Have video proof if picture is not sufficient eno

Also parked in front of the fire hydrant... not good.

Well believe it or not, government employees are actually allowed to take breaks and every once in a while the are afforded the right to eat food. Just because a restaurant serves alcohol doesn’t mean a thing. This place is a restaurant and not how you like to word it “a local bar”.

Didn’t know drinking in the job was acceptable for break good to know!

@rob, breaks are usually 30mins not a few hours.

He's allowed to have breaks and also eat meals

Following this thread... hopefully not like last year when city employees were using equipment to clean personal driveways. Def recommend transparency from city on this one since there was not much last year when there was misuse. Hopefully this turns out to be a misunderstanding.

Yes we eat and have breaks, but we should be aware our every move is scrutinized by the public as it should. My advice for my employees is to think about what you're doing and how it would look on the front page of the Herald, or in this instance SeeClickFix!!

As an HR professional in Government all I can say is this does not pass the stink test!

Right speaking of wording read carefully 7 til 9 not a just a break

City Manager’s Assistant assigned this issue to DPW Commissioner

Thank you for reporting this issue, we will have DPW review the situation.

its a shame that one lazy worker gives the rest of the department a bad name. maybe upper management should start firing those bad apples

I can attest that this guy is a really hard worker he's not lazy he goes above and beyond of what he has to do he does more of you may think I'm pretty sure his boss will think the same.

It's pretty simple. Ask Mi Salvador for their camera footage to see if the individual was drinking while working/using City equipment. I know for a fact that there are camera's in the restaurant, so just review the footage.

If it turns out he was drinking, then he obviously needs to be dismissed immediately. If he did nothing but take a break for longer than he is supposed to, then he doesn't deserve anything but a verbal warning.

And the city wants police officers to live here. Are you freaking serious? With the amount of losers with absolutely nothing going on with their lives and probably living off the government (our taxes) sitting in their cars for 2 hours watching people’s lives, imagine dealing Chelsea’s finest all day then be spyed on when you go out? Screw that.

If anonymous is so concerned about our taxes being wasted, why don’t you take pictures of ALL those tenants living off the government $ on Broadway and FULLY able to get out and get a paying job. Send those pictures in and label them FRAUD This will help us a lot. I will personally give you a hug for that.

If you have time to lean, you have time to clean. Let’s go to work now and be PRODUCTIVE members of society not burdens.
