I have no issue paying for part of my benefits as long as I know our
collective dollars going back to TM are being spent WISELY. TriMet has a
long track record of scary (and FUEL-ish) spending. (A QUARTER MILLION
DOLLARS for a big deer art statue? Really?) Another $120k MANAGER? Has
anyone really researched the organizational chart? There must be one
manager/director/leadership position for every 5-10 non manager employee
(I don’t know the exact figure but TM is top heavy)
2) WE DIDN’T BREAK THE LAW in our negotiations. TRIMET DID. AND, we
haven’t slung anywhere near the mud TM has slung at us. Negotiating in
good faith? The TM talk internally has been butterflies and rainbows…but
that’s not the message the media and the public get.
