November 2016 road supervisor Jay Frye was informed that he was BEING TERMINATED from the Trimet Transportation District.
In December he was informed that he was NOT BEING TERMINATED but rather being "demoted" back to the lowly bus driver position.
Now its March 2018 and Mr Frye is now being reinstated to his position of road supervisor with full back pay by order of the arbitrator.
Yet another example of the brutality of the Trimet executive management and their complete and total lack of any sort of ethical compass.
Worst of it is the executive management responsible for this reprehensible action gets no sanction, they only get more raises, if they are even working there anymore.
No matter how badly Trimet executive management performs they are safe in their cushy executive positions.
The public transportation industrial complex is brutal.
It treats human beings as disposable commodities, both people operating the system and the public using it.
Its Government, and government is run by the worst of us.
Good for Jay!
ReplyDeleteSo glad to read this. I had nothing but good interactions with Jay when I was driving, back nine years ago.
