispensible.

OPM

Sarasota campus is generally well maintained.

PCD

ENA, where I teach, has poor lighting, no wastebaskets, and is not exceptionally tidy. There are also occasionally AC problems.

PCD

Our hallways in the building could be swept clean of dust bunnies. Its not professional to show someone the building and see dust and dirt slipping across the baseboards. Floors could be swept more like nightly and window sills are always dirty.

PCD

Not all classrooms have waste receptacles, which sometimes causes paper and other trash to be left on tables/desks. Offices and classrooms could use more regular vaccuuming. Apart from that, I am very satisfied with the service.

PCD

Spring, Summer, and Fall is always cold.

PCD

4-45550This order was not filled as requested. When I called PP to inquire at 11:50PM, they had no record of the request.

PCD

The inside of the building is fility. We keep complaining, but just get excuses that you are understaffed. The air quality gets worse and worse as the building ages, making it difficult for those with asthma/allergies. Yesterday the main staircase had piles of dust and hair. XXXX requested it be cleaned, and I assume it will eventually, but we have to specifically request that rooms be cleaned. They arent routinely.

PCD

Cleaning is a definite issue. We have a new building and carpets are stained in clinical areas. Difficult to wipe down spiders etc. I dont think you have anything to do with this- night crews are not responsible.You have been exceptionally responsive and helpful.THanks for all you do.

PCD

The stairwells could be cleaner looking - cobwebs are noticeable and the stairs could be swept on a regular basis.On the first floor in audiology clinic - again cobwebs are seen in the hallways.I havent noticed an ant problem in the clinic - thanks for taking care of that.Some of the clinic rooms still tend to be too cool. I supervise pediatric audiology clinic and the clinic rooms are just a bit too cool for the patients to sit in for too long. My office is a bit cool alos.

PED

The survey is confusing. The descriptors do not line uf with the correct collumns. The first two questions deal with the university as a whole so I continued to respond based on the university as a whole and then the last question asked for which building I was commenting. Very confusing. I do not think the data you get from this will be very valid given the above. I responded to all question as the overall university.

PHY

Please stop sprinklers in pouring rain.Offices are left unlocked after cleaning, no matter how many times we request not to do so. Is there any way you dont mow near classrooms during classes?

PSB

The planter boxes are completely bare in front of parking. They look absolutely awful.Not enough flowers and trees on campus.

PSB

Sometimes we dont have any one show up to clean, even tho we are supposed to have service 5 days a week. The Park and Ride Lot needs some work done on it. Lots of ants around, sidewalks arent trimmed, branches laying around and we could use a crosswalk on the west end. Some areas of the campus look great, others areas could use improvement. Maybe an occassional tour of the areas that you have contracts on, so you can see whats being done or what isnt.

RAR

the staff is friendly and the service is professional. thanks, we appreciate you all

REC

Restrooms seem to always be dirty.

REC

The evening crew at the Campus Rec Center does an outstanding jodkeeping the center clean.

RKA

building is moldy and decaying

SCA

(1) Im sorry that it was necessary to terminate the services of the painters becasue they were able to cover up the marks on walls made by inconsiderate persons. Unfortunately because of these persons theinside of SCA is not as attractive looking as it once was.(2) Work maintainance folks (9999) are terrific helpers, as are the persons on Team I.XXXX

SCA

Sprinklers should run earlier in the morning.And it is most of the time too cold in SCA floor 2.

SCA

Most of the Physical Plant team Ive met have been very courteous and professional. Some stand out above the rest. XXXX"the Plumber" XXXX and XXXX the A/C guy come to mind first. They make thier presence know and are always willing to jump on a problem. There are others, but I dont know thier names. Thank you!!

SCA

My office is freezing because I share a thermostat over which I have no control, and the cold air comes down right on top of my head. The day guys are a great group.

