Cool, then lets fire all COs who are 85% PoC and 40% women because some WFHers from Reddit said rikers isn’t a nice place.

Do you work on Rikers? Do you know what actually goes on there or what it’s like working there?

I don’t think a new second ave subway station is going to be on the top of their of spending list. It cost $2.7 billion per mile for the last segment. Also, these are union jobs, you can’t just fire them.

Fare box revenue is a lot higher of a percentage than I thought it was. Imagine if we somehow had a system that made it impossible to jump the turnstile.

Reworking the entire subway system to have conductorless cars would cost probably 100X what they pay the conductors in overtime.

They died.

The MTA lost 150+ employees to Covid. They need to have conductors to keep the trains running. You have to pay overtime if they work more than 40 hours a week. The civil servants aren’t the problem.

They actually haven’t stopped reporting on crime, it just isn’t allowed to be posted here out of the “megathread”

🙏🏼 Thankfully we get several posts a day about the real injustices in this city, Like a vehicle temporarily blocking a bike lane.

Bikes in general should be regulated similar to how cars and scooters are, including requiring mirrors. Require registration, and inspections for eBikes since clearly they’ve become a hazard to an extent. The manufacturers should be regulated to make sure they’re using approved safe batteries.

So many teens in this city are a lost cause. It’s a shame. Having an imitation pistol on them? Seriously?

These are people who never had consequences for their actions in life, and will probably never change.

What do you mean “thriveNYC” was a rousing success. /s

Javits center is actually being used for its intended purpose now, as opposed to during the height of Covid.

They were temperature controlled and those arent traditional “camping tents”, the walls are quite thick. It really wouldn’t have been unpleasant at all.

What a beautiful piece of history 🥰.

Didn’t we spend $1 billion of NYC taxpayer money on the “migrant crisis”

Did you happen to visit East NY or the south Bronx?

People downvoting have no consideration for the drastic rise in Asian hates crimes that have occurred over the past couple of years.

But but that’s CrImInAlIziNg PoVeRTy

The “comedian” who wrote this article DEFINITELY works from home.

The city’s with the high rates of crime in those “red states” are all run by democrats though.

Don’t forget the artwork! And crime has had a megathread now for the past few weeks so no need to worry about that!

Maybe a micromobility megathread is due then! Could have all of these discussions in centralized thread instead of all over the place.

What’s the point of having a micromobilityNYC sub when everything just gets reposted here?
