When our "Bored" of Directors (a nickname I chose after being to a few of their meetings, in which they appear as wax statues with recording boxes in their collective larynx emanating predictable corporate soundbites that echo "Yeah, whatever he says") steamrolled the hiring of a new GM. 

Kelsey is just another union busting overpaid hack

Trimet is the most anti union government employer in the state of Oregon

Hundreds of 6 figure bureaucrats and billions In capital probably corporate welfare yet they whine about paying drivers liveable wages

Goddamn disgrace https://t.co/6lTqkfvdru

TriMet’s latest union busting maneuvers

ATU757 has posted on their website this post http://www.atu757.org/check-your-check-its-pay-raise-season-at-trimet/ and they are patting themselves on the back for all the hard work they have been doing and attempting to convince the members that they are doing a good job for them. There are many things I would like to point out in what they are telling members and I hope members take a good look at the information.

Trimet is the leader in technology my ass

Only been using those 40 years

“Trimet is the leader in technology”

Lie after lie after lie

They still use those cause they know lots of drivers won’t fill them out

Just another scam on you guys

There’s a new class action against those neoliberal monsters coming soon

Light rail fail!

These photos and following message sent to me.

There is a break in the rail at the frog for the 15A switch. It's a complete break, all the way through the base, on the rail going to the turnout side. pic.twitter.com/5zbuiNk6XK

4. As for the depression issue there really isn’t anything you can do as a transportation agency. They run this place like it’s the military with no regard for their employees as human beings and other agencies will have to be involved to change this

Remember when?
