I haven’t been on the subway since March. I walk places I used to take the train to, and my definition of “too far to walk” is now three times as far as it used to be.

Yeah- rarely, and it’s been getting more crowded. Also- not everyone is wearing a mask (it’s extra ironic when they’re sitting underneath the “how to wear a mask sign”) but there’s no enforcement

Nope, never again.

I used it two weekends ago and it was pretty good. Not one soul in the train station and everyone kept their distance in the train and wore masks.

Only if absolutely necessary but not my first choice. Millions spent on MTA pensions, one would think they have some money in the budget to renovate subways and for cleaning maintenance.

Yes. It’s been uneventful every time

Yup, take it weekly to get to an allergist appointment. People aren't like, two meters social distancing, but generally I've observed riders still try to keep a seat or two between them & the next person over

Yes but I only take the subway during off peak hours. It's typically pretty empty so easy to maintain social distance.

How would you recommend I talk about my negotiation skills in an interview?
