We admit it: we definitely take our subway station managers for granted. Every day we use and abuse those stations, complaining about delays, safety, rats, temperature, and cleanliness. But despite how disgusting New Yorkers can be, some little-known heroes are doing their darndest to keep those platforms and benches immaculate, to the point that one can literally eat off of them.
So we should all take this opportunity to give thanks to those humble station managers—after all, they are the only thing standing in the way of an underground monkey insurrection. To that end, we raise our glass and toast to you, Jerry Groschke, and your amazing moustache. Without your efforts, our rides would certainly be half as fun.
