They have money for safe streets but can’t provide DPW employees with water? SMH

As a DPW WORKER FOR BALTIMORE I WHOLEHEARTEDLY AGREE WITH THIS YOUNG MANS STATEMENT ✊🏿

He ain't lying. I work for DPW and I have a desk job. AC wasn't working in our office and it was 90 degrees in there. This has been going on for the last 3 summers. I called the Union several times. They weren't much help. Finally, it works.

I would like to say to ALL DPW workers, "Thank You". Without you helping to keep the city clean, it would be a trash dump all over the city. Continue to stand in Unity Together and demand Change. They might get one or two of You for speaking Truth to Power, but they cannot get All of You when you are working together. Enough Is Enough, make them treat All of you with Respect each one of You deserve it!

I used to work for Waste Management through a temp agency and even than the workers wasn't treated fair, especially during certain weather conditions. The city doesn't wanna pay these workers fairly, underpaying is wrong considering how much the city makes at landfills. 💯

The “suits” are always so disconnected from what the front line workers are going through!!! It’s so frustrating.

Beau of the fifth column once said "when voting is lopsided in favor of one side or another, NEITHER side benefits" people feel like nothing will change no matter what. Politicians have no incentive to cater to the voters, EVEN their own voters. Honestly when he said this it surprised me. But it is apparent that's true.
