Life in NYC: 2020 edition


This is satire. Or is it?

Enjoy the weekend.

We are supposedly disinfecting, and that is a lie. We are not disinfecting,” the contractor worker said. “If you clean your house with a dirty mop the whole day, you are not cleaning your house; you are simply spreading the same dirt inside your house.”

“Everyone may be unhappy, but nobody will speak because of this fear, because tomorrow there is no work,” a female worker told NY1 in Spanish.

She says she is fed up with being scared of working in conditions she claims are dangerous. She cleans the subways for the MTA, working for contractor LN Pro Services LLC.

She claims the company gives out the same old rags each day for an entire shift, and mops which are not cleaned properly after each shift, nor are they able to clean them during shifts.

“The mop ends as you see it: black. We started using it since this morning,” she said over cellphone video from inside a Queens subway station.

She says workers feel they’re only spreading dirt and, they presume, COVID-19 around the cars rather than removing it.

Sorry. No fear of NYPD going after two white guys. Nothing to see here. Just spoiled “conservative” snowflakes feeling sorry for themselves again.

Figgen hipster idiots. They are going to get us all killed. This what happens when you have indulgent parents. In this case perpetual adolescence will be fatal.

Another page in the Governor's playbook. Not.

I was making a complaint to the City online about a Storage Post location in Queens that's telling customers that they can't use their bathroom but are telling people to go across the street to the Fire Station. Are you kidding me? They don't let civilians in there.

When I was on the city website I was horrified to see that there is a way to complain about individuals not wearing masks, what time, where and you can uplodad their photo. This is total invasion of privacy and eradication of rights. The City is encouraging people to spy on their neighbors. Unreal. For total nonsense.

I would go to my country or beach house if I had one in a hot minute. Of course I would get away from NYC in any kind of crisis.

Millennials leave NYC while homeless get placed into midtown hotels.

What can go wrong?
