[QUOTE="Towgunner, post: 1423910, member: 12355"] There's no question cities are hotbeds of depravity. But, I think there are plenty of demons there. I used to go to New York on a regular basis. When there I had this acute sense of something ominous. Its a though evil was in the air and all around you, and in all actuality it truly is. New York is, of course, a very sexually depraved place. On top of that its home to the banking elites. I've worked on Wall Street for nearly two decades and I can tell you that all the cliches are true. At least as it pertains to the types of people that it attracts or, worse, creates. I'm simply at a loss of words describing just how awful some of these people truly are. I'm talking about the typical rank and file bond or equity salesperson...utterly contemptible and beyond redemption. Wall Street says its pure merit, but, that's not true. There's graff of all sorts, I've seen favoritism, nepotism (big time) and you're token coed who blows her way through. Most people are pretty incompetent, but, excel at inter office politics. Something that is truly not taught "in the book". Than you have, of course, the leadership. We all know this story. Banker bailouts and record bonuses and absolutely NO accountability. This is a horrible city. I will say this about the millennials, they are having a positive effect on this otherwise reprehensible industry. No, they'll never change the corruption, but, if ever and industry needs some anti-bullying or a crybaby snowflake to sue them for some obscure reason...its wall street. And they have the money. Now that Covid has revealed that you don't have to work in an office I think the cities will never recover. Sure, there will be a return of sorts as some of the workers decide to return, but, they'll be the types that prefer the office setting. Many more will opt to stay home. If, say, even 20% less commuters or people continue to work remote that's plenty to permanently change the urban experience. And good riddance to it. I welcome this development. The day I moved out of Boston was a great day. I felt the city was a prison. At 22-23 as a new college graduate, sure, no parental supervision and bars and clubs and girls etc. It felt like the city held all this mystery and promise. That lasts for only so long and than you realize there's no mystery. That a restaurant or dive bar or club is just the same exact thing with a different name. I'm convinced just living in a city is bad for your health. Everyone lives so close together it creates this smell. And there's this grime everywhere, especially in NY. Like a film or sorts that covers everything...a mixture of dead skin and other human byproducts. Not to mention actual feces and all the spores that emanate off of it. Its just foolish to live there.
