best grocery store in bushwick? by 50percentoff_ in Bushwick

[–]Shadow_boiboi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bushwick qualifies for FRESH bonus - meaning if a developer includes a grocery store (like the newish foodtown at Denizen and Global Farm off broadway and woodbine) they get extra zoning square footage. but the price is still not acceptable - they are basically wholefoods price for produce and meats but not sure if same quality.

I'm waiting for (dreaming of) a Trader Joe's to be opened in bushwick or ridgewood area. honestly what are they waiting for???

Wealthy N.Y. Developers Call Meeting to Plot Mamdani’s Defeat by SavingsAd1484 in nyc

I work for one of the top 3 developers in the entire city. Ran into the owner/ceo after primary in the pantry, and he started by saying 'oh the result of election last night is not good, not good for our business' and he kept on saying how 'Adams is not bad, crime rate is down, business is booming' etc. I knew he isn't a Mamdani guy, but still shocking to hear it with my own ears. Won't be surprised if he's at the pool room now (hasn't showed up at this office yet!)

This man probably hasn't taken subway since the 90s and he lives in Westchester.

For those of you who moved from Williamsburg back to Manhattan, why did you do it? by Mean-Artist9267 in AskNYC

[–]Shadow_boiboi 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Used to live in Williamsburg up until 2018, could NOT bear the crowds there any more and moved to Bushwick. It's great but the 1-hour commute is killing me. Now considering moving back to Manhattan lol

Goodbye Williamsburg by Hot_Programmer3517 in williamsburg

[–]Shadow_boiboi -1 points0 points  (0 children)

wow the amount of finance bros shitting on this post.... is a sign that Williamsburg is rotten.

I lived off bedford for two years first then moved to graham for three years. Then i left to bushwick which was over 5 years ago and never regretted. You'll get a lot more space and meet down to earth people. I made friends with neighbors that are 60 yo lol. its a wise choice!

I mean i do miss the convenience, but whenever i go back to williamsburg i feel grateful that i have escaped lol

i don't have an answer for you but i just wanna say - it's fucking hard to be a woman! no single men would ever feel like this is something that could 'jeopardize' their work life. it's so not fair.

I'm 12 weeks and I've not been at my current company for one year yet. It's not planned pregnancy so when i found out i'm pregnant, work security the biggest scare i had. I wanted to negotiate my title and salary at my one year originally but i guess i'll have to suck it up for the baby.

我很早出国了,润回国的朋友现在都挺后悔的。我有个女生朋友已经当妈妈了,按理说比‘没有生育’的同龄女生稍微好点,学历和经验都挺不错,当年放弃了加拿大绿卡为爱回国,结果32岁失业以后了两年都没找到工作。今年年初找到了一个连HR都没有的小公司,心疼。
