About the Author

My name is Richard S. Takasch, I am a partner of Bud's Maintenance Service Company, L.L.C. Janitorial Supplies and Janitorial Paper Products. I started in Janitorial in 1972. I worked part time for two Janitorial Services. One of the services I worked in 4 ¿ hours an evening I done office cleaning and Spray Buffed floors I done General Office cleaning for two small companies. In the year 1973 I got a job in a chemical factory. I purchased 17 inch in diameter floor machine for $300.00. In the early 70's many of the floor waxers used paste wax. I have done a few taverns and luncheonettes in the start of my business. In 1975 I was laid off. I done floor maintenance and store front window cleaning. After a 2 year lay off I got back to my factory job. It did not last long in 1978 it was over. I added carpet cleaning to my part time business as I also worked for other established Janitorial businesses.. I worked full time in other factory jobs thinking that I may find a secure one. In the mean time I also worked for other janitorial services on a part time basis. I keep on working on my own service till I built it up till I felt it would be secure enough alone without the need of another job. I then added Carpet Cleaning to my offered services. In the late 80's and early 90's I was a member of CMI they printed some of my ideas in the monthly magazine. In the early 90's I belonged to the local Chamber of Commerce. My only regret is I should have started in my own business and got it off the ground sooner. I have 30 years in the Janitorial trade. www.budsmaintenancesupply.com

This review is from: Bud's Instruction Manual: Learn More then the Basics about Janitorial, Floor Maintenance, Carpet Cleaning, Office Cleaning and More (Paperback)

If you want a general overview of janitorial practices, this is the book for you. Titled as "Bud's Instruction Manual", I expected details, and step by step instructions. What I got was a general overview. I was disappointed. I'm sure Bud does a

great job himself, but he need help in explaining how to do things.
