1 00:00:00,040 --> 00:00:02,640 Speaker 1: Today I lift up by accidentally calling child Services on 2 00:00:02,720 --> 00:00:03,559 Speaker 1: my neighbor. 3 00:00:04,760 --> 00:00:05,200 Speaker 2: Auchi. 4 00:00:06,960 --> 00:00:08,639 Speaker 1: I moved into a new apartment in July. 5 00:00:08,720 --> 00:00:09,760 Speaker 2: The building is brand new. 6 00:00:09,840 --> 00:00:12,880 Speaker 1: I'm on the second floor and there is commercial space 7 00:00:12,960 --> 00:00:15,720 Speaker 1: below me. They've been doing construction on that space for 8 00:00:15,760 --> 00:00:18,120 Speaker 1: a few weeks now. There's loud noises from the construction 9 00:00:18,160 --> 00:00:19,680 Speaker 1: that starts at seven am, and it goes like this, 10 00:00:21,600 --> 00:00:25,800 Speaker 1: oh yeah, or like that. 11 00:00:26,160 --> 00:00:29,800 Speaker 2: Noises you can jack my hammer, Oh yeah, jacket hard, baby. 12 00:00:30,320 --> 00:00:32,840 Speaker 1: And it goes from seven am to four pm most weekdays. 13 00:00:33,000 --> 00:00:35,159 Speaker 1: Some days they start before seven am, and this is 14 00:00:35,200 --> 00:00:37,960 Speaker 1: important to know. It's loud. It freaks out my cat, 15 00:00:38,120 --> 00:00:39,960 Speaker 1: and it makes my daytime challenging. 16 00:00:40,479 --> 00:00:43,560 Speaker 2: Yeah, honestly that it sucks. Sucks seven am. That's crazy. 17 00:00:44,159 --> 00:00:44,880 Speaker 2: I work from home. 18 00:00:45,000 --> 00:00:47,680 Speaker 1: Many times during business calls, I have to keep stopping 19 00:00:47,720 --> 00:00:50,239 Speaker 1: my call and meeting my mic because the construction is 20 00:00:50,280 --> 00:00:50,840 Speaker 1: too bad. 21 00:00:51,000 --> 00:00:51,320 Speaker 2: Geez. 22 00:00:51,600 --> 00:00:54,600 Speaker 1: The law here states that construction noise must be during 23 00:00:54,680 --> 00:00:57,800 Speaker 1: the hours of seven am until six pm during the week, 24 00:00:58,000 --> 00:01:00,800 Speaker 1: so it's legal to have noise during those hours. Sucks, 25 00:01:01,040 --> 00:01:05,240 Speaker 1: but it's legal. I reiteritate. I have been very frustrated 26 00:01:05,280 --> 00:01:08,160 Speaker 1: with the noise. Op I can tell think we get it, 27 00:01:08,240 --> 00:01:10,679 Speaker 1: and not just the construction noise above me. As a 28 00:01:10,680 --> 00:01:13,480 Speaker 1: dog that barks for thirty minutes at a time periodically 29 00:01:13,520 --> 00:01:15,920 Speaker 1: throughout the day, and my next door neighbor has a 30 00:01:15,959 --> 00:01:19,319 Speaker 1: young child that screams and screams and screams as children 31 00:01:19,319 --> 00:01:22,760 Speaker 1: often do, I get it. It's just all overwhelming and very, 32 00:01:22,880 --> 00:01:26,880 Speaker 1: very frustrating. I think that's a battle. You just can't 33 00:01:26,880 --> 00:01:30,280 Speaker 1: call a forest or something a forest. They've been starting 34 00:01:30,280 --> 00:01:32,840 Speaker 1: the construction noise before seven am a few days. This 35 00:01:32,920 --> 00:01:38,800 Speaker 1: week day, at six fifty am, I had enough. I 36 00:01:38,920 --> 00:01:43,160 Speaker 1: was tired, I was pissed, and my cat was freaking out. Yeah, 37 00:01:43,200 --> 00:01:45,720 Speaker 1: so I called New York City Complaint Line in three 38 00:01:45,760 --> 00:01:48,160 Speaker 1: poe one to file a noise complaint since I know 39 00:01:48,320 --> 00:01:51,600 Speaker 1: the construction shouldn't start till seven am and it was 40 00:01:51,600 --> 00:01:52,240 Speaker 1: six fifty. 41 00:01:52,320 --> 00:01:52,840 Speaker 2: That's right. 