Like this at 15th & Market? I wish I could email the odor!

or this at 15th & Locust (Yes, they're human!):

and the world's most inappropriate slogan:

No they're not!

The following, from today's Inquirer, is about the Center City
District (CCD). It is another example of the potential for abuse
by organizations such as UCD.....This article shows abuse in the
form of putting a bunch of productively-employed workers -- about
whose performance nobody seems to be complaining -- out of jobs
based on a no-bid contract which the present people say they could
have undercut if given the chance.
Krigman Al, you're really stretching things again here!
My husband read part of that article out loud to me this morning as
we had breakfast. He read it because we were both stunned to find
that there is a cleaning contract with SEPTA for its concourses.
Have you ever *been* in the concourses? If so, have you ever seen
them looking anywhere near *clean*? I love the trolleys and take
them downtown every time I go. I walk in the concourses to get to
the MSB building from 15th & Market, to get from Market St. back to
the trolleys, and at various other points under and around City
Hall. The concourses are absolutely filthy. Someone must pick up
trash, because you don't see overflowing trash cans, but other than
that, I can't even remotely imagine using the word "clean" to
describe the conditions there.
So if it were up to me to try to make a change, I surely wouldn't
renew the contract of the current "cleaner."
