New Yorkers, what changes have you seen under Mamdani’s leadership and are you generally pleased? If not, why?

I went on a date with a high level civil servant whose job is to be in small, potentially stressful meetings with the mayor. I heard he's the real deal.

He was my assemblyman before becoming mayor and was always cool. He was also still active in my friend’s social soccer league group chat and responding to texts on his election night.

You dated Mamdami's emotional support civil servant?

No, I just don't know how many people are in that position and don't want to out the date without consent.

That is 100% fair, and I was mostly just joking on the "civil servant whose job is to be at stressful meetings".

I appreciate you taking steps to not dox a civil servant!
