Casual

Whether you’re new to the city or a veteran, you will get to experience all of these gems while living in the urban jungle:

1. Showering in the morning only to have the hot, dirty subway air cancel it out

Petition to have showers in the office bathrooms.

2. Navigating between the sweltering heat of the streets and a basically freezing office

And then the HVAC breaks at work

3. Subway delays because the city grid can’t handle the amount of electricity and now you’re late–wonderful

Public transportation is just SO reliable

4. “Let’s have lunch outside” turns into “Pass the aloe lotion, please”

There may or may not be a small collection of aloe lotion, cooling gels, and everything in between on your desk

5. Momentary blindness becomes an almost daily occurrence when you step outside
