Nobody giving you nothing would mean you paying rent yourself 100% in an apartment you got all by yourself.

The very least you could do is acknowledge being given an apartment and be grateful for it.
Whats the size of your apartment?
Oh wait that's right your the lady with a 1 bedroom for you and a 3 year old and that isn't good enough for you and you want a 2 bedroom. How about you go rent a 2 bedroom on your own then....
Like I said until I qualify for it I'll be staying there!! and when I qualify for my two bedroom I'll also be moving to one....

Taking advantage of other's hardwork??? I pay taxes too!!...so, it's not only other people's taxes...like I said "I'll be in nycha until I qualify"....

Re-read your above sentence. It is a great example of why your command of the language is being questioned. Since you're talking about leaving NYCHA, you shouldn't be using the word "qualify" in this context. We who are abhored by NYCHA's existence don't "qualify" not to live there. We earned it.

Lol. When I read what she wrote I skipped right to addressing it. I didn't see that you already did.

Well, isn't is depending on income and I won't always have the same salary, the point is that you're addressing everybody as the same...I'm a person that works and that's why I say qualify...right now I qualify don't know if in the future..

So, I guess you talk and don't know the nycha standards...It's depending on your income if your income exceeds the standards you no longer qualify....

You're not getting what we're saying. The way you wrote your statement, you said that you would leave when you qualify: "I'll be in NYCHA until I qualify". That makes no sense.

Well, I guess you do not know that NYCHA is for people that qualify, depending on people's income..Your family may be eligible if your total gross family income is not more than the specified amount for example a family of two the income limit is $55,000 if I exceed that amount I no longer qualify.

I'm not trying to argue my thing is that you judge everyone that lives in NYCHA as the government giving you but like me many people that live in these apts.. work and actually manage better because of the low income rent.
