I learned CPR from the Red Cross. I became certified to handle O.C. Spray/Chemical agent, Handcuffing, and Tactical Restraint  with Essex County Police Academy. I learned how to deal with a large scale of residents on a day by day basis. The training I received showed the residents I was capable to handle life threaten situations.

Management: Basically remain professional/clean at all times. Be on time to relieve the other officer from duty. Respect all staff members at all times. Use company policy/procedures properly. Be mindful of others feelings/thoughts.

The co-workers were good to work with. We always moved as a unit in all situations. We always respect each other on job and off the job. We are just like a family: GET THE JOB DONE NO MATTER WHAT!

Dealing with some of Gang members around the area cause they create a hostile/ life threaten situation which causes residents and officers to make a split decision to ensure Quality OF LIFE was Safe.

Working with different law-enforcement agencies and ensuring the well being of residents living at the housing authority.

*A typical day at work will be, me in the office dispatching & staying focus on all cameras to ensure the residents & team-mates safety. *I've learned to control the cameras with time & learning the new i-trak system for reports & putting in personal files.
*management is management.  
*My Co-Workers was awesome.
*The hardest part of the job is, having to go back to the cameras for professionals like, IPD (Irvington Police Department) & when a apartment check has to be done and it's a DOA (Dead On Arrival) 
*The most enjoyable part of my job is, being around people/residents knowing i gave my 100% each day.

Irvington housing Authority staff and office culture is highly unprofessional and highly unorganized. I have never worked for a company that was so out of tune. Very hostile work environment just the way they even speak to each other as staff and the residents they serviced. 

The job is non-stop someone is always complaining.  We try to work together in order to make the company flow like it should. There needs to be more consistency at the Irvington Housing Authority.

My position though always receiving positive feedback was given to a employee with political ties to the Mayors office.  After performing the cleanup of a dysfunctional facility I was released instead of being granted employment.

There is a culture of political favoritism.  If you're not politically connected, you're not protected, regardless of how well you do your job. It's a very stressful environment to work in.

I'm so happy I got layed off because the company and City buget could not pay all the employees properly.   Great people but poor management and work.

Everyday is a new day to make a change or it can be challenging but rewarding at the end of the day to make our residence happy and a safe place for them to live.

Always were complaints from tenants about leaks or no heat, and staff does nothing about it. Most tenants are elderly and will ask what did they do to be treated the way they do.
