what's up with manhattan?

I work in Manhattan. I am a real estate agent, as of October 18, 2005. I try to rent overpriced, underwhelming apartments all over the city to people who just have to live in Manhattan. The idea of living in Brooklyn is disgusting to them. I can't relate. I don't think you could pay me to live in the city. Well, I guess you could pay me, but you know what I mean. People make so many sacrifices so that they can live in Manhattan, like living in weird neighborhoods, like BPC or Yorkville or Clinton (which is a neighborhood I only recently learned about, only slightly different from Hell's Kitchen). Why would you cling to living in Manhattan, only to be told you can only afford it's margins? I just don't get it. But who cares? It's my job to find apartments for these people, or rather, it is my job to find people for these apartments. Sorry if this is boring right out of the gate, I am only just finding my feet here. Plus I am trying to watch tv right now. Law and Order with Richard York guest starring. I love him. I always think of him as Humbert Humbert. Quintessential creep. I'll post more on the Manhattan subject later and I promise it'll be more interesting.
