frequents the city’s venues.<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n<\/div>\n
That’s how it is, according to the handyman Claus Hansen: \u00bbI never know what the day will bring. Two days are never the same here\u00ab. If a fuse blows, or if a water pipe springs a leak, you call Campus Service, where Claus has been employed for twelve years in a function which involves many different tasks.<\/p>\n
Students and staff often call them up. Some of them even stick their heads into the basement workshop when they need to borrow a bike wrench, or if a bulb has gone in Building 17. At pharma, they practise an \u2018open door principle,\u2019 says Claus Hansen. Everyone knows each other, and there is a flat organisation structure throughout:<\/p>\n
\u00bbIt doesn’t matter whether you are a professor or a labourer. We are on the same level, and this is really important for the working environment.\u00ab<\/p>\n
Claus Hansen, or ‘Fusker\u2019 which his colleagues call him affectionately<\/secret>, is a working man of the old school. With his snake-tattooed arms and gold teeth in his upper mouth he stands out from the usual university clientele.<\/p>\nBeer bar<\/h3>\n
Claus started at the Tuborg brewery at the age of 19, as the youngest lorry driver in the entire brewery.<\/p>\n
\u00bbIt was back then when you had to be able to carry two beer crates on your back, and [at Tuborg, ed.] we had access to the beer and soft drink fridges 24\/7,\u00ab says Claus, who is now 66 years old.<\/p>\n
Later, he moved indoors to the brewery, and before he noticed, 18 years had passed. The next decade went with various jobs in community centres in the inner city and N\u00f8rrebro, and since 2005 Claus, who is a native of the \u00d8sterbro district, has been back in his own neighbourhood at Universitetsparken, where pharma is located. They call it suburban Panum, \u2018udkantspanum\u2019, with playful reference to the more central, prestigious, Panum Institute location.<\/p>\n
My boss promised me that I can stay here until I am 70. But I would like to say to him that I won\u2019t stop until I am 90. As on the inside, I feel like I am 25 year-old boy.<\/p>\n
Operations technician Claus Hansen<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
The love of a cold draught beer has never left Claus Hansen. The semester’s Friday bars for the employees are written into his calendar. \u2018FR\u2019 is written with small blue capital letters next to every last Friday of the month.<\/p>\n
In 2019, it is ten years since some employees grabbed an old draught beer keg from a bar and asked rector if he would sponsor a beer bar. Now all employees meet \u2013 high and low \u2013 over a cold specialty beer and share the stories and holiday photos.<\/p>\n
Claus helps to organise this. And then he is happy to pop up at the students Friday bar, the Autoklaven, every now and then for a chat. Because he gets on \u00bbreally well\u00ab with the students, he says:<\/p>\n
\u00bbThey don’t see us just as workmen. Sometimes they might even be a bit too humble because they think we are something special. But I’m nothing. I have no training, I have nothing, I am just an assistant.\u00ab<\/p>\n
With nice students and good colleagues, Claus Hansen is in no hurry to leave Campus Service, even though he could have opted for early retirement a long time ago:<\/p>\n
\u00bbMy boss promised me that I can stay here until I am 70. But I would like to say to him that I won\u2019t stop until I am 90. As on the inside, I feel like I am 25 year-old boy.\u00ab

With his snake-tattooed arms and gold teeth in his upper mouth he stands out from the usual university clientele.<\/p>\n<h3>Beer bar<\/h3>\n<p>Claus started at the Tuborg brewery at the age of 19, as the youngest lorry driver in the entire brewery.<\/p>\n<p>\u00bbIt was back then when you had to be able to carry two beer crates on your back, and [at Tuborg, ed.] we had access to the beer and soft drink fridges 24\/7,\u00ab says Claus, who is now 66 years old.<\/p>\n<p>Later, he moved indoors to the brewery, and before he noticed, 18 years had passed. The next decade went with various jobs in community centres in the inner city and N\u00f8rrebro, and since 2005 Claus, who is a native of the \u00d8sterbro district, has been back in his own neighbourhood at Universitetsparken, where pharma is located. They call it suburban Panum, \u2018udkantspanum\u2019, with playful reference to the more central, prestigious, Panum Institute location.