I've lived in both cities. Really depends what you want. New York is a city that you immediately fall for. London is an affection that grows steadily on you over time.New York is more fast-paced and far more dense. It's more obvious exactly what is open late until 4 a.m. and what isn't. The city has an energy that stretches the limits of how long you think it is possible for a human being to be awake.  Public transportation is very, very cheap and it's fast to get from one side of the city to the other. On average, if you were to pick a random restaurant, I think the food is better. London is more like a collection of villages that have grown into each other over 1,000 years. It's lower density and I believe it takes longer to get from one side of the city to another. The Tube only runs until 12:30 or 1 a.m. (But the really edgy part of London -- Hackney & Dalston -- is only a short bus ride or maybe even walking distance from the financial center if you're liberal about what you consider its boundaries. Lower Manhattan, while extraordinarily fun to live in, is over-commercialized. The unique little shops and curiosities that made it an unusual place to live increasingly feel more like a vestige of the past to me there. Chains are kinda taking over.)  I personally think the artistic culture is far less commercial and much more innovative in London than New York. The Arts Council supports all kinds of local, eccentric and home-grown projects. Fashion is quirkier and more original. Alexander McQueen, I think, could have really only come from the U.K. and Central St. Martins. New York's designers and artists think about what will sell. London's artists think about what is conceptually new, even if it is difficult and considered unattractive now.London is also a more international city than New York. (I say this somewhat controversially). While about one-third of Londoners and New Yorkers are foreign born, America encourages more of a hyphenated sense of identity. People are Mexican-American, or Ethopian-American, or Chinese-American. In that sense, while New York may be international, the U.S.'s comparatively prohibitive immigration policies mean people try to stay in the country for a longer period of time and become more assimilated than they do in London, where dozens of other countries are literally an hour's flight away.  Travel, of course, is a major plus in London. You can you get away for ~$100 to Andalusia, Morocco, Turkey, Berlin, Milan, Rome, etc. Travel is deeply ingrained into the culture and Londoners now legally have five weeks of holiday a year.London's food culture is improving, but you really have to know where to go and when. Over the past several years, Brits have come to embrace and elevate their own cuisine and local produce. I love the different mix of international cuisines there too. Growing up in California meant I considered Italian, Mexican and Chinese to be the great trinity of foreign cuisine. In Britain, chicken tikka masala and the Turkish kebab rule. Sunday roasts also seem to be the functional equivalent of the Manhattan brunch. One of my favorite things to do in London was get lost in the Sunday markets -- Broadway Market, Upmarket, Borough Market, Brixton -- really, any of them. There are hundreds of stands where you can find the best hog roast, cheese brought in overnight from France, nduja from Calabria, octopus balls, banh mi, spanakopita, curry, Ghanaian stew, bizarre T-shirts or whatever. If you want to stay out very, very late, you also have to know where to go. Most places close down around 1 or so. The drinking culture is also far more onerous on your liver. A week of Manhattan drinking is more distributed. It might involve cocktails and wine on several nights, with some extra drinking on weekends. A week of London drinking and the culture of buying rounds -- where everyone is expected to buy a round of drinks for everyone else -- means you end up drinking WAY more than you should. If I went out drinking with a group of eight people, all eight people would end up buying drinks for everyone else. And then I would buy eight drinks for everyone (which is way more than I would ever pay for in the U.S. being a small-ish woman).If you're American, it's much easier to find a social circle in New York. Americans are just much more open to loose and sudden friendships. With Brits, you have to know them for at least a couple months until they feel really comfortable with you. You can apply this same line of thinking to dating -- except when Londoners go on the lash, which is probably the only time some Brits feel truly comfortable with themselves. (Just teasing!) In New York, the upside and the downside of dating is the paradox of choice. Enough said there. There are entire TV shows, movies and books devoted to this problem. Almost every New Yorker will tell you that they love the city and would have a hard time living anywhere else in the world. Virtually no Londoner will tell you the same thing about London. They will moan about the weather and reminisce about their holiday in Phuket, Ibiza, etc. Don't mistake this for misery (most of the time). Brits and Americans just have different ways of expressing themselves. Londoners find our flagrant use of "Amazing!" "Awesome!" and "Love!" as tiring and insincere as we find their lack of eye contact and smiling (amongst strangers) cold and dispassionate. Also, talking about what your job is or asking the requisite "What do you do in the city?" question immediately is a faux pas in London.  The vulgarity of that question also probably has a little to do with how Britain is a class-based society where a person's stature in life should be readily apparent through their accent, demeanor and dress to other Brits. This isn't the case in the U.S. so Americans tend to probe more, especially in New York, where a person's career is a major -- if not the most important -- part of their identity. Then of course, there's the cliche that Americans live to work, while continental Europeans work to live. The British tend to be somewhere in between those extremes. In Britain, frivolous banter is a high art. Talking about nothing can be a way to probe a person's intelligence, wit and creativity.I can't really compare costs at this point since the pound is so weak. When I lived in London, GBP-USD ranged from ~$1.40 to $2.10. When the pound was hovering near its peak, the daily costs of living were extraordinarily high, but rent took up a comparatively smaller share of my monthly income than it did in New York. Health care is also free (er, nationalized) in the U.K. I can't speak for older people who are likely to have more serious health problems, but for a younger person in good health, this was awesome. No having to stress about what's covered and what's not, figure out who is a provider and who is not, be shocked by unanticipated co-pays that were not listed in the original health plan marketing material, be sent random $200 or 300 bills for a routine annual when your doctor for whatever reason can't bill your health insurance provider, have expensive, unnecessary tests or consultations pushed upon you, worry when you're in between jobs, or re-figure everything out again when you change jobs or your company gets acquired. Also, the very best essay I have ever read about the experience of a young person in New York was written by Joan Didion: http://www.mtholyoke.edu/~zkurmu...

