Thank you naps! She turns 20 next month (born on tax day) and I am very proud of her.
NYC has so much to offer - we live upstate in the Hudson River Valley - I wish NY and NYC weren’t so liberal!! I am very nervous about the return of the Occupiers. One of my 2L (2L = second year law student) other daughter’s boyfriend who is also a 2L - they will be 3L’s by that time, landed a summer associate position at a firm on Pine (near Wall Street) in lower Manhattan. He is just the opposite of the occupiers; hardworking, goal oriented, a true southern gentleman - I will be so angry if they cause disruptions!!
Back to topic - Sorry if I was off topic- I think this is tangential to the topic at hand - many jobs in NYC are tourist generated. The numbers in the article seem exaggerated to me, but I certainly have no facts to back that up.
You are right about NYC being liberal but being such a great place. I love the place and I like the state too. I was born in upstate. Those occupiers are such a pain. I am in Annapolis and they just got rid of them finally. They just trash up the place literally and figuratively. I am just so glad to see your daughters and boyfriend are becoming lawyers. We need good moral lawyers to fight for what is right. I sometimes wonder what FREEPERS are thinking when they bash the profession of law because we don’t need to discourage good conservatives from going into the profession because that might be what is wrong with America right now. Too many liberals becoming lawyers instead of good Americans.
