Start spreading the poop: New Yorkers may get stuck with 2.4 million pounds per day of their own excrement if a national rail strike occurs.
Normally, the trains that transport human waste from New York City wind up in landfills across the South, but the tentative deal that the Biden administration brokered between the rail workers and railroad companies came asunder on Monday.
Hahahahahahaha!!! - Start spreading the poop: New Yorkers may get stuck with 2.4 million pounds per day of their own excrement if a national rail strike occurs.
New York City contracted with Dorr-Oliver many moons ago to build modern sewage treatment plants that take the waste, treat it, and dispose the harmless residue into the water, whether it is the East River or the Hudson. But the dodos didn’t feel like paying for the know-how and show-how of how to run the plants. Their attitude is why spend the money if we can do it ourselves. Well, the areas around the plants smelled like sewer gasses, and the effluent from the plant wasn’t the nearly drinkable water that it was supposed to be. And sludge had to be trucked out to landfills. The attitude here is let’s get as many illegals as we can on welfare, and screw basic infrastructure.
Couldn't happen to a more deserving bunch of asswipes....But what they'll probably do is ship that shit past the 12 mile limit and just dump it into the Atlantic.
Executive order, no strike. ( air traffic controllers ) Will the workers have the balls to strike. Will Biden have the balls, like Reagan, to fire them.
How many people do you know that can repair, maintain or operate a locomotive? How many people do you know that can run a switchyard? How many people do you know that can maintain and run the machinery to repair tracks? How many people do you know that can route train traffic efficiently? All I'm saying is that's some unique labor and I'm sure the learning curve is not only steep but also time consuming.
Are they pushing for an additional benefit, or the restoration of something they used to have that was taken away? What is the normal work week? Rail worker told me they are after "paid sick days". They get 11 paid holidays (though they might have to work "the day" because of the schedule), 5 weeks of vacation after so many years on the job. I though he said they got something like 10-14 days of personal day off. Their bitch is that they don't want to have to use personal days for sick days. I doubt they are getting a paycheck deduction for calling in sick if they have used up all of the above. There is a broad array to all the different positions. Home every night, home most nights, gone for weeks on track repair crews that cover regions of the country (competing via bid what crew gets to do a job). Jerry
I've got a couple readers that are railroad employees and have commented on recent posts about their working conditions. They're not like what your friend described. Hopefully they'll comment on this post and give you better details than I can.
I second that comment wirecutter, I have several friends that worked for the RRs, and it is hell on any kind of personal life. My best friend grew up without his dad around for many family events and he himself hardly had a life, due to the nature of most of the basically on-call schedules, very difficult to plan anything, even a golf outing little alone anything that takes travel time (fishing, beach, etc) or extended days off. The mgmt. frowns on calling out too many times and they can't miss calls.
She was re-elected in the cities not in the rural communities. NYC should be it’s own state. Separate it. Let it stew in its own swill. Pay for its own filth.

ReplyDeleteThey’ve been bringing those shit trains down to Parrish Alabama for years. And it’s decoupled in the black section of that town.
ReplyDeleteLet’em eat shit.

He can't fire them, they do not work for Fedgov, unlike the ATC people.
