Shocker: Occupy Wall Street Protesters Do Not React Well To Occupy Wall Street Job Fair
Derek and John Tabacco, the founders of the Free Wall Street Now movement, appeared as guests on Your World With Neil Cavuto Monday, just moments after wrapping up the first Occupy Wall Street job fair. With 400 jobs across various levels of employment being offered, the Tabacco brothers deemed it, “an exciting day,” before revealing some of the actions taken by the protesters to drive them away.
“A small faction of them surrounded us,” Derek said. “They started throwing bird seed at our feet. They kind of disrupted us a little bit.” The group numbered about 50 or 60, Derek explained, and the birdseed was used to attract a storm of pigeons to their area.
“Occupiers were getting ornery,” John added, noting that they had to shut the job fair down early because protesters were swearing at them, yelling in their faces, and spitting on them. “They got kind of pissed off about it,” he said.
Cavuto played two clips of Occupy protesters, asking what they thought about the job fair. One man believed the job fair was trying to “undercut” the movement, while another said he was too busy working the OWS kitchen to find a paying job. Although the brothers said they got a positive response from people who had come by, hearing about the job fair, none of the occupiers in Zuccotti Park wanted to hear about the job opportunities, even though many of the protesters the Tabaccos encountered during their first anti-protest told them they couldn’t find jobs, and that was why they were protesting.
“We’re out there trying to do something positive, and not one occupier came over to us and handed in a resume,” John explained, “It kind of shows that their argument is disingenuous.”
