S’no thank you.
The Mamdani administration failed for hours to attract any emergency shovelers at one Queens garage Sunday — while planning to try to dig out New Yorkers with a fourth of the force the city used for its last mega-storm.
Despite Mayor Zohran Mamdani’s widespread attempted promotion of the city’s public-fueled emergency shoveling program, a sign-up sheet at the Maspeth Sanitation garages was empty, city workers told The Post during a visit late Sunday morning.
“I haven’t seen anybody sign up yet today. No, no one,” the employee said.
There were also no signs of shovelers lining up for work at 299 South St. at a Sanitation garage on Manhattan’s Lower East Side. Workers there declined comment to The Post. …

Ya, propose a 127-billion-dollar boondoggle, raise taxes almost 10% defund the police and then tell the city residents to volunteer to shovel themselves out.
Welcome to the warm brace of collectivism.
Makes sense. They voted for gimme stuff, not shoveling snow with or without IDs.
Tickets and fines for those unshoveled sidewalks at residences :)
Enjoy the snow.
I’m amazed nobody in NYC wants $20 per hr for snow shoveling. Aren’t kids home from school today? The kids should be lining up.
The warm embrace of collectivism should melt the snow in instant!
Kids today expect to be head of the snow shovelers association with a 6 figure salary..not laborers
They need ID no illegals....lol.
I thought kids were becoming conservative, to spite their AWFL libiot parents.
The gal with the straight hoe looks ready for business!
It’s a lie nobody signed up. I saw the application form just yesterday that Mister Shovel Deeznuts submitted.
Not for free, oh no.
$19.14 an hour and $28.71 per hour after 40 hours.
But you need 5 different forms of ID to apply.
Strange that Mamdami is against Voter ID.

The warmth of communism.......
Here is my take. When you get 2 feet of snow you are worried about digging your self out. The young and hearty aren’t going to sign their lives away for $20 per hour when they can get 40to 50 under the table. When you get 2 feet of snow you need snow throwers and bobcats to clear out snow,
Because they need to have 5 FORMS OF ID!! FIVE!!! TO SHOVEL SNOW, BUT NONE TO VOTE!
Well, here's one for your right now!

Mamdani held a press conference to announce he was declaring a state of emergency ahead of the winter storm, saying all city streets, highways and bridges will be closed to non-emergency traffic starting at 9 p.m. Sunday and remaining in effect until noon Monday.
The blanket restriction applies to all vehicles, including cars, trucks, scooters and e-bikes, with narrow exemptions granted only for essential emergency movements and critical service workers.
***********
I suspect prospective snow shovelers are considering themselves restricted from traveling until at least noon Monday (today).
we got 20 dollars per driveway 30 years ago. no body hustles anymore
