NYC Mayor Eric Adams to big banks: We need you back in the office

Thoughts? He mentions accountants specifically, but it’s the same idea I suppose. I remember a lot of people here were rooting for him.

The guy called chefs and baristas and many other professions low skill, and low academic capabilities. His communication skills are awful. I don't owe NYC anything. Pay so much in taxes, and in return I get crazy people on the streets, a District Attorney who announced he will not go after people unless they commit murder/sexual assault, delayed and dirty public transit, I can go on...

I don’t see anything wrong with what he said, although it could’ve been phrased differently. He basically said low skilled workers don’t have the skills to work office jobs. If things shut down or they stop working in restaurants, coffee shops and other stores, they can’t just go work office jobs. 
 

Maybe he shouldn’t have called them “low skilled” but other than that he’s right.

 

You don't think cooking is a technical job? Highly suggest you watch some videos, and you'll see a lot of effort goes into the food served on your table. At decent restaurants, even a waiter's job is really technical as they know a menu with 40+ items like the back of their hand and can intelligently talk to you about what's in the food/drinks.
