Cops seek Qns. creep

THE TRASH-talking is over at Sims recycling plant in Brooklyn.

The facility agreed Thursday to let its private sanitation workers vote on whether to join a union — ending the rumblings of a possible strike.

The vote will come Friday, said Teamsters Local 210, which has been battling to unionize the hourly workers at the Sunset Park recycling facility.

As part of the deal hashed out between Sims Municipal Recycling and Local 210, a neutral arbiter will oversee Friday’s vote.

Sims management also agreed to remain neutral and not attempt to sway workers against joining the Teamsters.

The private sanitation workers, whose wages start at $14 and can go up to more than $20 with special skills, had been trying to join Local 210 since December.

“We stood our ground and fought for a fair process, free of intimidation, and now we have it,” said Jordy Lopez, a Sims recycling worker and leader in the union organizing drive. “We are ... humbled by the support we have received.”

A Sims spokeswoman said the Australian-owned company had wanted a secret vote officiated by the National Labor Relations Board before it recognized Local 210 as a bargaining entity for the workers.

“As we have said many times, we respect the right of our employees to unionize if they so choose,” a Sims spokeswoman said in a statement.

Some of its workers at other plants in New York and New Jersey already belong to a union, the company noted.

George Miranda, secretary-treasurer of Teamsters Local 210, praised the Brooklyn Sims workers for standing firm.

“These workers showed that when you stick together, you win,” he said. A SERIAL mugger has robbed three women in Queens, knocking one unconscious and clobbering an 82-year-old victim in the head, officials said Thursday.

“I didn’t even see him because it was such a powerful hit,” said Rebecca Pinzariu, who the creepy crook targeted on Feb. 8, on 70th Road near 110th St. in Forest Hills. The mugger grabbed her purse and left her sprawled on the ground.

The violent attack left Pinzariu with a gash across her head.

“I’m OK. I’m getting better. The MRI didn’t find anything serious, but I’m still dizzy,” she said.

Pinzariu was the second of the mugger’s three victims, officials said.

On Jan. 18, he waved a knife at a 63-year-old woman on the corner of 65th Ave. and 99th St. in Rego Park. He then punched her in the face and grabbed her purse, cops said.

Both women were treated at Forest Hills Hospital.

A third woman was knocked out by the attacker while she was walking on Harrow St. near Continental Ave. around 5:45 p.m. on Tuesday. The 53-year-old’s purse was stolen, according to police.

Pinzariu, who has lived in Forest Hills for more than 20 years, said she refuses to live in fear. “The police are on top of it,” she said. “They told me not to be afraid. You can’t live like that.”
