澳洲清洁工都是做什么？
先引用一下维基百科对“Cleaner”的解释： A cleaner is a person whose job is to clean. This can be done professionally， for example in a hotel or other public building， or by amateurs (or part-timers) as a second job. Cleaners' duties vary according to their level of supervision and the size of the establishment they are working in. In smaller establishments there may only be one or two cleaners， who will complete all cleaning tasks. In larger buildings或工厂，there might be several grades of cleaner， with each grade working under the direction of a higher-grade worker。 The work will normally consist mainly of routine tasks such as dusting， wiping， mopping， polishing and general tidy-rounds（打扫和拖地）. It would typically include the provision of a high standard of service to the customers or public. There could be some risk associated with this kind of work， from unsafe cleaning chemicals to fire safety concerns. 就是一个室内保洁的工作。
那在澳洲做清洁工是怎样的体验呢？ 以我在墨尔本的经历来说吧。 我做的是办公室保洁，每天工作5小时，一周工作4天。工资是12澳币/时（税前）。我的老板是个非常严格的华裔澳洲人。我需要做到他满意的程度才算是通过了他的审核可以拿到工资。如果一天中有任何一点没有做好他就立即让我回去重做或者做几组额外的清洁。
刚开始的时候我很不适应这样高标准的要求，经常想哭。但是慢慢的我觉得自己变厉害了，因为我确实有了可以拿出去和别人谈的筹码了——我可以给雇主证明他们需要花更多的钱来雇用更合格的工人了。
虽然我做清洁的时间不长，只有短短的三个月，但是我感觉自己的责任心变强了好多。我不再像以前那样马马虎虎对待任何事情。现在如果我要出差我会提前几天把行程安排好并且把要处理的事情写下来；如果我到了新地点我想买一些家具或者是布置办公区域我会把预算报给主管审批然后亲自去挑；如果我有新的想法我会写计划书让领导批阅然后实施。。。
可能这就是有目标和责任感的体现吧。
