Joyride at Taxpayer’s Expense?

This is how TriMet today announced (on Facebook) its latest scheme to denigrate and devalue the careers of city bus drivers.  With merely two noted exceptions anyone can qualify, they say.  In effect, you are invited to become a propaganda tool with which this public service will mitigate labor relations at the bargaining table.  This is another attempt by TriMet to persuade people that Public Transit Operators are overcompensated for the skills necessary to work a simple machine.
