No need to take the quote so literal. "Working in pajamas" at this point is simply a colloquialism for working from home.
And no need to take my objection so literally. The point was your trivializing -- or wilfully disregarding -- my actual and valid reasons for preferring WFH.
@Esacni, I tried to rep you for this post, but not surprisingly, it seems I've already done so recently.
Adams doesn't care about the delis. What Adams is afraid of is a decrease in city tax revenue and then having to slash the welfare state dramatically. There's no way to solve this problem then for him. Hell get eaten alive by the left in this city.
Perhaps you didn't fully read my post. If you did, I don't believe the word "pajamas" is given as a reason why I prefer to work from home. Instead, you'd see that I mentioned a commuting cost of over $20 a day, 4 unpaid hours a day spent getting ready for work and commuting, and the realistic risk of being a victim of a plethora of homeless, druggies and loonies. Without knowing my financial situation or my family responsibilities, you think I should be more concerned about someone else's well-being than my own, reducing my reasons to wanting to work in my pajamas. Says a helluva lot more about you than it does about me.
Edited to add: This may come as a surprise to you,, but wherever I am, I still have to eat. Since I'm not a farmer, I have to buy my food, so I'm always supporting a business. The only difference is that I'm now supporting businesses in my own neighborhood. Is that a problem?
Yeah, for the Midtown guy
Wonder what his LL's gonna do

So maybe you should take up your issues with the government
Or vote with your feet
You anti-welfare people are all talk and no action
You work from home, don't have to commute, and you hate the politics here. So what's keeping you? Why are you not running for office under the party of your choice? Is it easier to just perch yourself on the proverbial window ledge, and warble your political beliefs from sun-up to sundown, at anyone who bothers reading? Sounds like self-inflicted torture to me.
"Take what has been given". Mind completely broken and corrupted. My point proven.
I don't hate nor love the politics here. My politics is libertarian. I'm socially very liberal. People can do whatever they want as long as it doesn't infringe on the liberty of others.
Why not leave? Why dont Ukrainians just give up their land to the Russians? This city doesn't belong to the parasites, criminals, and and their political vote buyers. There are plenty of hard working people in this city. Why should we leave? You think people like you and welfare class built this city and keep it what it is day in and day out?
Your talk of running for office is utterly foolish but you must know that?

I love how people twist their words to fit their agenda
"take what has been given"
Maybe I should have said granted instead? Everyone wants to whip out dictionaries in the midst of discussion.
But I'll spell it out loud and clear since I have some time
When I used the term "take what has been given," my point was to say is a fruitless exercise on your part to blame someone for utilizing a system, that they did not set up themselves. The government is the one who instituted welfare, why don't you ever place blame on them instead of the poors?

So, I should care about the Midtown business owner, but you don't care about my neighborhood business owner. Okay, you're better than me.
You were not thinking about your neighborhood business owner before Covid, you're simply operating out of convenience. And there's nothing wrong with that, but let's be honest.

He thinks he's clever constructing arguments but a 6th grade debate club kid would.run circles around his logic.
See that's part of the reason I can't really take you seriously in discussion, it's because of the insults, which just shows me that you don't have the capacity to partake in these types of discussions. The name-calling bothers me none, but it really drags the conversation down.

My man, the parasites in this city work hand in hand with the politicians to craft the system. You think the politicians craft and expand the welfare system because they're so generous? Without one the other wouldn't exist.
