Ibrahim Majalo testifies on customer threats and account deactivation
Ibrahim Majalo says delivery work is not a crime and workers support families. He describes a Harlem customer threatening to kill him for ringing a bell and says his account was deactivated a year ago, leaving him stressed and without work.
Hello, my name is Ibrahim Majalo.
Thank you for giving me the opportunity to speak.
The city council needs to listen to the people who use the street to earn the living.
Delivery work is not a crime.
Many workers work hard to support their family and deliver food and essential items to people throughout the city because of their clothing, language, or immigrant identity.
We are assuming view which suspension the city should create, protect, learn and close the rule to reduce danger on the street.
Workers should not be viewed as the source of the problem.
Instead, we should be hard as of a solution.
I support in intro 0613-2026, which elect the city annual goal, which we need of the city include workers
safety in every street planning decision.
Document for the testimony for safe harbor street.
The intro 0613, but more or less, last month we created this job.
It's very dangerous.
Last time, a customer told me he was going to get killed.
Last October 19, I came in for delivery.
We packaged it.
When I ring the bell, the customer...
Tell me if you ring the bell again, I'm going to kill you.
I have a customer address in Harlem, 321 West 112th Street.
When I ring the bell in the morning, when I leave the package outside, somebody takes it.
That's why when I come delivery, I have to ring the bell if the house is in the street.
When I ring the bell, the customer goes outside, he tells me if I ring the bell, I'm going to kill you.
I say, you have a package for delivery.
He tells me if I ring the bell again, I'm going to kill you.
When I leave a package, somebody takes it, he can't report to me.
That's why.
It's not easy.
Last time, I deactivated my account one year ago.
I don't have any job right now.
I'm so stressing about that.
Thank you for sharing your testimony.
That's a very dangerous position to be placed in.
I have a customer address here.
I have a last time package.
I called the support to complain.
He didn't tell me nothing about that.
Thank you for sharing your testimony.
Next.
