School hallway before/after downgrade, painful watch 🫩

[u/glass-owls]

[u/RoytjePoytjeGamez]

Looks like a hall for a doctors office or something. If I didn't know this was a school and I had to guess, I'd definitely say it's a hall at the hospital or smth

[u/amccaffe1 → u/RoytjePoytjeGamez]

The word you are looking for is institution. You know, like a prison.

The bars subliminally reinforce and confirm that you're in for the duration with no chance of escape.

I was in my room and I was just like, staring at the walls thinking about everything, but then again, I was thinking about nothing.

And then my mom came in, and I didn't even know she was there.

She called my name and I didn't hear her and then she started screaming, "Mike! Mike!"

And I go, "What? What's the matter?"

She goes, "What's the matter with you?"

I go, "There's nothing wrong, mom"

She goes, "Don't tell me that, you're on DRUGS!”

I go, "No mom, I'm not on drugs, I'm okay, I'm just thinking, you know? Why don't you get me a Pepsi?"

She goes, "No, you're on DRUGS!”

I go, "Mom, I'm okay, I'm just thinking"

And she goes, "No, you're not thinking, you're on drugs. Normal people don't act that way"

I go, "Mom, just get me a Pepsi, please? All I want is a Pepsi" AND SHE WOULDN’T GIVE IT TO ME!”

All I wanted was a Pepsi

Just one Pepsi

And she wouldn't give it to me

Just a Pepsi

[u/Fluid_Fee_2239 → u/RoytjePoytjeGamez]

I actually think this used to be a hall for a pediatric doctor or something similar. I think we're being misled.

[u/Educational-Wing2042 → u/Fluid_Fee_2239]

This is obvious by the fact that there’s a laundry room right there. Schools generally don’t even have laundry facilities, much less mixed in with the classrooms

[u/Fly4620 → u/Educational-Wing2042]

I worked at a preK and we did 

[u/Skizot_Bizot → u/Fly4620]

I think it's potentially a really small school. The hallways are too narrow for a normal public school. Unless it's a side hallway or something. Cant have hordes of students and teachers flow into that hallway each day.

[u/Fraxinus2018 → u/Educational-Wing2042]

Most schools have laundry facilities for the custodians and food service staff. You probably just never noticed. How do you think they wash their mops and towels?

[u/RussMaGuss → u/Fraxinus2018]

Most schools have contracts with companies like Cintas for uniforms, towels etc. More cost and time efficient than having a janitor doing laundry on top of all their other duties

[u/bunbunnnnn8 → u/RussMaGuss]

I think when you say "most" you mean in "most" cities. Smaller towns don't have Cintas or the like,

[u/Fraxinus2018 → u/RussMaGuss]

I'm assuming we're both using the modifier "most" anecdotally. All the public schools I attended in my youth (military family, so we moved a lot) and all the schools I've taught in across multiple states over the years had on site laundry. There were mostly smaller schools, so I'm guessing that's a key factor.

[u/No-Albatross-7984 → u/Educational-Wing2042]

How do you know that? I work at a library, and we have a laundry room. Wouldn't be a stretch to expect one in a school 

[u/Western-Sport500 → u/No-Albatross-7984]

Our high school had one in the home ec area. Even after home ec went to the wayside (such a shame), the facilities were maintained as a classroom and a place for accidents (periods, certain other problems).

[u/RoytjePoytjeGamez → u/Fluid_Fee_2239]

Yeah not much context is really given, I'm not on these "scrolling platforms" (except Reddit) so I don't even know the full video, or creator, or even context

[u/Mbrennt → u/RoytjePoytjeGamez]

There's a laundry room. I'm sure a couple schools have laundry rooms for whatever reason. I don't think thats 100% disqualifiying the premise. But it makes me extremely skeptical this is just a school getting repainted to boring colors.

[u/JeebusChristBalls → u/RoytjePoytjeGamez]

Assuming it's even a school. You only think that because OP said it. OP is just some rando posting for internet points. Authentic posters show up in the comments, not just post and move on.

[u/Lissypooh628 → u/JeebusChristBalls]

Exactly. For all we know, this could have been a children’s wing at a hospital. Then a new Children’s hospital was built, so this is now a different specialty, so they had to do away with the mural since it’s not geared towards kids anymore. Who knows. 🤷🏼‍♀️

[u/Odisseo1983 → u/RoytjePoytjeGamez]

Right, it gave me 1000% hospital vibes.

[u/Fluid_Fee_2239]

I want to read the comments, what's the source? For some reason, you cropped out the original source and muted it?

