It's crazy that you work in the Empire State Building. Tourists would pay $50 to have your view for a day in a crowded space. You're so lucky.

[@TheLastCodebender]

yes 100%, so many people pay to get there, I feel very lucky! I will admit tho, the view from the observatory center is nicer because it's a full window wall there haha and you have a 360° view of the city too, but still, the office view is breathtaking, and you can watch it every day while working

Hey man. i should admit that the quality of this vid is awesome, i'm saying that the way you showed dat like getting back home like late hours, hitting the gym and the going to bed is actually what a lot of people should think over before dropping on this train. best of luck to you and your family.

[@americanboy1332]

Guess what that's like most of the jobs nowadays :D At my last job I was working for 17 bucks/hour so overtime was necessary to just keep going with all the bills (nothing fancy, just living costs), and after that work if I had some energy&time to go to gym that would be good already lol... at least you can get paid 5x times more for this work while having same schedule and not thinking about how to get a side job on a weekends lol
