How long will the building have to quake and the tenants cringe under those screeching elevator brakes before Buildings shows up and cites these motherfuckers?
Oh wait, you say the pile of citations in the docket doesn't make a difference: J&O doesn't fix the elevator, the city doesn't fine J&O, and tenants are stuck with a broken and dangerous elevator, forever and always?
Never mind.

Janoff & Olshan's concept of a holiday
Today is a holiday, correct? Our national Independence Day? I repeat, a national holiday? Yes?
Lo, is that our building staff, there, in the courtyard, working? On a national holiday? Working on a national holiday?
I believe it is. Our building staff is there, working, and working hard, on a national holiday.
And that's your national holiday, if you're subject to Janoff & Olshan's dominion.
I f*cking hate these m*therf*ckers. I really do.
UPDATE: Let me be perfectly clear. I hate the m*therf*ckers because they make employees work on holidays; not because the work disturbs me, or some ridiculous thing.

They're at it again
More after-hours work without a permit. This time it's in 1B. And so, another snarling head grows from the beast.
And here's another futile attempt to slay this monster.

After-hours and weekend construction work is ILLEGAL
Again to veer off the topic of this blog's raison d'etre, the electric motor whine, a ghastly shriek which causes those in its vicinity to yearn for death: AFTER-HOURS AND SATURDAY/SUNDAY RENOVATING, WHICH IS TO SAY, THE HAMMERING, BANGING, AND DRILLING GOING ON in this building UNTIL 8 EVERY WEEKNIGHT AND FROM 9 a.m. ON SATURDAYS AND SUNDAYS - YES, TODAY, F*CKING SUNDAY, THEY STARTED HAMMERING AT 9 - IS AGAINST THE LAW, RATHER LIKE EVERY ACTION TAKEN, it seems, AND I WOULD BET, EVER CONTEMPLATED BY THE SORRY LITTLE CABAL OF SCOFFLAWS KNOWN AS JANOFF & OLSHAN.
The noise code reads:
§24-222 After hours and weekend limits on construction work. Except as otherwise
provided in this subchapter, it shall be unlawful to engage in or to cause or permit any
person to engage in construction work other than on weekdays between the hours of 7
a.m. and 6 p.m. A person may however perform construction work in connection with
the alteration or repair of an existing one or two family owner-occupied dwelling
classified in occupancy group J-3 or a convent or rectory on Saturdays and Sundays
between the hours of 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. provided that such dwelling is located more than
300 feet from a house of worship.
§24-223 After hours work authorization. (a) Notwithstanding section 24-222 of this
subchapter, an agency authorized to issue permits for construction work may, along with
such permit, issue an after hours work authorization for the work site. Such after hours
authorization may permit construction work to be performed at the site before 7 a.m. or
after 6 p.m. on weekdays and/or on Saturdays and/or Sundays subject to the conditions
and restrictions set forth in this section.
Do you think J&O bothered to get an after-hours work authorization? Very likely. Very F*CKING likely.
F*CK THEM.
UPDATE:
Janoff and Olshan last held after-hours work authorization in NOVEMBER. After-hours permits last no more than a day. Saturday, weeknight, and all-day-fucking-Sunday work is AGAINST THE G*DD*MN LAW.
Also: do you suppose the contractor pays OVERTIME to the workers for their 11-hour days and weekends? FAT CHANCE. I'm calling the state labor department next.
CURSES ON THESE HUMAN SCOURGES.