Something tells me there's more to this story. Why does a "school" this small have a laundry room? EDIT: Okay, I hear you! 😅

[u/TA_Lax8 → u/Fluid_Fee_2239]

Pure speculation, but with how narrow the hallway is, it having carpet, rooms pretty tightly spaced, low ceilings (for a school) without much natural light. I'm betting this was a a pre-school/daycare or a learning center. They are commonly renting a wing of an office building.

Gonna also speculate that this was recently converted from being that to something else by a new tenant with the painter in the video being that. So it's no longer for kids

[u/jupitermoonflow → u/TA_Lax8]

I agree. She still made it ugly tho

[u/Spugheddy → u/jupitermoonflow]

I agree. Looks like a dentists office that pitches you cancer screenings 4x in 1 visit.

[u/Puzzleheaded-Ad7606 → u/Spugheddy]

To be fair my cancer center is actually way more cheerful than this.

[u/Dense-Consequence-70 → u/Spugheddy]

Maybe it is that

[u/nitrogenlegend → u/jupitermoonflow]

Yeah would’ve been better off just going with the grey as a solid color instead of the ugly stripes. Would’ve saved a ton of time and a decent bit of money too.

[u/JeebusChristBalls → u/Fluid_Fee_2239]

There is literally more to this story. That video is obviously and intentionally cut short for a reason. OP is a phony.

[u/New_Thing1367 → u/JeebusChristBalls]

[u/trix_is_for_kids → u/JeebusChristBalls]

It’s just engagement bait. This space is certainly no longer for children

[u/Useful-Possibility80 → u/JeebusChristBalls]

Maybe its being renovated for a commercial purpose.

[u/verify_b4_sharing → u/Fluid_Fee_2239]

 I think it's really helpful to ask yourself two questions whenever you see anything on the internet.

1. Would I know what was happening in this video if there wasn't a caption giving context?

2. Do I have any reason to trust the context I was provided? For example, does it provide evidence I can verify? Is this a creator or news source that I know to be reliable? 

The answers are almost always no for almost anything served up on a front page or news feed, since it's typically not from established creators or sources the viewer will be very familiar with. It's an approach to delivering information and entertainment that's designed to be unverifiable, leaving us no choice but to accept it as presented. 

[u/ChampionRemote6018 → u/verify_b4_sharing]

I’m a librarian and I thank you for sharing your media literacy skills!

Digital citizenship; be kind, be curious, but be cautious.

[u/drunxor → u/verify_b4_sharing]

I want to go back to the pre monetized and rage bated internet. Everything now is just for engagement, no one makes videos because they want to or are creative anymore. Its all cropped and stolen videos trying to make a quick buck

[u/MyLastAcctWasBetter → u/Fluid_Fee_2239]

Actually, a lot of small elementary and preschools have laundry rooms. I used to work as a teacher and worked at three places with their own. It allows lunch and every day classroom laundry to get cleaned without going through an intermediary company. Also, it was super useful for art room messes.

Plus, we kept a bin of extra clothes at the school for unexpected accidents or messes when kids didn’t have backups. And it would make a lot more sense for a small school to have laundry than an office space.

That said, I think this space probably was being converted for another use after a school moved to a new location or went out of business.

[u/boopboopadoopity → u/Fluid_Fee_2239]

Genuinely upsetting. I tried to reverse search to find the source, but the deliberate choices to obscure the bottom and the fact that the original has so few interactions are making it impossible.

OP is a bot account, so we'll never get answers. Frustrating.

[u/sukamacoc → u/Fluid_Fee_2239]

It's called bait brother 🥀

[u/Fluid_Fee_2239 → u/sukamacoc]

And my post was calling it out.

[u/The_Titam → u/Fluid_Fee_2239]

Cutting out the source is definitely suspicious, but I want to add that laundry rooms in small schools is pretty common.

Some schools have laundry rooms for students that have bedbug problems at home. They will keep a set of clean clothes at the school, have the student change into those when they get to school, then run the brought in clothes in the laundry.

A lot of special needs schools have laundry machines to help teach students life skills like how to do laundry.

[u/Belialxyn → u/Fluid_Fee_2239]

I’m guessing it’s one of those videos where a couple buys an old school and turns it into a house. Clever editing for some extra karma though I suppose.

[u/DanielEnots → u/Fluid_Fee_2239]

Some people buy old schools to live in... i was thinking it might be that

[u/Former_Guarantee_344]

She is ragebaiting for engagement. Calling it a school is just to make people mad and want to comment/share. It was probably a repurposed building where the mural would be bizarre for its new purpose.

