First off he was basically in hiding for monday and the majority of tuesday as his office issued a “blanket statement” about him “being in the city”. I would think any employer would and should get pissed if an employee left a note in their office saying they were working and yet were nowhere to be found.
As for busting his ass, give me a break, perhaps if there is a photo-op to be had.
He is quick to call KDKA to come take his pic riding in a plow truck or answering a 311 phone (not that he is qualified to drive a plow truck or really serve as a 311 operator) but wants to whine when the press comes around at other times.
Also as for bics thinking he’s a douche, I completely agree. I’m not quite sure what exactly he (the mayor) has to be jealous of either.
