Teleworking can save NYC money
Make telework an option for positions where teleworking works. Working from home can reduce the city budget for office space, office equipment, office supplies, insurance, utilities and many more. Teleworking should be seriously considered as a way for NYC to save money while NYC has such a large amount debt. Mass transit is terrible, it shouldnt take someone the same amount of time to get around NYC on mass transit than it takes to drive to the outskirts Pennsylvania or Connecticut.

Yes Steven, you basically highlighted all of the key reasons to support hybrid. The city of New York payroll will "never" keep up with private sector compensation or short term financial benefits, however there is an opportunity to compete with the private sector through good-great work/ life balance. For some becoming a city employee was a choice of safe retirement, purpose, greater good and intangible benefits. High financial rewards wasn't the main focus but if there is a way to greatly improve work/life balance then we should.
The best way the city leaders can accomplish this and attract more Gen x,y,z & millennium is to improve the work/life balance. Not to mention that living in the city is becoming too expensive for employees, so outer counties like Westchester, Ossining, Long island, Rockland are becoming the affordable option. Which means longer commute and less work/life balance. I don't need campaign promises anymore just results/impact...
