I once drifted a few sweaters which led to a mini beg bug scare. Luckily was able to catch the little aholes that same night so no infestation. If you're going to do drifting I strongly suggest you isolate the items and thoroughly clean and disinfect them asap.

In Manhattan there’s a couple of thrift stores by the new school that has good stuff from all the fashion students. I like beacons closet which is a little more pricey than a Salvation Army but you find more out there stuff. L train is more like basics and is cheaper. You’ll find a bunch of stores in Williamsburg/bushwick

Everyone sucks here but centra park could be a lot worse, and I really can’t see how much of these proposals would make it better.
Except banning peticabs and horses. Fuck them!
I kindof like the idea of painting the pedestrian lane. Maybe better demarcating the fast bike lane from the slow bike lane in some way.

I work in finance and my boss has done that on several occasions. He just tells them that they need to start looking for a new job ASAP and they are going to be fired in 6 months if not

There’s plenty of good finds. I’ve found tons of wool, silk, basics, denim for like $20. You jsut have to know where to look and take more time than you would in a regular retail store

If you're a black resident in NYC, that's 15.3 homicides per 100,000.
But if you're white, that's 0.8 homicides per 100,000.
If Oklahoma is unsafe at 9 homicides per 100,000, can you articulate why NYC can be considered a safe place for everyone?

100% chance your home town has better finds than NYC.
The rent alone means just getting donations and selling them for $10 doesn’t work. If you’re looking for $100 t shirts you’re in luck
There are plenty of cheap thrift stores but it’s all just a bunch of h&m and next

It's been awhile but my go tos were metropolis vintage and L train vintage. There's a ton of vintage and thrift stores in that area in general, the more mainstream ones being buffalo exchange, beacons closet and crossroads trading for consignment shopping. Also fun to check out search & destroy.

I genuinely appreciated this exchange! Thanks for the illumination!
One of my best friends is an actuary so it’s amusing to me that you approached it in a similar, good faith basis. Thanks for entertaining the convo and sharing so much food for thought*!

That's why there are outbreaks occurring in NYC public schools stemming from children allowed to attend classes without vaccination records or titer tests.

Sue you for breaching your employment contract and likely get you blacklisted within the industry. Take your 6 months of pay to do nothing.

Also the contracts typically only apply if you transfer to a similar job. In this case a technology job involving e-trading. It's a small specialized field, good chance you'll be blacklisted from a lot of future jobs if you violate it.

They probably have generous severance packages, which would be equivalent.

Bullshit. Democrats have had a plan for decades to reform the immigration system through expansion of courts and eliminating bureaucratic cruft in order to allow us to process more people faster. It’s Republicans who are the ones who are stonewalling that outright and then turning around and saying they’re “for open borders” and “weak on immigration.”
