I’m a pretty bad offender on this: I eat out every lunch & dinner because it saves me time. I end up spending around $25-30/day. Does anyone else do this? submitted by /u/ROBOT-MAN [link] [comments]

I have lived in NYC for three years and never got to know my neighbors. They never knocked on my door, and I never knocked on theirs. The only time I saw them was when we waited for the elevator. It’s not like I didn’t want to know them, but it always felt intrusive to

I just had a delivery up there to 116th to find out I had to walk down two blocks and then back up to get to Amsterdam. How are they allowed to just close off a public street from pedestrians? Does Baruch college close off their plaza exclusive to students? No. It’s absurd that Columbia

Hi guys, So I am from Ireland but somehow over last few weeks I became obsessed with NYC mayoral race and I would love to hear some stories about people who might have met Śliwa in real life 🙂 I am glad Mamdani won, but Curtis seems absolutely fascinating submitted by /u/dumplingslover23 [link] [comments]

Moved abroad for a few years but came back to a tacky TikTok hellscape filled with 22 year olds. Where did all of the mid-30s to early 40s former residents go [in Manhattan]? submitted by /u/Odd-Move-3620 [link] [comments]

I need yall to help me! This is my first week at my new job and today my boss gave me 490 dollars for the 70 hours I worked this week (10 hours a day with no dayoffs!!) He said he pays starting workers 7 dollars an hour and that it goes up with time.

The context: I’m a beauty influencer and I am looking at all the STUFF I get mailed to me daily and reevaluating what to do with it all. Makeup, skincare, perfume, etc… With the holiday season approaching I was hoping for some leads on where I might be able to donate it to. I contacted

Hey all! I just moved to Manhattan a month ago chasing a job in hopes of a better career, though I’m dealing with some apartment concerns and was wondering if this is just how NYC operates. I moved into a new construction spot, 15 units, up in Harlem. I found out the day I moved

I voted earlier this morning and I signed my name the usual way, and they kept saying it was not how I registered. I’ve voted in every election for the past 8 years and I’ve never had this happen. She said I had “One more try” and then I’d have to do something. It was

Emergency rooms in NYC are so overcrowded and often you’re waiting on a gourney to be seen. I’ve been to emergency rooms in upstate NY in college and you’re seen much sooner. I get the thing of priority (obviously if you’re dying or come in an ambulance for an emergent reason, you’ll be soon later

Hi everyone, I have a question about gifts and what’s considered appropriate or thoughtful in Chinese culture. I’m a Hispanic American woman, born in NY and in my 30s, and I’ve been getting takeout from the same Chinese restaurant on my block for about eight years. The cashier is a Chinese woman around my age

Hello, any other New Yorkers on EBT who have no idea what they are going to do once November 1st When SNAPS gets cut? Where are you going for help, can anyone send me resources. I am trying to figure out what to do and the HRA is not helpful submitted by /u/Forsaken-Dot-3766 [link] [comments]

In June, I decided I wanted to date again after taking a 4 year break – I’ve been using hinge mostly and it feels like I’m consistently ghosted or I get the ‘I’m not ready for a relationship, cya bye’ text from men. I don’t know what to do anymore – I’m 24 and I’m

Tomorrow I have one event end at 5pm and another begin at 8:30 pm. It’s too late for most museums or the library and most movies I’d want to see start in the 4-5 range. I could always wander around Central Park, but I’ve been there a million times. I guess I could hunker down

Emergency vehicle background noise is the soundtrack of NY, but a couple of ambulances are ridiculous. The FDNY ambulances have their volume on 11. The other is Hatzolah which combine ambulance, fire truck and truck horns at the same time, so you don’t know which vehicle to look for. As well, they cruise gingerly and

I moved to nyc about 3 years ago but worked remotely most of that time. since I have my in office job I’ve been going into the office a few times a week, and honestly, it’s wearing me down. And for the record, I don’t even live far from the office, it’s not a long

I live in the bronx in a 6 story building, the other day I went outside to walk my dog and I noticed our lock had paper stuffed in it to prevent it from locking when closed. I removed the blockage and continued outside. On our stairs was a lady smoking crack with no shoes

I’m so sick and tired of going out to the woods or cubby hole and only meeting young 20-25 y/o lesbians. Where do the 30+ hot, cool, established lesbians hang out?! Where can I find them?! 🥺 submitted by /u/lucky-in-luxe [link] [comments]

I hear directly from and see family post on social media about the NYC mayoral race (from both sides), and I find myself growing annoyed by them. In fact it’s the ones aligned with me politically that I’m sometimes most annoyed by; I’m glad you agree but you don’t speak for us (stop saying “we”).
