If your kids can go back to school, you can go back to work.

It’s my tax dollars at work. Or not at work. That’s the problem.

But it’s cool. It’ll all be over soon enough.

Keep wishing super duper hard. Your jealousy is immature and ugly.

Oh, and we’re permanent remote and the company gave up our lease, so don’t bother with the predictable failed clapback.

Same. Gave up the lease and begged employees to come take some of the furniture. Ha ha ha

I’ve lived in DC on and off since the late 80s. It has nothing to do with on-site feds (there was no remote work in the 90s and DC was a dump).

Gentrification led to over expanding. My neighborhood alone went from lovely row homes to over priced condos, no play space for families and NINE coffee shops in three blocks. Eventually those young people get married and have kids. They want playgrounds. They want good schools and they want more than just latte and gelato.

I’m talking about downtown. Y’all need to get back here. Stop being selfish hermits in the exurbs and get back into the city in offices where you belong. That’s what you signed up for when you took your job. Stop fleecing the taxpayers.

The mission of the federal government isn't to subsidize DC businesses

Agree. The mayor can spin it as federal government but it’s the rise in crime in DC and the lack of DC government using modern day enforcement and prevention.

1. Arlington refusing to widen 66 inside the beltway.
2. Weird Metro issues that leave me stranded and turn a 50 minute train ride into a three hour nightmare.
3. Driving and paying upward of 30 bucks in tolls to still sit in traffic.
4. Another 25 bucks to park when I arrive.
5. If I don't pay tolls, hours in traffic.
6. Grand campaigns to tout more service, only to shut the whole silver/orange line down with little no information.

I want to do my part for small biz in the city, but powers that be seem to keep making that harder, not easier.

Your taxes pay for private businesses? That’s what the article you linked is about.

Yea you’re a logical thinker. Not.

Ooh, ad hominem! Always the sign of someone with a good point! At least I know the difference between “yeah” and “yea.”

Well, now you’re resorting to correcting my English, rather than addressing the ridiculousness of your argument. The true sign of defeat.

Whatever you say, sweetie

Oh dear. You failed again. How embarrassing for you.
