new york city apartment brokers

There really is nothing worse in the whole world. Each one is full of concentrated evil. Seriously.

Rating: Am I allowed to give lower than 0%?

Photo: I found that photo at this website, http://carmenrealestate.com, and I swear that is the second photo that popped up when I typed in "broker" for a google image search, and boy doesn't he fit the description?

I think we should establish the -X%.

That man looks evil.

Chrism, maybe you're right. 0% denotes worthlessness, whereas, say, -15% would indicate something that is actively harmful.

Still, it feels a little bit wrong for some reason.

Chris said...

Yeah, what I can't grasp is the possibility of -100%. What would that necessarily mean? Would that open a can of worms for the rating system? We'd then have double the possible options for a rating.

-100% is about what I would give these brokers. NO I don't want to pay you $2500 for you to do NOTHING, you no-skilled douche!

Chris said...

You pay them? I thought they would get paid by the landlord/agent.

laurie said...

Yes, well, in a town with sane citizens that would be the case.

If I'm ever a millionaire I'll live in New York.

the big secret about NY is that you don't have to use a broker. you don't! you can find an apartment on your own and never have to deal with one of these people. the entire system sets them up to be evil. run!

The entire system of New York is a setup. Zing!
