    If you’re a service worker who needs help, please apply: If you’re someone who can afford to give help, please donate: And everyone else, please help spread the word! We need to help each other through this crisis.

    This is disgusting. It's also wrong. The restaurant industry doesn't have a worker crisis. It has a wage crisis. People don't want to work for subminimum wages that corporate chains like Outback have fought to maintain — especially during a deadly pandemic!

    Is this what you believe of working people ? I don’t think this type of rhetoric is what should great customers. People might have moved on to other jobs that pay them a living wage during the pandemic. This laziness language restaurants are spreading is shameful.

    Good morning to every NYC Mayoral candidate who is not an NYPD bootlicker and who is not a fixer for a venture capitalist firm invested in making and keeping people poor.

    My 12-year-old asked me to post this, and aside from the fact that I clearly work for her (!), I think it's adorable and I'm rooting for her. Hope you'll help her win by voting and sharing:

    Who exactly are you listening to? The New Yorkers I’m listening to don’t think vendors in the subway are THE problem. The over-policing of vendors is an example of broken windows policing gone wrong and of misplaced priorities and resources. You should not go to jail for vending.

    You know what I hear over and over again - that NYC is not enforcing rules against unlicensed street vendors. I’m for increasing licenses but we should do more for the retailers who are paying rent and trying to survive.