[u/ensuiscool → u/Former_Guarantee_344]

100% engagement bait. There’s a laundry room, which obviously could be anything but the colourful mural tells me it’s probably a pedes wing of a medical clinic/hospital.

[u/AustinTanius → u/ensuiscool]

This is ragebait, but I work for a large school district and every single building has a laundry room. Just seeing a lot of comments calling that out as abnormal but it's actually very normal for a school to have a laundry room.

[u/Low_Low_1811 → u/ensuiscool]

Yeah, this doesnt even look like a school. If it is a school it would be an office area, and I doubt they would have it decorated that way. Even in kids hallways they are usually decorated more sparesely and also have kids work posted.

[u/petrificustortoise → u/ensuiscool]

I mean schools with small children have laundry rooms..

[u/a_likely_story → u/Former_Guarantee_344]

[u/McWeaksauce91 → u/obi_wan_jabroni_23]

[u/SurvivorPostingAcc → u/Original-Variety-700]

A lot of preschools and daycares have laundry rooms to wash sheets, blankets, etc from nap time.

[u/tHollo41 → u/SurvivorPostingAcc]

Also to wash linens from the nurse clinic. Every elementary school I've been in has a washer and dryer.

[u/ThcGrassCity → u/Original-Variety-700]

I just built a daycare there are 3 laundry rooms for 5 rooms. Do you think the kids just sit in shitty pants all day.

[u/Original-Variety-700 → u/ThcGrassCity]

I meant that it was probably a daycare (which would have a laundry room) and is being converted into office space or a medical office. This would explain the reason for painting over the murals.

[u/ChanglingBlake → u/Original-Variety-700]

I’d still prefer the former as a mere office worker TBH.

Oh, so you know the whole story here? That's interesting, because all I saw was a title meant to intentionally lead the viewer to a certain conclusion and a video clip cut short. I'm very impressed by your ability to take some strangers words and actions at face value without actual facts.

[u/ZookeepergameIll1399]

ragebait

[u/Radioactivocalypse → u/ZookeepergameIll1399]

Yep.

At the end of the day, every cute mural or child friendly artwork will be destroyed, painted over, redeveloped or dismantled.

But if course you can slap anything over a video and say "look what they've done to the place!" failing to mention it's being converted into a venue where a jungle mural is inappropriate

[u/rabidrobitribbit → u/ZookeepergameIll1399]

Yeah I want to read the back story here. It’s probably “we’re getting ready to let the kids paint it all over again for next year. Every year the oldest class gets to paint a new theme” or something.

[u/JeebusChristBalls → u/rabidrobitribbit]

Or that it isn't even a school anymore. Literally no context to form an opinion on here.

[u/muttmunchies → u/rabidrobitribbit]

Unlikely if she taped it off to do the vertical patterns. She would have simply painted it the base color otherwise.

I can't be the only one who thought the jungle art was pretty cool, especially for a school hall way.

And I can't be the only one who thinks this woman should be thrown in jail for what he just did to said hallway.

Right?

She literally just painted herself into a jail. From Jungle to Jail should be the name of this school.

Let's put children in a grey prison. Horrible

I mean, it looked like a zoo before

This looks like the sterilization being done to fast food places.

They need to break the children's spirit to prepare them for corporate indentured servitude 

[u/Jimny977]

Man the selfishness is wild, they’ve repainted a school to remove everything it had for the kids, to match one boring adult loser’s “everything must be dull, plain and boring” aesthetic. It’s a school not your sad home.

The fact that a grown ass adult can’t tell that they weren’t the audience for paintings of parrots, elephants and trees is insane. Inside of a school isn’t supposed to be your generic personality-less millennial’s insta page.

Bring back whimsy

Minimalist renovations can be good. This was not one of those times. Perhaps if they sold that building to become office space or something it would make sense.

[u/carrieshot]

Ah yes its prison again. Creativity wise it'd be perfect before they replaced it, and had no need for change

[u/deiner7]

But why

[u/hartstyler]

This is bait on multiple levels

I was a high school art teacher. One year I had my senior students paint murals above doorways and in some stairwells. Depending on the location they also reflected the subject(s) taught in that area of the school. Went away for the summer and when I returned the head custodian had painted over 90% of the murals. I was shocked and asked why? His reply was, he didn't like the ones he painted over. I was not consulted and certainly not pleased.

Sad grey hallway

[u/Dad-Dabbing-Daily]

Ahh yes. Make it look like prison bars.