SCA

USF Physical Plant staff who I have interacted with have all been excellent - very professional, helpful, and pleasant to work around. They keep this place running smoothly and the grounds looking beautiful! Great job!On the other hand, contract night cleaning crew in SCA have been an ongoing problem. Theft of personal belongings and money from offices, disturbance of items on desktops and in drawers, unauthorized use of telephones, computers, and offices (once came to work in the morning to find night crew persons meal trash and utensils on faculty members desk!) had become an unacceptable problem. We have since required that they not enter faculty and staff offices after hours.

SCA

The sprinklers at the rear of the SCA building need adjusting-they water the parking lot and rain on people entering the building from the parking lot.

SHS

cold offices!

SOC

Our faculty offices are never cleaned in the SOC building!there is inadequate lighting in the classrooms.

SOC

Ive noticed this semester that trash will lay around the back (parking lot) entrace to SOC for a week or more. Im sympathetic because I come in on Monday and am distressed at all the trash thats somehow appeared over the week-end. However, it will be there for a long time.I dont know what to tell you about the physical condition of SOC. Its generally clean, but its difficult to improve the aesthetics of an old, fundamentally worn out building. And I dread the summer coming with our inadequate air conditioning system.Despite all my griping, I do appreciate Physical Plant efforts to keep us up and running.

SOC

The SOC building is disgusting. The roof has been leaking for the past 7 years; the bathrooms are gross and understocked; there is no hot water; the classrooms are too hot in the summer and too cold in the winter. The other buildings are certainly better, but in the Fall Semester the thermostat in CIS 1045 never worked.In short, physical plant is doing a poor job.

SOC

The physical plant employees are very professional. Thanks for finally getting the leak fixed in SOC over the Public Administration offices. It depends on the time of day as to whether the classrooms are neat. There needs to be larger trash cans in the classrooms, often by the end of the day (for evening classes)they are overflowing.

SOC

Bathrooms in SOC are appalling. Never any paper by 2 pm. Self-flushing means they never flush when most appropriate (who made that dopey decision to install such equipment?). Also toilets flush and shower the seat with filthy liquid -- such great engineering! No cleanup in the building on weekends means pigpen hallways and classrooms Mon AM. Furniture in classrooms has to be moved around by faculty just to allow people to get in the door and get seated easily. Some moron decided to replace perfectly fine blackboards with whiteboards; now there is never anything to write on them with. Nobody steals chalk -- why did nobody ask the users of the classrooms how they should be changed or improved? Worst of all, taking away the ability of the people working in the room to control even the temperature in the room makes our already low morale all the worse. Please bring back thermostats! Please put in real toilet paper, not that useless stuff! And lock the buildings on weekends and nights, for heavens sake. Stuff is stolen out of the classrooms constantly -- they have the new locks but are always unlocked -- even late at night and 5 am Sundays! Besides theft, leaving the building wide open brings tremendous safety issues for those who come in to work on weekends. Must we wait till another person gets murdered on campus to get the doors locked?Thanks for asking. I have been here 20 years and seen all this get worse every year. I hope you can do something to help.

SOC

Filthy bathrooms that go days at a time without paper towel. Toilet paper strewn on the floors. Stairwells in the SOC are disgusting and never cleaned.

SOC

The paper towel dispensers in the second floor ladies remained broken for several weeks. The automatic spigot does not work well, perhaps because the sensor is dirty.The stairways are not clean. The doors into the building do not always work. Ashtrays and grounds around the doors are littered.

SOC

About a month ago, the lights went out in the SOC building during a work week in the morning. I called Physical Plant to report it and see how long it would take for power to be running again. The lady who answered was very rude and was cutting off my sentences. She should have handled the stressful situation in a professional manner regardless of the situation.

SOC

SOC 2nd floor mens bathroom is continually running out of paper towels and urinal often overflows.

SUN

XXXX and his staff at Vehicle Maintanence are tremendous!!!

SVC

There is smoking in the stairwell at the southeast entrance of SVC (as it joins WUSF) Butts everywhere and garbage is everwhere outside and i have to inhale smoke as I go up those stairs or enter the building. I have to wade through dirt to get to this doorway as well.

