    When are they going to get somebody, anybody to clean the dust bunnies off of our consoles?
    Just use one of your disenfecting wipes to wipe the area where the monitors sit, under those new monitor stands..........see what our recycled filtered air system is leaving there for us to inhale into our lungs! This looks to be as/or more harmful than second hand smoke!

    I like the little changes around work. It's beginning to feel like we are at work and not a sweatshop all the time.
    Thank you for our wonderful coworkers who volunteer thier time to do these classes.
    Summer is quickly approaching and the last few years just feels like 2 seasons, summer and winter.
    We are going to take a vicious beating this summer, call volume every year thousands more than the previous, if there is a big boss reading this, we are well aware of the manpower shortage, but please do not keep repeatedly denying time due. Our stats are always going to be in the hole, we can't control the amount of call volume. We need a break or two just to get in a breath. A happy employee is a healthy one.

    What about the new little change announced at the 1st watch roll call last night

    No more time due for the rest of this period...AND...after that, if anyone is working overtime of any kind, extension, rdo or mandatory, then no time due either!!

    Glad I only have 4 more years...

    guess starts didn't get the OEMC job...someone from within, who actually knows about the place got it...

    "The Mayor also named Tony Ruiz Executive Director of the Office of
    Emergency Management and Communications, where he worked for 12 years
    before becoming First Deputy Commissioner of the Department of Streets
    and Sanitation in 2005."

    I been there since oemc opened and have NEVER heard of Tony Ruiz. What the hell kind of experience does he have???

    Tony was the top guy with ISCN a few years back... very very intelligent man... very nice as well... he knows how a communications center works, and has enough sense to trust those who keep it running from day to day... he will be very good for this place
