De Blasio logged a 7-hour work month at City Hall

Mayor Bill de Blasio spent a mere seven hours -- less than one full
workday -- at City Hall during the month he launched his bid for the
White House, records reviewed by The Post show.
Hizzoner showed up at his office on just six occasions in May, taking
part in two meetings, four events and five phone calls, one of which was
his weekly appearance on WNYC radio, according to entries on his
official calendar.
The 11 appointments amounted to a meager one-fifth of the 50 meetings,
calls and other events at City Hall on de Blasio's calendar for May
2019. He had a total 152 city events scheduled for the month.
One former aide said de Blasio's virtual disappearance from the Big
Apple's official seat of power sent a troubling message.
"If he's trying to show New Yorkers that he's over doing the job, he's
doing a good job of it," the ex-aide said.
Another former de Blasio insider called the mayor's job performance
"real bad."
"At this point, you've got to wonder how much of his heart is really in
it," the source added.
De Blasio and first lady Chirlane McCray kicked off his presidential
campaign with a May 16 appearance on ABC's "Good Morning America" that
drew raucous protests from groups as diverse as the Police Benevolent Association and Black Lives Matter.
This years schedule shows 66 calls or meetings while de Blasio was en
route -- meaning that he was being driven around New York City or on the campaign trail.
De Blasio spokeswoman Freddi Goldstein downplayed the importance of his whereabouts, saying, "Whether at City Hall, Gracie Mansion or on the
road, the mayor consistently delivers for 8.6 million New Yorkers."
A city resident apparently disagreed: A "wanted" poster appeared in
Midtown last month.
