Closing Bell: Walgreens Gets the Rat Treatment on Myrtle
Last week a rat popped up on Clinton Avenue. This week it’s Myrtle. The union boys are miffed that Walgreen’s (the store’s doing the work not the developer) is using “untrained and unskilled” workers (their words, not ours) to build out their new digs on the ground-floor of the Clermont Condominium at 375 Myrtle Avenue…

Why work when you can hand out flyers?
I’ve been wanting to start a construction company called Rat Construction so I could take advantage of free advertising.
