TTC ya later!

Toronto

What fucking knobs. What is this…? 1970s Poland?

Dear TTC Union managers: Fuck you in the prostrate hole with the car you drove to work today. Sorry Mr Busdriver, but you work for a bunch of thugs that seem to think they can take the city hostage.

Whew! I feel better now. Off to tune up my bike. Eat me, TCC.

Update: I can hear the familiar rumble of a streetcar at the stop just outside my window. Unincredible. What is interesting is the people yelling at the driver from the curb, from their cars, as the streetcars go by. It seems that the union got our attention, but like a bad puppy, shitting on our nice rug wasn’t the way to do it.

    Having a good friend who works as a driver for the TTC and hearing a few horror stories of near assault, I am not surprised that this is a factor for today’s walk out. But there are other avenues to resolving this issue.

    The other complaintants in this carnival of retards are the maintenance workers, disgruntal with having to work later shifts or night shifts. Or some such twadle.

    God forbid this city should become truly 24 hours.

    Again, avenues of resolution were not followed and they thought taking the city down was a good idea.

    I’ve been informed that my inability to ride, walk or drive to work from Cabbagetown to Lawrence and Yonge, has cost me a days pay or a vacation day. My choice. Good thing I didnt buy a pass this month or I’d be at the head office asking for 24 hours worth of refund!

    “The rest of the world has smart cards, completely automated subway entrances, stamp your machine-purchased ticket on the platform honour systems and we have a bunch of overpaid workers sitting in collection booths and cushy chairs watching us drop tickets and coins into little glass boxes. Ridiculous waste of my tax money. And these guys have the nerve to walk off like that.”
