A Blue Team

     No matter which corner you walk by in Soochow campus, you always can catch sight of their back. Whenever you find them, they are working hardly to make campus clear. This scene will make me think of the memory that almost every student has shared and experienced before. When we were in elementary school, junior high school and high school, we had to clean our environment by ourselves. some people think that it is a way to cultivate students' sense of responsibility and also make it to be a good habit, which I fully agree with. When we enter college, we don't have to do this job anymore maybe because the most important thing now is to focus on studying our specialty and developing our interests in different fields, which I also agree with. But what my point is that we should appreciate that someone is taking good care of our environment for our sake, even though maybe others will think that it is their job and they are just doing what they should do as a cleaner.

     I have also noticed that most of the cleaners in that blue team are middle-aged people or even older, some of their age is maybe as same as our parents'. At their age to be a physical labor is really a hard job for them, every time when they are out of work they must feel exhausted. However, I am not saying that we should feel sympathy for them; actually, it is totally opposite. We should feel happy for them, because they still can work means that they are healthy enough and also they are very lucky to find job based on their age. What the attitude we should hold is having a appreciate heart and every time when we meet them we can say a simple word: "thanks"to them.
