Renaming Brooklyn!?!

WAIT/BAR STAFF (SOUTH BROOKLYN)

As I'm looking for a part-time gig as a waiter I bump into one the newest phenomenons sweeping our borough; Borough Re-naming. When did our Coney Island turn into South Brooklyn?. Ever since those new looking people started showing up in your neighborhood, thats when. As the cost of rent rises and the profit of those causing rent to rise; we have those ambitious "go-getters" renaming the shitholes that we call neighborhoods. Sunset Park is now the South Slope, Coney Island is now South Brooklyn, Dumbo was just once some dude saying it was the area "down under the Manhattan Bridge " but for marketing purposes we refer to it as DUMBO (True Story) and the best yet, Harlem is no longer Harlem but is being refered to only as Upper Manhattan. I don't think C'amron or P Diddy are going to be to happy with that one.....