42 00:01:53,320 --> 00:01:55,800 Speaker 1: I tell the operator of the situation, I'm doing a 43 00:01:55,800 --> 00:01:59,200 Speaker 1: little venting. You operators work from home doing the pandemic. 44 00:01:59,360 --> 00:02:02,080 Speaker 1: Imagine to get your job done well. Loud, good noise 45 00:02:02,160 --> 00:02:05,120 Speaker 1: is coming from three different directions, So we go through everring, 46 00:02:05,360 --> 00:02:08,079 Speaker 1: So we go through everything. The operator opened a ticket 47 00:02:08,080 --> 00:02:10,720 Speaker 1: with the appropriate construction agency to make sure to address 48 00:02:10,760 --> 00:02:13,080 Speaker 1: the work noise. She didn't ask about the dog and 49 00:02:13,080 --> 00:02:15,880 Speaker 1: the child screaming. I tell her about it, and this 50 00:02:15,919 --> 00:02:17,120 Speaker 1: is where the fucking happens. 51 00:02:17,400 --> 00:02:17,720 Speaker 2: Oh. 52 00:02:17,880 --> 00:02:22,280 Speaker 1: Apparently the child screaming triggered a mandatory report for a 53 00:02:22,400 --> 00:02:26,160 Speaker 1: child wellness check. I told her no, I don't want that, 54 00:02:26,480 --> 00:02:28,880 Speaker 1: but appears that I said the right keywords are something 55 00:02:29,120 --> 00:02:31,840 Speaker 1: that they had concerns about child neglecting. 56 00:02:31,919 --> 00:02:34,560 Speaker 2: Oh. Man, fuck. I tried to stop it. Well. 57 00:02:34,760 --> 00:02:38,120 Speaker 1: The police arrived twenty minutes ago to the next door 58 00:02:38,160 --> 00:02:41,000 Speaker 1: neighbor's apartment to do a wellness check. I overheard the 59 00:02:41,000 --> 00:02:44,079 Speaker 1: woman saying, Tommy, who reported it? But the place we're 60 00:02:44,080 --> 00:02:46,400 Speaker 1: saying it was anonymous. Eventually the police said, hey, we 61 00:02:46,440 --> 00:02:48,160 Speaker 1: get a kid scream but we have to follow up 62 00:02:48,200 --> 00:02:48,720 Speaker 1: on the report. 63 00:02:48,800 --> 00:02:49,360 Speaker 2: Someone left. 64 00:02:49,840 --> 00:02:52,600 Speaker 1: Now I have my new neighbor, probably vivid that someone 65 00:02:52,639 --> 00:02:55,120 Speaker 1: called the cops on her because her kid is loud. 66 00:02:55,280 --> 00:02:57,080 Speaker 1: I've never met her. It wasn't my intention to have 67 00:02:57,120 --> 00:02:59,920 Speaker 1: a freaking cops come. I just wanted the construction noise 68 00:03:00,080 --> 00:03:00,440 Speaker 1: to stop. 69 00:03:01,320 --> 00:03:03,839 Speaker 2: You know, I think this actually presents an opportunity. What's 70 00:03:03,840 --> 00:03:07,320 Speaker 2: the opportunity. So the kid is making loud noises? I 71 00:03:07,360 --> 00:03:09,639 Speaker 2: would like, you know, walking like Oh, bump to Oh hey, 72 00:03:09,680 --> 00:03:11,840 Speaker 2: you knew olah blah blah blah. You know it would 73 00:03:11,840 --> 00:03:16,640 Speaker 2: be a shame if someone would happen you kid. You 74 00:03:16,680 --> 00:03:19,799 Speaker 2: know I feel that kid. I heard someone put him 75 00:03:20,200 --> 00:03:22,120 Speaker 2: right into the construction. 76 00:03:21,760 --> 00:03:25,080 Speaker 1: Noises and then we'll see who's really louder, the kid 77 00:03:25,440 --> 00:03:29,000 Speaker 1: or the construction. Don't want to put that baby too 78 00:03:29,080 --> 00:03:32,440 Speaker 1: close to nails. Someone might get hurt. You know what 79 00:03:32,520 --> 00:03:36,080 Speaker 1: if OP owns the police, who polices the police? 80 00:03:36,600 --> 00:03:38,640 Speaker 2: Have you seen that? You don't want tricking?
