Lunchtime options are even worse in midtown than downtown.
So true. When I was temping, I worked in just about every neighborhood south of 59th St, and by far the worst lunch options are in East midtown. Which is where I work now. Feh.
Now I did a job. I got nothing but trouble since I did it, not to mention more than a few unkind words as regard to my character so let me make this abundantly clear. I do the job. And then I get paid.

When my mom and I took the Metro in DC last month, I had to constantly tell her to stand on the right of the escalator to let everyone walk past on the left. She kept on shifting to the left so she could look back at me (standing on the right), and I kept pushing her back to the right.

If you're trying to do a left-turn onto the middle of a busy sidewalk, I'd say tourists are not your biggest problem...
Oh come on. When the tourists are in season, that means it's OK to run them down, right? Just like deer season?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I kept pushing her back to the right.
And hundreds of people were grateful for that!