SVC

Campus grounds have trash and paper. Waste cans typically are overflowing.

SVC

The bathrooms that are on the second floor of the SVC (outside entrance) are terrible. They stink, there is no ventillation, often out of papertowels and filthy. Garbage cans in individual offices need to be emptied nightly if bug infestation is to be avoided. Very friendly employees, only good things to say about them.

SVC

I dont know who is responsible for maintaining the public bulletin boards, but they should not allow the "wallpapering" of the board with the same poster in 100 places on the same board. I hang one little poster and go by an hour later and it is covered by some advertisement from a nightclub or organization that has posted 50 copies of it on the same bulletin board. That should not be allowed.

SVC

Regards to the Service Center Personnel (After Hours Answering Service) - Unfortunately, I had to make a call to physical plant on a Saturday morning regarding the air in ADM. The young lady at the answering center was very rude and impolite. She took on the tone of I was being a nusiance by calling at 9:30 in the morning.

SVC

The people weve dealt with from Physical Plant have always been very helpful and responsive to our needs. Keep it up!

SVC

Generally Physical Plant provides poor service and have unresponsive managers. The "worker bees" tend to know how to solve problems but there seems to be a general unresponsiveness by managers.

SVC

XXXX is awesome, she goes out of her way for all of us. XXXX is also just great, checks on us all to see how we are doing, XXXX is new and he too is a great man, we are very lucky to have the good crew we have here.

SVC

Weve had problems entering SVC Bldg on workday mornings. Often, the doors are locked before 8 am on 1st Floor & Basement, but we have several employees who begin work at 7 and 7:30 am.

SVC

I work in SVC but my choices above are for all the buildings I have been in.

SVC

Drainage of sinks on 4th floor is excessively slow.

SVC

Paper products in the ladies restroom near the stairwell on the second floor run out but it is kept clean. Water still accumulates around the sinks even though the person responsible for it wipes it dry. There is a lot of traffic in that small restroom making it difficult to keep stocked. All of the rest of them in SVC are well maintained and are well-stocked.

SVC

It used to be that the doors to the SVC building at the south end of the breezeway were always open by 7am daily. In the last 6 weeks, on days when Ive gotten here between 7-7:20am, at least 3 times a week on average the doors were not unlocked. Since I dont have a key to the building, its very inconvenient to have to wait for someone who does to arrive, or to have to walk all the way around the building to the door on the northeast corner, which sometimes is unlocked and sometimes not. There are other employees who have encountered the same thing and having talked with them I can say they feel the same way as I do. Just curious, is there a specific time these doors are supposed to be unlocked, or have we all just been spoiled by the earlier unlocking of the doors in the past?

SVC

One thing that needs a great deal of improvement is the use of those awful golf carts - the people who drive those from all areas including physical plant, go far too fast and have no problem running people off the sidewalks and block walk-ways due to thier horrible parking jobs. This is not a pedestrian-friendly campus at all. Between the bikes, skateboards, lack of side-walks and out-of-control golf carts its a scary place to walk.Then there are the grounds people who typically are just sitting in their carts staring at people as they walk by, not too polite.Overall the campus is well maintained, however there are areas that need quite a bit of attention - the current creepy basement entrance to SVC from lot 7 is a joke. There is a large, inclined sand patch which is of course, dirty, and when it rains it becomes a mudslide. Then, the entrance to the building is littered with cigarette butts and garbage, it is disgusting. And there is a tall narrow fence between SVC and the radio station building which makes it appear like a prison. It certainly doesnt set the tone for a nice work day.Our offices in SVC are so cold it is just ridiculous. What a waste of money on way too much AC. Just 2 degrees warmer will help - we have a thermometer in our office and many times it has been as low as 67 degrees. We all walk around in huge sweaters all year long.There are a lot of good things aobu this campus, the grounds usually look very nice, especially the landscaping improvements. And overall, things are kept clean which is difficult with so many litterbugs walking around the campus.

