So who do you expect to work this type of job in NYC, and for what pay? Kids can't do it because they're in school, and retirees are retired. Maybe the employer should make the job temporary too, like 5 years max, so that young adults don't stay in the same type of job forever, and give more young adults a chance.

Why I am I not surprised nobody responded to my post

At this point, NYCHA should probably just not charge any rent. What percentage of the overall budget was funded by rent payments? Many lower-income working people were disproportionately affected by the lockdowns, as they couldn't work remotely.

There are thousands of other city jobs. She should use her experience to move up/around her agency or to other agencies. She lacks ambition.

When I moved here LESS THAN 25 years ago from a third world country I was making minimum wage working in retail. I could have found a way to get on welfare and called it a day.

I lived in the hood. Sent myself to CUNY. Applied for better paying jobs. Had a plan. Now I earn a comfortable living and I am a home owner. I have many friends and family with the same life experience as me.

She sat in public housing for 25 YEARS preventing other families from being able to access scarce housing and have the nerve to not pay her super cheap rent on top of it. Such a waste of space.

..because you make zero sense? I don't subscribe to the fantasy that business owners/the wealthy are "job creators" but I also.font subscribe to he fantasy that "without low wage workers society would collapse".

Guess what. If the city didn't fund these schemes with taxpayer money, people would figure out how to take care of their parents.

How did the world function before all of these taxpayer funded schemes.

Even 20 years ago, home care aids were very rare. How did people get by?

So when she moves to the city job, who takes her spot and for how much compensation? That's what I'm asking. I'm not asking about her ability to secure other employment.

Another person who wants a fake job? Work an hour pushing a few papers, get paid like you work an hour pushing a few papers.
