1. Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis:

My role is to come in, and start taking out the dirty linen, rubbish out of the room, than put clean linen on, than clean the bedroom and bathroom with the right chemicals so it is ready for the next customer. I emptied the cages of linen.
