In New York You Pay Yourself To Shovel

NYC Blizzard 2026: Mayor Mamdani's Epic Snow Shovel Fail

New York just got buried under its 9th biggest snowstorm in recorded history—Central Park clocked 19.7 inches, with some spots hitting 2+ feet.

Enter Mayor Zohran Mamdani (sorry, "Zorhan Mondame"), the all-American hero who "thought fast" after the city dropped the ball on prep.

His brilliant plan? Recruit everyday New Yorkers to become human plows for $19–$30/hour. Just show up with a shovel... and a pile of paperwork.

Yes, the mayor himself posed for pics with a tiny short shovel—the kind you'd grab if you lived in the desert and had never seen real snow. Classic.

To qualify (minimum 18 years old, able to do heavy labor, eligible to work in the US):

  • Two small photos (1.5 square inches each)
  • Original + copy of two forms of ID
  • Social Security card

That's seven documents minimum just to shovel snow and get paid. Teens? Out of luck—the one gig they could smash, gone.

Meanwhile, no such docs needed to vote in NYC. Priorities, right? You pay taxes so someone else can have the job of snow plowing... but now you pay someone else to do the work you could do—if you survive the bureaucracy.

And the "hardworking snowplowers" in action?

Scoop... dump it right back in the street. Job security! Pile it up for donuts. Guy's having the time of his life after a long night—probably drank a lot, now it's fun time. At this rate, he's re-covering New York in snow. Atta boy, do another donut!

Peak New York chaos: shoveling snow more regulated than democracy, and the helpers are basically making it worse for laughs.

Stay warm out there, folks. ❄️😂
