The Big E's Jackie the johnitor

On those days when you think you've got the crappiest job in the world, and you just want to scream, think of Jackie the johnitor. She is a ladies room attendant at The Eastern States Exposition, or Big E, a mega-state fair for the six New England states. Normally, I would ignore a "Poop" shirt, and certainly would not photograph it, but her job was to keep the ladies room clean, and what a delight she is.

We chatted for a while as she finished lunch at her post. She was thankful for the job that she had and made the best of it. She had a smile for everyone that went in or out, and it was reflected in her full tip bucket.

As for John the johnitor, he wasn't smiling, and neither was his tip bucket.
