Same is true for most office jobs in general but this sib loves its white collar cushy gigs and hates anything remotely blue collar

That's sweet but I have been here 25 years and I have no idea what the booth folks do. They did give out horrible masks when they were required on the subway. I do think they would call someone if an actual murder was going down but I am not certain about that. Glad you had fun!

There will be no one left to teach kids, remove garbage, police the streets, drive the ambulances, busses, etc at this rate. What, are we all supposed to move 2 hrs upstate and commute? Everyone? Who wants to do that?

> Davey said the metal and glass enclosures will not be removed but workers can return there during breaks or whenever they see fit

Hell, even affordable housing in some places will be like 2800 for people making 120k. At first you think it’s absurd until you realize dude next to you is paying 5k for the same layout

Not free, of course. At the same time, everyone deserves a safe, decent and clean place to live, and government should ensure that the right to housing is guaranteed.
If that means that the city pays for housing for the poor and indigent, so be it. In fact, the city saves approximately $1000 per person per month by moving people out of shelters and into apartments. Unless you want to abolish the shelter system, everybody wins by putting the formerly homeless into rental units.
Caveat emptor: I am a former homeless person whose rent is paid for by the city. I would like to work, but ageism prevents me from getting a job which pays decently and utilizes my experience and education. By paying for my apartment, I have dignity and privacy, and the city saves $12,000 annually.

Probably press charges before you and your angry mob attack another person unrelated to your cause

The oculus is an eye. It’s in its location because every year on 9/11 from 8:46am to 10:28am, the sun moves directly over the opening where the glass is and fills the oculus with light.
It’s a beautiful building, IMO. Most people I’ve met IRL seem to think so too but Reddit loves whining about it for some reason.

Not one time have these people been helpful. Not when your metro card gets glitched, not when the machine takes your money, they only took cash etc etc. They suck.

They’d have to get out to chase you then. But that requires leaving the booth.
