Stay Warm, Be Careful Nocturne

    • Personal Journals

This crazy thing happens in NYC as night approaches – as rush hour picks up and the streets get evermore hectic than normal, delivery men on bikes start racing through the streets to get people their restaurant food while it’s still hot.  Many New Yorkers expect this service that is intrinsic to the city, yet they often view these men on bikes as a menace and a threat to public safety.   Cesar works 60 hours a week delivering food, mostly for tips.  He says they hate him until they need him.
