School Janitor? Earn over $100,000 a Year - and be a Peeping Tom

One disgusting/amusing news item today is a local story.

Francis Tracey likes to peep through windows.

Is that news? Not really. One thing about New York City...buildings are thrown up opposite each other and people routinely amuse themselves by looking into other peoples' windows. Often with binoculars. Remember a movie called "Rear Window?"

It's also NOT illegal to do this. While America is called the "United States," and states can vary with their laws, almost no state or city absolutely bans peeping into somebody's window. The rule is you can't be on somebody's property when you do it. You can't loiter at somebody's window sill...but you can take out your binoculars and peep from across the street!

"ANY HOO," to quote a famous Dutch Douche pretending to use an American slang term Americans don't use...

This is a local news story?

Francis Tracey, a substitute janitor, would wander up onto the roof of the school building, and look across at the apartment building where, perhaps, he might see some woman getting dressed.

Somehow somebody saw this, alerted the NY Post, and a juicy story got the FRONT PAGE.

The inference is that if you peep at women in your spare time, you must also be peeping into women's bathrooms and locker rooms, and you must be a child molester, and you can't possibly be anything but a MONSTER.

As if the staff at the NY Post could claim they don't surf porn? As if there are no dirty magazines to be found in the school building or in the desks of any faculty members?

What got MY attention was that a fucking JANITOR...somebody who has NO great education, and doesn't need to know very much except how to lock a lock, oil a hinge, or wash a bathroom stall...is making a fucking SIX FIGURE SALARY.

Talk about WASTE. What bothers me about Francis Tracey isn't that he's peeping...it's that he's BREEDING. Guys like this are making enough of a salary to have a comfortable apartment and raise a few brats. He could have a half-dozen of 'em on that salary. PLUS he has tenure. He has security. Nobody's downloading his music off a forum and ruining his life. Nobody's scabbing him by being a freelance janitor working at a lower price. Nobody's telling him to PAY to be a janitor and make his money selling t-shirts.

When you live in the city (or even in the country) it's your responsibility to pull the shades. It's not against the law to peep.

Should it be against the law to peep? Maybe so. But that would mean the cops and private detectives would have to explain why they're keeping surveillance and training binoculars at somebody's window.

What SHOULD be against the law is overpaid government workers. $100,000 to be a fucking JANITOR? THAT'S NOT WHAT I WANT TO SEE.
