Latest "seen and heard on Trimet"
CLASSICS FROM THE WINTER OF 2008
It was the worst winter storm in years! There was still freedom of speech and thought at Trimet. It was the best year to be a blogger and employed by Trimet
How to drive an old bus-42,000 views
I saw Dave Stubblfield today, who filmed this now famous video of me!
Even Sound Transit has Rail/Bus inequality
Good news for New Year's Eve! Central Link light rail will run extended hours.
They never have run late bus service, only their light rail trains. They can find the labor and resources to run trains, but not buses.

UNION BULLIES
If I start getting bullied by union members again I will bail on this union.
THIS TIME FOR GOOD!
Just letting ya know!
TRIMET WHITE SHIRTS TOW THE COMPANY LINE
The station agents, road supervisors, fare inspectors and dispatchers are very loyal to Trimet. How do I know that, because I listen to dispatch almost every day.
To get promoted at Trimet you have to be a company man/woman.
I find it sorta despicable from my point of view. Working so hard to protect a government bureaucracy that has lost all ethics and is actively screwing its union employees. (yes white shirts are union members, although you can hardly see it)
Of course everybody at Trimet is scared of losing their job, and this is a country full of wage slaves who live their lives in fear.
And the more you make the more you have to lose. It's all about the money. Money has always been the tool for corruption of people.
Come up with enough money and you can buy anything, including people.
Anyway Trimet has a very loyal workforce of 'white shirts' who do everything they are told to do. I only have met two who have actively tried to get change by taking a chance, and both of them were threatened with job loss.
Such a culture of followers, sheeple.
In the end that will be the undoing of the union here, Mcfarlane knows it too.
