What Rabab learned from the custodian project

Rabab is a true revolutionary. She has a passionate spirit, and encouraged me to do this project, because she wanted to do something practical in our leadership class.

Rabab is wearing the pink hijab. Here she is with classmates before work.

In response to a team leader's letter she wrote

أعزائى حسام و فاطمة

 

شكرا لكم على سعة صدركم معانا و حبكم لعملكم كان واضح و حسستونا اننا جزء منكم

 

عايزين نقولكم ان عملك رائع و مهم و من غيركم لا يمكن نستحمل اننا نيجى الجامعة و لا نشوفها

 

ربنا يوفقكم و يقويكم

 

Rabab listens as she is trained by the custodians.

Training is never very fun, under the best of conditions.

Thanks for your patience, and  loyal efforts.

 

You make us feel that we are part of your group.

 

Your guidance was  the secret of our success at that wonderful day

 

You both have great sense of leadership. Without your great efforts, it could be unbearable to come to the university

 

Wish you the best. Keep up this great spirit. Rabab.

It was a great experience. I learned that it is not enough to just feel sympathy about someone unless you put yourself into his/her situation. That is exactly what happened to me when i work as a custodian for less than 2 hrs.

Rabab cleans counters.

Their tolerance and patience to fulfill the tasks , as well as their efforts with us to teach the mechanism of work make me think that they themselves are the real leaders
Dear great and devoted custodians, in brief, our life without you is unbearable.

Rabab agreed with Dr. B that the gloves were inadequate.

Rabab interviews Mr. Mostafa about work conditions. 

Rabab socializes with custodians and students after the project.
