The Water Club
During college and for a couple years after, I worked at a Manhattan restaurant as a valet car parker. There is not a lot of valet car parking in Manhattan, but they had it at the Water Club, where we dubbed ourselves “New York’s First Valet Corps,” in no small part because there weren’t many/any other rival valet groups. This was a trend that would continue in my life later when I was in NYC’s “most powerful jug band” and “Brooklyn’s Greatest French rock band.”

I decided to speak with a Berlin union organizer and get the workers’ side of the story.