SVC

Dont seem to be able to have a comfortable temperature, too cold in some areas and too hot in others and the bathrooms need a good ventilation system as the air is really stale and odors tend to just hang on.

SVC

Sometimes the bathrooms are smelly. We need suitable toilet paper instead of the stuff you give us which is like using newspaper.

SVC

would like to see chemical treatment such as insecticides, fungicides, herbicides, etc, POSTED by a highly visible means. Particularly in the MLK St. Augustine turf areas between the Marshall CTR. and the ADM bldg. Many people and pets use these areas for lounging and relaxing, throwing frisbees. We have a right to know if chemicals have been recently applied.

SVC

We have had good experience with the workcrew assigned to our office

SVC

1. There should be advance warning to Offices when Physical Plant employees are coming to make repairs that the Office did not request. Recently when wiring was being installed for either the swipe or the alarm system, I arrived in the morning to learned that they needed to be in my office. Had I known I could have made other arrangements. 2. I want to reiterate that when outside contractors are doing work, they should make arrange to clean up and not have USF Personnel deterred from thier regular cleanup work that should be handled by the contractor.

SVC

I feel Physical Plant does a good job in consideration of available resources here at USF. Yes, sometimes the building is too hot, or too cold, and yes, I would love to have someone clean my carpet every ten years, and yes, to see someone clean up five years of cobwebs and dirt on the inside wall of HR in the breezeway :-), but overall... its great to have the fine support from Physical Plant.

SVC

THE OFFICES ARE NEVER CLEANED AND FLOORS ARE NEVER VACUUMED. TRASH IS EMPTIED TWICE A WEEK.

SVC

Room temperature is a problem at times, but even getting people to agree on what is a comfortable temperature is difficult, so your job is not easy there.Some high traffic restrooms such as the one on the first floor of SVC (main or old part of the building), while regularly maintained, need attention more frequently than it gets. This one has more than its share of use. Of course the users have to take the blame for misuse, but unfortunately those who leave it clean suffer when others do not.

SVC

The mens restroom in the basement is never as clean as the restrooms upstairs. To use the restroom I usually go upstairs which is inconvenient.For the last several days the urinal has been overflowing adding to the general stinky order and uncleaness.The second toilet cubicle is so small its practically useless.

SVC

The first floor womens bathroom in the main SVC building is disgusting. The floors and walls are filthy - it doesnt appear that they have ever been scrubbed. Toilet paper and towels are frequently needed, and the smell is very unpleasant. The air freshener dispenser is useless because it is not maintained. The middle stall floor is frequently wet, and now the inner entrance door does not close properly. Using bathrooms in other campus buildings has only confirmed that this bathroom is not cleaned and maintained properly. This is a high traffic location and it should be cleaned throughout the day just as the Marshall Center bathrooms are. The university should be embarrassed by this facility.

SVC

We can never seem to consistently control the office temperatures. Its usually either too hot or too cold. A map of the A/C controls (thermostat controls)should be provided to each section/department that outlines which thermostat controls which area of the building/room. SVC 2nd floor breeze way restrooms are hard to manage, the counter around the wash basins holds water creating quite a mess.

SVC

Our grounds are not as pretty as they used to be. I see a lot of weeds around the SVC and ADM building. The grass isnt as green. As for the buildings, theyve gotten a lot better, but for a while there was much to be desired.

SVC

The grounds seem to be strewn with debris of late. I recall when I came here some years ago, the grounds, though not as lushly landscaped as now, were nevertheless much cleaner. Im a little surprised that the paths taken by the Admissions Office tour groups arent cleaned better. It gives a poor impression to folks that we are trying to sell our campus to.The landscaping is generally well-groomed. Im referring to papers and trash scattered around the Marshall Center, the Admin Building, and the mall between.

SVC

Often, the rest rooms are not cleaned throughout the day. In some buildings, that may work fine. In high traffic areas, that can become a problem. Sometimes the walkways outside the building are littered with papers - not necessarily a reflection of our staff, but more because of the bulletin board that students and vendors can post notices. It often gets overrun and the notices blow off or are pulled down and litter the walkways. Overall, were very pleased with the Physical Plant staff and services!

