Marisa always liked take your daughter to work day.  She enjoyed coming to work with dad and participating in the activities there. Fast forward to the present and it almost feels like we reversed roles. I shared with Marisa the early invite I received to the attend the 2022 State of the Borough Address by the Queens Borough President Donovan Richards, and she promptly registered to attend; it made sense in her role as Assistant Director at AJC (American Jewish Committee) New York.  I already RSVP’d and signed up my labor clients, the presidents/business agents of Amalgamated Transit Union Locals 1056 and 1179.  Marisa and I traveled together Friday morning to reach LaGuardia Community College where the Address took place.  My daughter exchanged business cards before and after the program. We took a picture (see at left) with the borough president after the speech which she dutifully tweeted and tagged her dad; after that Marisa caught up with the Deputy Borough President Ebony Young whom she met the previous month at a borough hall rally and followed up with a meeting.  I retweeted it with a quote about being the “3rd wheel” recalling the past when she’d join me at a different borough president’s office for take your daughter to work week.
