They must have a good union ha ha .

Electric vehicles won’t do much good when there is no electricity in storms and evacuations have to be done.

I don't believe station agents should be in the station roaming. people are bats** crazy. its putting the agents lives at risk. they are unarmed. let the transit cops, and area pd do all that

Part of a new deal involving the MTA and Transport Workers Union Local 100, station agents systemwide must now spend part of their shift outside the booth to offer customer service face to face.

Oh, joy.

Dissolving and merging of Titles. Old as the hills.
I'm sure the next phase of deployment will be security and train conductor rolled into one. Ding Dongs!
