[Star Wars] Why was Finn on Jakku?

When they infiltrated Starkiller base, Finn told Han that he worked maintenance.  Why would a designated maintenance worker get a combat role?  Does the Empire force their Stormtroopers to do work like that? I would expect them to hire civilians to do that kind of work (or slaves).

1. The First Order is not the Empire.

2. Finn was assigned to sanitation, not maintenance.

2. The First Order's stormtroopers *are* slaves. They're kidnapped from birth and pressed into service.

3. It's possible that he was part of the sanitation crew until he showed some trait that the First Order looks for in its stormtroopers (obviously not loyalty to the cause. Possibly a strong stomach) and was transferred into their training program. We know 100% for sure, though, that the raid on Jakku was in fact his *first* mission as a stormtrooper, so he would not have been one when he was working sanitation on Starkiller Base.
