Kathia, who works for the city Department of Social Services and makes $46,731

Likely the typical city worker, on lunch the whole day

Kathia, who has been on unpaid medical leave from her job since the summer.

Become used to free lunch

Quote
“It’s like all of the sudden, we’re bad tenants,” said Kathia, who has been on unpaid medical leave from her job since the summer. “They were bamboozling me into an increase. They went ballistic on me because I wouldn’t give it to them.”

Gets mad when free lunch isn't offered by the landlord too.

(NY landlords can apply for non paying renters Covid assistance so interesting why this landlord didn't apply. )

At least they don't hide their purpose.

But the American Israel Public Affairs Committee (Aipac) has defended the move by saying that support for the Jewish state overrides other issues and that it is “no moment for the pro-Israel movement to become selective about its friends”.
Only on DDF does 24/6 mean 24/5/half/half

If you count all legal briefs (not just decisions), probably about 100.

ETA: Thinking about it some more, I'd probably put that number closer to 200.

Interesting because they use "stewardesses" rather than "flight attendants"?  ;)

Indeed, that was the term used back then, but I believe many DDFers might not be that familiar with it, or it might come across as odd given today's PC terms used. How old was @YitzyS in 1973?

Stewardesses - the longest word written with only the left side of the keyboard.

Probably in my 70s or 80s. Maybe a prominent lawyer or judge, who wrote thousands of legal briefs. I may even have been a judge on that very case.

It's hard to remember details from a previous gilgul.

Lawyers and judges aren't generally well-liked.

Do you recall using the term stewardess in a previous gilgul?
