Ok, I get that you can’t exactly walk there from that hotel but that’s not the whole story. They have pretty good public transport servicing MetLife.

I’ve been to a few sold out events at MetLife and I’ve taken the train every time and every time it was the right call. The train drops you off at the stadium and it’s one transfer in Secaucus to Penn station in NYC. Additionally there are lots of buses for folks to get in and out of the stadium.

It’s a hell of a lot better than my home stadium FedEX field outside Washington, DC. You can take the train to FedEx but it’s a 20-30 minute walk to a metro, I’ve seen folks get hit walking to the station. The only real option is to drive and pay 75$, sit in traffic and be miserable the entire time. I’d love to see a train station that you could safely walk to in DC. Hopefully the RFK redevelopment will be better.

Sure you can’t walk from a hotel but it’s not like they didn’t have public transportation options for MetLife.

A lot of times it takes the form of an ESOP. IMHO, it usually founders trying to cash out from the company. There is still usually a board and CEO, however shares are owned by the employees. The ESOP companies I’ve been involved with did not sell voting shares to employees, which to me was disenfranchising. The benefit was that you had shares and stake in the company, so if the company did well, you did well, however cashing out was tightly controlled.

I suppose they could be great and hope that everyone else has better experiences but to me, I see an employee-owned company and I tend to think it’s a farce.

Believe it’s also dutched coco powder, in my experience, Hersheys is natural. I prefer dutched coco powder but it depends on your preference and the recipe you’re working with.
