I know a guy that knows a guy who just reached his 17th year as bike messenger in Seattle.
seventeen years is a long time.
congratulations 39
i don't get downtown much these days but when i do it's not the same city. there are 50,000 more people working in the core than there were when I quit 6.5 years ago.
17 years. YES. 50,000 more peds more SOVs more condos more street level retail with no off-street parking more entitled brogrammers more horseshit...close enough. if you're not comfortable with 50k you can say "shitload"
