Someone is
always moving in or out at Pac Tower and we’re sad to see anyone go (usually). Typically moving takes place during working
hours at the end of the month. The itinerant
person reserves the elevator to load up their worldly possessions and has a
professional mover come to take them away. We LIKE that person and are sorry to see them
go.
However, that
is not always the case.
WORST CASE
SCENERIO: A person moves out without telling the Lobby Office in advance. They don’t reserve the elevator. They move out on a weekend (not allowed).They
move out at night (not allowed).They move out DO-IT-YOURSELF style. Allowed, but not always appreciated and below
explains why!
Since it’s
too late to call Goodwill, they jam their lava lamp, antique hope chest, rocking
and wooden spinning wheel down our preciously small trash chute (which is for FOOD
trash). This sets off an ear-splitting
cacophony and ultimately creates a Mt. Everest pile of junk in our dumpster
that will quickly and easily block the entire trash chute – sometimes going all
the way to the 12th floor.
And on a weekend when there is no staff here to fix it!
Next, they
use our gorgeous, brand new shopping carts to schlep their last incidentals to
their car which is parked way down on Wilbur and Bayard. Then they leave the cart on the curb for it to
be adopted by its next owner, not Pac Tower.
So, owners or
renters or owners who rent to people, please, we beg of you, please hear our
cry when you kiss us good-bye.
