Now It’s Hot AND Wet Down There

August 8th, 2007

Good news, freelancers! While you’re sitting around, waiting to get paid for the 400 words you wrote last fall, rejoice: People with real jobs are totally screwed today. You see, the city is advising them to stay home, which means companies like ours – where, on any given day, half the staff stays home already – are the only ones at full productivity.

A New York City transit official said Wednesday that heavy rains have caused major disruptions in the subway system and urged riders to stay home.

New York Transit official Paul Fleuranges said in an interview with NY 1 that no subway line was unaffected and said “if you can stay home, please do so.” Heavy rains overnight tapered off Wednesday morning.

Meanwhile, at a time like this, good luck reaching those city-sponsored cooling stations.
