Brian Lairn on WNYC, and for our last few minutes today, we're going to return to the big

local news of the week, Mayor Adams' indictment.

But from a very particular point of view, we want to give first priority on the phones

to anybody who is currently a city worker. Any city workers listening right now? After all, you're on the

front lines of this chaos. It's your job that's affected by the actions of the mayor, as well as the city as a whole, of course.

But if you are, I'm sorry, if you're not an employee of New York City, hold your calls for a minute.

Let's see if we get city workers calling in.

I realize most city workers are at work, so not necessarily listening to the show, but there

are some jobs where you can listen

and work at the same time, and we know some people do, or maybe you're off today or homesick

or whatever. So if you are a city worker, 212-433 W-NYC, 212-433-9692, Call and tell us how you and your colleagues are reacting to the news of Mayor Eric Adams' indictment.

retire, retire, resign while fighting these charges. He's innocent until proven guilty. He has the right

to fight the charges, declare his innocence in court, as I think he's doing right about now in

lower Manhattan. But the question around whether

he should resign really centers on can he still run the city while he's fighting the charges.

And that's what we're trying to get at with you. City workers, if you're out there,

212-433 WNY there, 212-433, WNYC, 212, 433-9692. From your desk or your sanitation

truck, or your classroom, or your construction site, or wherever you are as a city worker, can your agency

do its job as well as or not as well as or I guess some people maybe would even say better

than, though I doubt it, before Mayor Adams was indicted. 212-433 WNYC,
