Experienced the New York rite of passage today that is being wined and dined at the Stuyvesant Town Leasing Office on 14th and 1st.

Client: Can you scan this printout for me and make it a PDF so I can email it to someone?
Me: Sure, but since I’m scanning a printout, it’s not going to look that great.
Client: I have the original file that was emailed to me if you think that will work better.

I will never be someone who says that New York is the greatest city in the world. There are thousands of other spots I’d rather be at times. It can be dark, lonely, cold, hot, and downright miserable. But I will always believe that New York will make your head spin over and over again, even when you think you’ve seen it all.