Walking in might work, but you also run the risk of inconveniencing someone while their working. However, let's say you go for it, have you thought about what questions will I be asked at an interview for a restaurant job? Visit this link to get yourself prepared for what is surely to come your way whether at your impromptu or official interview. Having some prepared answers can make the process run more smoothly which will give you confidence and probably result in a job.

As Sarah said, leave it blank or, if it's a free-form text field, put in "Freelancer".If you put in $50k and they were thinking of paying $75k, you just lost $25k/year.  If you put in $75k, but their budget only allows $50k, you may have lost the job on that alone.If you don't put in anything, leave it to the interview, and tell thm that you're a freelancer and adjust your fee according to the difficulty of the job, so there's no set income.  If they ask for how much you made last year, explain that that would include periods between jobs, where you made zero, so it's not a fair number.In any financial negotiation, an old saying will always hold true - he who comes up with a number first, loses.  Jobs, buying houses - they're both the same.  Asking "How much?" is the better side to be on.  then if they say they were thinking of $50k-$75k, you can tell them that it's just a little less than you were charging, but the job looks to be VERY interesting, the company seems to be a good one to work for and you're sure that when they see what you're capable of, they'll adjust your increases.  (IOW, "I'll take the $75k, but I expect to be making about $90k in a year.")They know how to play the game - show them that you do too.

Interesting question. I tend to think the answer is "almost never." Though it has happened, the frequency is statistically insignNow in a city of 8 million people.In 2001 I was managing an 11-story office building in Midtown. The building was formerly residential and had been converted to offices, and each office had a window air conditioner at every window. During a routine facade inspection by NYC, the inspector notices one A/C unit that appeared to be loose from the window frame. We promptly received a violation that required me to hire a contractor to secure every single window A/C unit to a special bracket made for that purpose. There were literally hundreds of these units in every single window and it cost the building owner tens of thousands of dollars to cure that violation. So there is at least one building in NYC that I can personally attest is safe from falling window A/C units.  The interesting part of the question is whether NYC zoning law would be responsible for these kinds of injuries. In a "zero lot line" building there is no "setback area" from the front property line, usually along the sidewalk. Most cities would have a setback requirement such that the facade of the building is set back several feet from the sidewalk. But in NYC most facades are not set back from the sidewalk, so an A/C unit extending outwards is actually using public airspace and thus could be considered over public property. This presents an interesting question of legal liability.

