dumb and dumber and desperate


Two "workers" were slobbering during feeding time in their van parked on East 8th st. in Greenwich Village, today, April 17, 2008. As they shoveled food into their mouths they catcalled several ladies walking by, several of which looked 16.

When I walked by they held down their horn (while slobbering) which startled me, of course a cat call for me wouldn't do since my brown skin makes me inferior.

The look on their faces tells a lot about them, dumb and dumber and desperate.

UPDATE: I sent a certified mail to the management office of the building and they were not very nice and said there must be a mistake and made excuses for the doorman. He seems to have gotten the message however because he looks away when I walk by - as uncomfortable as it is for me.

NOTE: Julia, who had a similar experience, wrote in with her hollaback: "Since they were stupid enough to harass me in front of their work truck, I noted the business name, called the business, and informed them of what their employees were doing. The employer was extremely nice and very concerned that their employees were doing that. I was told they would be dealt with and was invited to call back the next day so I would know how they were dealt with. It was nice to say my piece - and in this litigious age, I think most employers realize they could get in trouble by their employees behavior and take the appropriate action to correct it."
