[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, you're not going to get a direct dial number that connects you to a person who will, within hours of your calling, arrange for someone to come and clean up the poop.  It's just not happening.

As I see it, your options are to continue to call about it and submit tickets, recognizing that it isn't likely to yield quick results, or, recognizing that it isn't and shouldn't be your responsibility, arm yourself with dog poop bags, rubber gloves, and Clorox wipes, and do it yourself.

What you are suggesting is actually dangerous. Also, where would the poop then be disposed of? Again, dangerous. Human faeces c series disease. And we pay taxes for proper hygiene in the city .[/quote]
Lol!  There are absolutely zero employees of the city that care one hoot about a poopy bench.  You people have to stop being so fragile.[/quote]

I'm not sure what point you are making. You proposed that citizens take over the government job of properly and safely removing biohazard, and you were rebutted. Pardon the pun.[/quote]

Rebutted?  Hardly.  You need a dictionary.

It's just not that dangerous.

And "we pay taxes!!"" is the most pathetic sort of complaint there is.  Yes, in a perfect world, this wouldn't be an issue.  But that's not where we live.  So either roll up your sleeves, pull on those gloves, and get scrubbing, or don't, and leave it there.  But you're just not going to have a city employee at your beck and call to clean up for you, Karen.  [/quote]

I’d take a Mayor Karen over Mayor Muriel any day.  We want a competent mayor who sweats the details and cares about public health and quality of life issues.

Why anyone thinks that NYC in the 70s is some acceptable municipal model is completely baffling.[/quote]
Sweats the details?!  On not one spreadsheet in the entire city government is poo patrol a category or an item.  As others have said, roll up your sleeves if you care so much about “quality of life”.  Only you folks can take an extremely minor, nonexistent trivial matter and make it the issue of the month.[/quote]

When Washingtonians resign themselves to the levels of public sanitation and local services that one ensures in a Third World city, then DC will have reached a new low, worse than the Barry era.[/quote]
