Moved in 2004. BED BUG INFESTATION treated with NO RESULTS contuinly 4 Years, my WHOLE TORSO COVERED WITH SORES.
My friend Jenny has been employed as a social worker in the Tenderloin for several years now. Her tweets about it (things like: "today: 4 dead clients, 1 murdered provider, 1 client defecated in the lobby, 1 dead dog, & 1 facebook friend posted pictures of nachos.") got me curious as to what her job is like. She was kind enough to answer some of my questions.
Mercy Housing
San Francisco, CA 94103
This is what it's like living at Mercy Housing: violent drug dealers try to kill people over $7 worth of crack. Cockroaches, bed bugs, mice everywhere. Terminix comes twice a month to spray and lay glue traps. This has been going on for over 8 years and the mice and the roaches are still there. Why would they completely eliminate the problem when they got a sweet contract going? Other tenants screaming at you for absolutely no reason at all. And the folks outside my window blasting stereo, yelling, screaming, fighting, almost every night. If Mercy wanted to be merciful they would let people just sleep in the park. Trust me you'd be better off. Here's Mercy Housing's screening process: Hey you got money to pay us? OK. You can move in.
