I applied for a Copy Editing job at B&H Photo and they want to do an in-person interview, but I'm hesitant after doing some research on the company's history of lawsuits and workplace discrimination.

I live in Washington heights/inwood and I'm tired of the limited food options in my area. I've been ordering delivery from restaurants in the morningside heights area, which is about 4.5 miles away. I want to know if it's reasonable to expect the delivery person to make that trip.

I'm from a rural state and used to working at a farmers market. I thought NYC green markets would be similar, but the prices don't make sense to me. I was expecting cheaper produce because there's no middleman. Is it just a culture difference or do farm stands have to pay a huge fee to have rights to the space? Help me understand, please...

My son is super into vinyl records and my wife and I are a little out of practice with where to go. We would always love taking a stroll through Virgin Megastore and then walk a few blocks to Colony Records. Does anyone have any good suggestions of places to go to check out some memorabilia and get a good selection of various musical media? I’m not super picky but would love to find somewhere in Manhattan vs the other boroughs if possible.

My husband and I bought a coop in Murray Hill this past January. We have never lived in NYC before, let alone have a doorman. The daytime weekday doorman retired on July 1. Since many residents were away over the summer, including us, a good by party was delayed until next week. This doorman worked for the building for about 20 years and really was a great doorman. Always smiling, always helpful. We want to give him a check as a thank you gift. What do you think an appropriate amount would be?
