Keep Nardi's, Oz's, Florenc's, and the other doormen's jobs
Do not fire the doormen at Vernon Tower or cut Sef's pay.
Management is deciding to use an app to monitor building visitors, and requiring that the Super, Sef, take on all package receiving duties in addition to his regular position. They have laid off all of the doormen and cut Sef's pay.
Why is this important?
Residents signed leases at Vernon Tower feeling safe and confident that there were 24/7 doormen. They help with daily operations, keep the building secure, make sure no packages are mishandled, and add to the overall residential experience. Sef also has plenty to do without attempting to take on those roles as well.
This management company is taking advantage of residents as well as their staff. No compensation in rent is being offered despite the reduction of services -- even though we're in the midst of a pandemic, and people are struggling as is to make ends meet. AND, these doormen have been incredibly loyal, hardworking, and amazing individuals who have worked tirelessly to keep us healthy and safe during COVID. Laying them off now is cruel and unfair to them and their families.
