This mayor is a joke. Are you kidding me? Why would i want to wear a mask and work in an office when i can sit at home and do the same work? 🙄🙄🙄

[hansonel]

Back into the offices? A lot of office workers are working remotely now... remote work is here to stay for many.

How about paid maternity/ parental leave? More affordable healthcare? Cost of living increase? Fixing/ updating 100 year old infastructure? Making NYC streets and subways safer...?

What’s better than a 3 day work week?

WORKING REMOTE 100%

“All I wanna say is that they don’t really care about us”

Is this guy on coke? Why the F would I go back to the office? I wouldn't go back even if it was one day per week. I've been working from since March 2020 and I'm never going back. I work in tech, there's 0 reason for me be in a disgusting office. All I need is a WiFi and a laptop.

"People are vaccinated and empowered". LOL. That made my night. The media literally talks to use like we're 10 year old kids.

I can understand why Adams wants people to return, but is it really necessary as many people work from home and don’t have to waste time commuting and blocking traffic

Let’s clean up the homeless crazy people in the subway!

I love working from home. Best way to work imo

[bigsur]

He’s looking at restaurants, trains, tolls and shopping revenue down big time, sucks to be him because half the people are working permanently from home.

[Adrianlover]

Why go to work. Offices save money and still get the work done remotely. And employees saves money on transportation.

This is not work mayor.

“To show them our city is safe” HIGHEST CORONA VIRUS CASES Breaks record … I don’t get it anymore 🤣🤣🤣

[missypresley]

If businesses are doing well having their employees work from home, why is he getting involved?

[s.r]

Adams stop forcing employees to go back into offices. Let them work from home. It's not going to affect the food service industry. 😒

[themechanic]

😂 people saving a lot of money sir but staying home, babysitter, transportation, traffic free, and you want them to come back, you must be nuts. If u can work from home there’s no need to come back .

[bronxtours]

There’s still a pandemic and this mayor wants to open back 3 days a week lmao

[toma]

Please take care the COV19 situation first. Given the SO HIGH number of new cases in NYC, talking about working 3 days in the city is MENINGLESS.

[oliviagoldin]

Maybe people relocated working remotely and support another ecosystem? Living a quiet meaningful life

[rohitjethani]

He is speaking rich investor language because thousands of office an residential building s are vacant so he should say come back to NYC an he will make sure there is no looting shooting slashing an pushing

[michelejohnson]

Everything in politics is about numbers, not this time when lives are involved

[ginalewis]

He doesn't care about the people he only cares about the economy ...
