I live in New York but I work so much I don't get to see much of it. 
Oh yeah? Many people work in the city. New York city is considered the most populated city in the U.S.
Really?  How many people are living here?
It is estimated there are almost 9 million people living there. It is a small island so New York is also consider the most densely populated city in the U.S. as well.
Anything I should do or visit when I finally get a day off in New York City?
Well the city is described as the cultural, financial and media capital of the world so there are so many things to do there. Take your pick. :)
