Me. Don’t want to waste money on rent and I feel like I can find a cheaper apartment than the one I’m currently. Rent prices seem to be dropping everyday.

If I wasn’t rent stabilized, I would temporarily move somewhere much cheaper in a heartbeat. What’s the point of paying NY prices if you don’t get what you’re paying for, which is proximity to stuff that isn’t even open, and proximity to people you aren’t even allowed to be near.

Me!!!!! Who knows when NYC will be back to normal...

We relocated (2 small kids) but will come back right before our lease ends to move to a cheaper neighborhood. Hopefully prices will drop by then.

I never left. Real estate runs city hall those prices won’t go down much. This city is dominated by real estate interests and they will all get taken care of first.

There is way too much inventory at the silly end of prices and way too little affordable. Coronavirus won’t change that. They just fridge the big units until some Russian mobster needs to hide assets so that Putin can’t steal them back, he buys a 9 million dollar condo in a matchstick building and uses it as a bank account the government can’t seize. This the the purpose of the upper end of the market - solid investments for the kleptocracy set. Why do you think so many Russian billionaires own sports teams? You can’t repossess them extrajudicially.

Actual living in New York people are not considered first. The big money always gets pole position

He also said he’s coming with gf. I said im happy to write him a personal reference letter, but wont be able to get him a business one. Is this rude?

Hi, we're searching for a job in HR for my wife. She's an MBA from India and has 10 years of work experiences across various HR roles in FMCG and Tech. Her last role was a HR BP and India site lead for a US based semiconductor major.

My VP keeps asking for next year’s roadmap but every week wants it formatted differently and it’s driving me crazy. They don’t seem to know what they want and I have so much else to do than tweak the layout and colors and notations a few times each week. When I’ve asked what format and level of info the CTO prefers, my VP says they don’t know and I need to be okay with ambiguity. I’m losing any patience and good will I had.