SVC

Bathrooms need hot water and rather have them maintained like the Marshall Center bathrooms.

SVC

My office is in SVC, but I teach or take classes in Cooper and Education. Education classrooms are usually clean, but the ones in Cooper often are not--full trash cans, dirty boards, papers and cans sometimes left on desks.

SVC

Poor ratings are mostly due to bathroom maintenance. Recent plumbing problems have taken "Months" to repair. Other big source of dissatisfaction is common extremely strong rotting carcass smell (most likely cats burying dead birds or squirrels) at entrance of ground floor SVC into breezeway (north), on the left corner next to the bike racks. The stench fills up the entire breezeway & has been going on for about a year now.

SVC

Hot water would be nice to wash your hands with in the first floor bathroom

TAR

What I notice in ALL of the buildings is a buildup behind the doors and in the corners of a mixture of dirt, water and whatever cleaning product was used. This a only natural when people use mops since mops just shove the dirt around. This muck needs cleaning out with white vinegar, wire brushes, and a wet vac to suck it away.

TAR

There is a problem heaing/cooling offices---apparently unfixable (its been a problem for the seven years Ive been here).Anyway to encourage folks in the "smoking area" (near water machine) to use receptacles for butts instead of ground? We need some LARGE receptacles for butts all around that area.THANKS

TAR

It is a tough job to maintain all of our buildings, especially during years with budget reductions, but I think Physical Plant has done a fine job in keeping the buildings and classrooms clean and responding to repair requests or emergencies in a timely manner. Planning for improvements and vendor subcontracts for major jobs such as floor, roof, paint, carpet, electrical or plumbing is first-rate. We appreciate the way we are often involved in the process, such as the elevator in our building and dividing A/C into zones to make our classroom temperature controllable. All in all, the staff makes it work seamlessly and sometimes magically. Ive found Physical Plant staff to be pleasant and responsive. XXXX, who manages our building, always says hello and seems to have a replacement light fixture, tools or ladder in his hands every time I see him. He deserves a raise. Thank you.

THR

There is a major problem with mold and mildew in the air vents. It is uncomfortable to be in the building for long periods of time, especially for those with allergies. I actually know people who are sick while in the building, and well while out of it.

UPB

The garage does not get work done in a timely manner. A car can sit there for weeks on a repair and you have to stay on them almost on a daily basis to make sure it gets done. Answers for why a car is not working is at times suspect. When I go to get gas, it appears that people are just standing around not doing anything. This looks bad for them giving the appearance that work is not done quickly.

USA

I AM AT USF-CHILDRENS RESEARCH INSTITUTE IN ST PETERSBURG. WE ARE NOT EVEN LISTED IN YOUR LIST OF BUILDINGS!! INDEED WE SEEM TO BE IN NO- MANS-LAND BECAUSE OUR PHYSICAL PLANT REQUESTS HAVE OFTEN BEEN OVERLOOKED. PLEASE ADD US TO YOUR LIST AND PROVIDE MORE SERVICES HERE. IT IS GETTING BETTER, BUT STILL MUCH IMPROVEMENT IS NEEDED!!!

USF

Just generally on campus.

USF

There should be more office space for adjuncts. Parking is extremely expensive.

WRB

The building I work in (WRB) is general in very good shape. Occassionally trash has not been picked up in some rooms. Also, papertowels are not always replenished in a timely fashion.PLEASE NOTE: I have attended a few classes in the last year where the rooms were not always very clean. The classes were located in the CIS, FAH (the Music performance hall), and the CSD building. The classrooms had a lot of trash on the floor, in chairs and overflowing trash cans.

WRB

I am commenting on the first floor only. We are often without paper towels in our lounge. We have real trouble getting staff to pick up the trash in our on-air Control Room. Dusting just doesnt happen. Vacuuming rarely.
