AMZA: Ask Me & Zeke Anything - May 2022
Robert Cox opens the floor to Paid Subscribers — ask away.
"AMA" is an acronym that stands for "ask me anything”, a type of informal interview in which I open the floor to allow paid subscribers to ask me whatever they want to know.
On Words in Edgewise, the plan is to use the AMA format a bit differently — AMZA is a monthly post where paid subscribers can post comments with questions but where Zeke and I will not only answer those questions but copy/paste comments I receive elsewhere (texts, emails, social media) then answer those questions here.
This is the sort of special content we mentioned here: Paid Subscriptions for Words in Edgewise Now Available - $7 bucks!
SHEILA GRAY ASKS: I am a Parent of a New Rochelle City School District Employee and I'm
outraged with the neglect of the Employers. My daughter and grandson caught COVID the lack of transportation these children have to go through to get a education is ridiculous. Why should a child have to stand on over crowded buses and children not wearing mask. Why should your employee have to stay at work when their child is sick with COVID and then they get it and you want to rush them back to work when they still have symptoms. The City School District needs to do better if it was one of them or their child I'm sure it would be different circumstances. Let's figure out
better procedures. I feel like they don't care go ahead let someone's child get hurt riding over crowded buses and let employees come back to work and infect Coworkers and Students. Damn shame.

HENRY BARTEE ASKS: I live in the " craft building " in new Rochelle at 164 union ave, and as of June 1st .... They are raising our rent, I have reached out to several who hold office and all they say is they can't help !
This building was put up by Michael's management in fishkill ny. This building is poorly run, one of the elevators was down for a month, the floors and hallways are dirty. The super of the building doesn't know what he's doing and he's always on "YouTube” to fix something ! The stairways are horrendous they leave tracks on the floor and into your apartment. We had 4 managers within a year... and the last manager walked out .. So now the building doesn't have a manager. And the entrance door lock is broken and now the buildings not even secure. On windy days you can hear noise's from the roof as if something is banging up there and the upper parking garage leaks down to the lower garage whenever
it rains and debris fall from the ceiling on to cars below too much stuff going on to raise the rent. We need help here lease. My name is henry Bartee please call me anytime
