The sign it was holding was in ebonics :)

I forget the exact horrible english but it was funny.

It will only take 10 seconds to replace the person as so many want to work there on staten island.

I got lucky and have a real job on staten island. It pays Manhattan wages.

FEW jobs pay too well on Staten Island or have room to advance.

It was Dumb to blow it.

But stupid people do stupid things.

Hi Dp...

My experience with Staten Island is very limited.

Apparently one of my grandparents is buried there. So, when we were little kids, the family (mostly from Brookly, although we lived in Newark, NJ) would go to Staten Island once a year to pay respects.

The kids, myself included, didn’t get it, acted like brats, and ran around the cars.

You can probably guess which cemetery, knowing the Island.

It was the 50’s, but the grandparent in question probably died ca. 1930, and I’d guess even then that burial plot land was cheaper in Staten Island.
