Is janitorial work really a calling?

I've heard that cleaning the chapel is a job given to various members as a calling but I've never seen a quote or anything.
Is this true?
Are there any quotes on this?

It wasn't until the payments on real estate investments, ALA temples came in. When they realised the slush fund would suffer, they dove at the plug powering the underpaid janitorial staff. In vegas, I only ever saw mexicans doing janitorial work. Ironic, dontha think?

How much money could cutting the profesional cleaners really save (if the LDS church really has billions)?

I love your threads by the way......This one really does not surprise me and I had no idea......cutting into the bottom line by saving on janitorial staff is tried by many companies especially around personal work spaces...but in a chapel that is a public area well that makes no sense to me.....and the companies that say they want to save on janitorial staff actually shoot themselves in the foot because the employee will cut off about ten to fifteen minutes of their workday to empty their own trash and clean so.......their perceived savings are really costing them more

Considering the church does not pay well, maybee this is negligible.
