So many people I know lost their jobs...including me so do I feel bad for the MTA...Nope! They been wasting and over spending money for years on end that they now need to fire people. Blame yourself MTA and also blame the politicians for closing everything so people don't need to go anywhere anymore.
I'm almost glad covid hit when it did. I was offered a safety position in the MTA and everything was put on hold halfway through the process in the hiring freeze. I'm sure my butt would be out the door in a few weeks instead of sticking around my old job.
Damn, 9300 laid off. How the hell will they change any lightbulbs now that there are only 4 people supervising the guy doing the work instead of 5 people

18 months ago I turned down the Track worker's job. I was conflicted about it but couldn't justify the pay cut, even while weighing the benefits package and the pension. If I was in my late 20's early 30's I probably would have taken it, and I would probably be out the door now.

Yep Not worth it past age 30.