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>My boss promised me that I can stay here until I am 70. But I would like to say to him that I won\u2019t stop until I am 90. As on the inside, I feel like I am 25 year-old boy.<\/p>\n<p class=\"quotee\">Operations technician Claus Hansen<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>The love of a cold draught beer has never left Claus Hansen. The semester’s Friday bars for the employees are written into his calendar. \u2018FR\u2019 is written with small blue capital letters next to every last Friday of the month.<\/p>\n<p>In 2019, it is ten years since some employees grabbed an old draught beer keg from a bar and asked rector if he would sponsor a beer bar. Now all employees meet \u2013 high and low \u2013 over a cold specialty beer and share the stories and holiday photos.<\/p>\n<p>Claus helps to organise this. And then he is happy to pop up at the students Friday bar, the Autoklaven, every now and then for a chat. Because he gets on \u00bbreally well\u00ab with the students, he says:<\/p>\n<p>\u00bbThey don’t see us just as workmen. Sometimes they might even be a bit too humble because they think we are something special. But I’m nothing. I have no training, I have nothing, I am just an assistant.\u00ab<\/p>\n<p>With nice students and good colleagues, Claus Hansen is in no hurry to leave Campus Service, even though he could have opted for early retirement a long time ago:<\/p>\n<p>\u00bbMy boss promised me that I can stay here until I am 70. But I would like to say to him that I won\u2019t stop until I am 90. As on the inside, I feel like I am 25 year-old boy.\u00ab<\/p>\n"},{"acf_fc_layout":"ArticleEnd"},{"acf_fc_layout":"Newsletter","lang_select":"Dansk","identifier":"Newsletter","headline":"Receive a weekly newsletter in your inbox","button_text":"Tilmeld nu","class":""},{"acf_fc_layout":"OtherStories","headline":"","hand_picked_posts":false,"references":false,"category":false,"theme":false,"number_of_posts":"4","style":"default"}]},"taxonomyData":{"category":[{"term_id":44,"name":"Campus","slug":"campus","term_group":0,"term_taxonomy_id":44,"taxonomy":"category","description":"","parent":0,"count":1547,"filter":"raw"}],"post_tag":[{"term_id":761,"name":"Faculty of Health and Medicine","slug":"faculty-of-health-and-medicine","term_group":0,"term_taxonomy_id":761,"taxonomy":"post_tag","description":"","parent":0,"count":9,"filter":"raw"},{"term_id":953,"name":"My job","slug":"my-job","term_group":0,"term_taxonomy_id":953,"taxonomy":"post_tag","description":"","parent":0,"count":6,"filter":"raw"},{"term_id":2319,"name":"working","slug":"working","term_group":0,"term_taxonomy_id":2319,"taxonomy":"post_tag","description":"","parent":0,"count":1,"filter":"raw"},{"term_id":795,"name":"working environment","slug":"working-environment","term_group":0,"term_taxonomy_id":795,"taxonomy":"post_tag","description":"","parent":0,"count":12,"filter":"raw"}],"post_format":[],"expression":[{"term_id":18,"name":"Feature Article","slug":"feature_article","term_group":0,"term_taxonomy_id":18,"taxonomy":"expression","description":"","parent":0,"count":1200,"filter":"raw"}],"translation_priority":[]},"featured_media_url":"https:\/\/uniavisen.dk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/claushansenk6a6546-1280x853.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/uniavisen.dk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/93104","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/uniavisen.dk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/uniavisen.dk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/uniavisen.dk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/68"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/uniavisen.dk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=93104"}],"version-history":[{"count":5,"href":"https:\/\/uniavisen.dk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/93104\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":93293,"href":"https:\/\/uniavisen.dk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/93104\/revisions\/93293"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/uniavisen.dk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/92197"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/uniavisen.dk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=93104"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/uniavisen.dk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=93104"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/uniavisen.dk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=93104"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
