TTC workers fight back

by Susan on February 10, 2010

Frustrated with their passengers, management, and the media, a group of Toronto Transit Commission (ON) employees launched a Facebook group to defend themselves. The members-only group,  Toronto Transit Operators against public harassment, was developed in reponse to what the Toronto Sun calls “a deluge of pictures  and videos…showing some TTC workers napping, taking breaks and reading the newspaper comics on the job.” Link to full story in Toronto Sun.

I have seen first hand TTC workers slacking off on the job for many years. When I was a security guard as far back as the late 80`s I witnessed workers sleeping, smoking and even stopping their buses for 45 minute to 1 hour coffee breaks. This has been going on for years. The only reason we all notice it now is because of portable cam`s. I also know that unions will protect their own no matter what. So keep taking those pics and videos because those workers will never ever be fired. The most they will get is suspensions for up to 2 weeks max.
