New York's Cooperative and Condominium Community
I live in a coop that seems to have less & less work as an examples: Our boiler is automated, we have an automatic sprinkler system for all landscaping, we out source a number of tasked that use to be the suppers job, also board highers non union workers to work around the building.
Our live in supper hangs out in his apt. most of the day. Handyman covers for the supper by doing most of his work, the handyman with the porter picks up the garbage in the morning. We are a union building, most coops and condos are selling the suppers apt. and having a 24/7 on call companies that are doing the suppers job after 5PM. By doing so the building is saving money. Is it possible to put the full time workers on Pt. hours? How hard is it to replace supper on site.
