“Hi I know you haven’t willingly accepted help from any of the non-profits or DHS or the Dept of Mental Health and Hygiene up until this point, how about now?”

I mean everyone on here constantly brings up the salaries of city employees/civil servants and that nearly everyone is committing “overtime fraud”. Why should non profits, who are also getting funds from the city, be able to hide their financials?

There are for sure some non-profits that do good work, but there really needs to be more oversight on how they are appropriating their funds.

Im assuming he hasn’t specified which particular ones he’s funding yet, but I mean can you blame anyone for being skeptical? ThriveNYC was a complete disaster and made nearly no noticeable different in anything that could help the mentally ill population.

Going to pad his buddies “non-profits”, with no noticeable change, mostly likely.

Yup, and guess what services are first to be cut when there’s budget cuts. It’s not the one that charges a fare.

Most people on Reddit think “abolishing the police” would realistically happen too.

“Kuyateh spent two weeks in jail before getting out on bail. He refused a plea deal and sued the city after his charges were dropped, winning a $326,000 settlement.”

Mans got a good lawyer and justice was served. Two weeks in jail for 326k and all charges dropped.

Yea I don’t think they were storing evidence against themselves there.

Addiction definitely leads to crime, and the two go hand in hand.

Literally, and the trips on his dime too. Love him or hate him, he’s very visible in the city and hardly hides in his office.

He should be going overseas and view other countries subway systems and see how clean they are, how there aren’t people acting erratically everywhere, and how it’s overall a more pleasant experience.

He went on his own dime.

The Airbnb fad is over. Hotels are back “in style”

This behavior is excused as “mental health issues” in our society now, so likely he’s still on the train/street harassing people.

We need to get people with violent history’s that are homeless off the streets. Most are deep in addiction/mental illness, and are ticking time bombs. It’s not humane or safe for anyone to live under these conditions.

I never said you can be a new grad and immediately start traveling, however you usually can after a year or so depending on the agency, which is very appealing to (relatively) new nurses

…but their rights!

A lot of the travel nurses are quite experienced so I personally wouldn’t mind, but regardless this is just the reality of nursing right now.

Correct, which leads to a constant cycle of new grad nurses replacing senior nurses. You also generally need experience to work in the ED. Why would you subject yourself to that when you can make 3X the money traveling.

Yea it’s called a standing order, that a doctor orders upon evaluation of a patient. You don’t walk into the ER and the nurses take it upon themselves to sedate you.

Probably not worth it, if you’re at a busy bar. Travel nurses are/have been making bank throughout the pandemic. From what I’ve heard that’s slowing down a bit now.

The progressive way is to let them rot in the streets and subway until they perform a violent act and are ultimately incarcerated.

Nurses sedate patients with a doctors order. They can’t take it upon themselves to sedate a patient.

Tons of senior nurses are taking remote and/or travel positions (Which pay significantly higher than staff positions). The turnover is insane in Emergency Depts and has only gotten worse since the pandemic.