A more efficient Department of Buildings might be a great public benefit, but voters are more concerned about schools and the police. The mandates of the DOB may expand at a faster rate than its budget. The political consequences of an inefficient Department of Buildings are  more developers throwing more money to political campaigns. The 2015 NYC DOB budget is $107.29 million (Page on nyc.gov), the mayor included in the proposed 2016 budget "an additional $4.6 million to  hire city inspectors and speed up the permitting process for small  businesses" (Page on crainsnewyork.com). Meanwhile, there is a $77 million deficit and $18 billion in deferred maintenance for public housing (NYCHA Is In Really Bad Shape & Needs $18 Billion for Repairs).

Somewhere on that form should be a blank for routing number and account number. Those are available from your check and/or your bank statements. If you can't find them, call the bank and ask or go by their office for help with the form.  As long as those numbers are entered correctly, any error you make in spelling, location or naming should not influence the eventual deposit into your proper account.

Some people want to stay homeless. Give it any reason you like, they have no desire to be housed. I can't speak from the perspective of a person who lives in the park and panhandles to have income in this city (btw I'm in a neighborhood in SF). For them it provides them a lifestyle they are comfortable and I don't think that taking that away from them always facilitates their best interest or the community at large.They could figure out what they would rather do, but you'd have to ask them.Medical problems of all kinds lead to homelessness. So does insurmountable debt especially when it's the IRS' unavoidable payment of debt. I met a few in the homeless shelters that came from real middle class incomes and simply couldn't get out of the hole without a large income. Try earning $3K a month and having an IRS levy taking $2700 a month from you. You can't make a car payment, you lose your car, you can't get to work you lose your job. You sell every thing you own until you can't pay your rent, you're in a homeless shelter. There isn't a lot you can do on $300 a month. All of the sudden - You're receiving General Assistance and Food Stamps and if you find a new job you're going to have a window of about 2 months before the IRS finds your income and levy's it. Your boss isn't going to like you very much because he/she now has to do extra accounting and is basically getting punished for hiring you because you're a scab if he can fire you, he will. Never mind that it's nearly impossible to get that job when you're living out of a draw in your 90 day bed. So if you find a job it's going to be minimum wage and your debt is enormous. Maybe you were low income and you had no healthcare because you didn't know they even had Healthy San Francisco until after you were in so much pain that you couldn't work anymore. Now you have permanent nerve damage, you're in a wheel chair, you've become mentally ill because enough stress can make anyone crazy. You're panicked and you can't get a job because you're so desperate you freak out anyone who does respond to your mentally charged cover letter and resume in the interviews. You can't do a lot of basic jobs because you're handicapped and the processes involved in being trained for a new career are so bureaucratic it's crazier than you are. Quite a few of these people do drugs and have a tendency to abuse alcohol from the top to the bottom. I'd guesstimate that the number of people in the shelter system (the bottom two groups and the mentally challenged that live in shelters) who are redeemable is around 30%. Most would smoke mild enough drugs and drink within the limits of a normal person if they had peace of mind. All they need is a runway. A job isn't necessarily the end all fix it all solution for everyone. I want a "crate of discovery" of what is possible for homeless and unemployed people in San FranciscoWhen you want to know what inspires children, you put them in a room full of what is possible and you sit back and wait to see what they want to take out of the room and keep. We are all children, some of us just have older faces. When you want to find out what will grow in dead soil you throw in every kind of seed and see what grows.Like any initiative start with what can be accomplished and pare the problem down until it's more deeply understood. http://cozylap.wordpress.com for more about my domain expertise.

The primary function of a daycare center is to provide a safe and secure environment with quality caregivers, so that parents have the peace of mind of knowing their children are safe while they work.
