Earlier today, following JP Morgan Chase CEO Jamie Dimon’s testimony in front of the House Financial Institutions and Consumer Credit Committee regarding his company’s recent massive banking loss, Adriana Vasquez, a janitor who cleans the JP Morgan Chase tower in Houston, Texas confronted him with a simple question: “Despite making billions last year, why do you deny the people cleaning your buildings a living wage?”
Dimon evaded Adriana’s question but told her to “call his office” to arrange a meeting.
Each night, Vasquez cleans 24 bathrooms across 11 floors in the JP Morgan Chase tower in downtown Houston. “I work hard each and every day scrubbing 24 bathrooms just to support my children, to keep food on the table and a roof over my head – but it still isn’t enough,” explained Vasquez. “I traveled to Washington, DC to confront Jamie Dimon because it is not acceptable that while he makes billions, he denies the people cleaning his buildings a living wage.”
Dimon in the rough
What’s amazing is that she even got that close! See – they never learn the story of the French Revolution until somebody comes up close and sticks them or shoots ’em for causing all that pain. Then it’s an epidemic and nobody is safe.
