New Yorkers Brace for Doorman Strike -2

New Yorkers Brace for Doorman Strike - NYTimes.com
"The 30,000 residential doormen, porters, superintendents, elevator operators and handymen now earn an average of $40,500 a year, with benefits raising the total to nearly $70,000, according to the Realty Advisory Board, which represents building owners.
The workers are seeking wage increases, while building owners are pushing to reduce benefit costs."

I laughed when I read this...and then I stopped laughing and shook my head.
