ahahahahhaa..... Waht a piece of crap city. Septa workers are the laziest most entitled people in philly. Look at them on thier picket lines. They are all fat asses! Typical Philly fashion. Go get an education you f*** Tards and stop thinking that because you can drive, you deserve to paid well for it. AHAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA !!!
YOU DRIVE A BUS YOU IDIOTS IT TAKES NO SKILL!!!!!!!!
PATHETIC LOOSERS!
$52000 a year, 4% raise? Are you serious, no one is getting 4% raises this year. Inflation didn't even happen.
Stop your bitching, take the raise of 11.5% over 5 and drive the god%^mn bus.
How many of those people are college educated?
Better yet how many college educated people would take these whining self-entitlted jerks' jobs for the same wage or less?
I bet quite a few.
with the unemploment at a all time high they should fire all that dont show up for work and hire some people that want to work. I am sure there are plenty of people that would be very thankfull to be makeing 52k a year right now. Before someone points this out I know that it is agianst the law but i think that they should take it to the courts this country is ready for some change in union laws. If this company isnt careful they will let the union put them next in line for a goverment bailout
Fire them, BREAK the union. I have no job, can't pay the mortgage and have no frickin health insurance and these lazy bastards make $52 thousand and want a raise. HOW PATHETIC can a group become? Didn't anyone tell them that there are hungry people in the United States? That there are so many unemployed people in the United States right now? Didn't someone mention to their idiotic Union President that in the court of public opinion that STRIKING right now would be the single most horrific thing to do? Obviously not but what the hell do you expect from the city of Brotherly Love!
right as the Phillies are fighting for the world series. Great move, shut down every transit system. This is why folks HATE THE UNIONS.
fire them all, no one is getting 4% raises out there, everyone else is getting laid off or had to take a cut in pay just to keep their jobs, I had to take a 10% cut this year, just to keep my job, when things get better, and i hope soon, although i doubt it will happen under all these current administrations. I'll get my regular pay again, but until then, bite the bullet like the rest of us and be happy you have a job. I've had to deal with septa drivers, and the majority of them, have major attitudes.
Today in the worst times of our country’s history and of distress,
people are simply not happy just to have a job!
Typical union ignorance. Don't these union pukes know our country is in a recession? If they go on strike, all of them should be fired and replaced by people who would appreciate a job. If these GED graduates want more pay, find a better job, if they can.
The acme of foolishness. These union workers that are striking, I would assume will be out of work soon. I didn't know there were any jobs left in America with pension; and now by striking they are going to risk losing one of the last remaining jobs in the USA with a pension?! Not too smart. And 11.5% increase guaranteed over the next 5 years. I took a 50% paycut this year; because I was displaced from the automotive industry. Once again, not too smart. And 1% contribution to healthcare insurance is virtually unheard of too. There are just so many unemployed workers out of work in this country, it will be so very easy to replace all these workers. Surely these union workers should realize this, but apparently not. I'm glad they are prepared to be on strike for the long haul; because I would suspect this would be a permanent layoff.
Union is as Union does, idiots. They should all lose their jobs, and get no assistance of any kind. There are plenty of people who would be willing to work for 52K a year. And people wonder why our country is so screwed up. Unions served a purpose when people were dieing in coal mines and sweat shops. Now, it's just a way for lazy uneducated scr@ps to get a job. Wish I could be that "Proud".
Break the Unions!!!
Fire them...anyone can drive a bus and I am sure the positions will get filled quickly today!
Phuck the unions!
Yes, watch the socialists try to destroy what is left of America's economy.... They don't care if they hurt their neighbors...they only care about themselves and their "bosses"....
Screw them, bring in illegals and let them have the jobs. WE could save a fortune, expecially if we cut out all the unemployment handouts for all union workers. Let the unions take care of their own!
And why does the Health care bill have 10 billion in subsidies to help pay for union worker's cadillac health care policies??? WHY???
Strike, strike, strike and keep on striking. They will just ship in more Jamacians to take your place. Hey mon wer you wan to go???
Hell, I'll take that job! And forget the raise, I'll even give back 10% in consessions and still consider myself lucky to have it!
These people are complete idiots. ARE YOU KIDDING ME!?!?!?!?!?
Fire them all, put an add on the radio, just one, and you will have a line down the street, clear across town, of people who will appreciate a paycheck each week.
Bunch of FAT, over paid bitches!!!
Get rid of the unions!!!!
obama is a big union supporter. I am sure he will step in and make sure the unions get all the money they want. This is what you got when voting for obama, a con artist that doesn't even try and hide the con. Maybe obama will send in Andy Stern to help out assuming he can get him out of the white house (26 visits in 6 months).....does anything sound fishy there?????
It amazes me how unions can go on strike and demand raises in this economy. Give me a break. They should be thankful they have a job, and already making $52K nice income as well. Wish I made that much.
Selfish union a**holes. I wonder how many working poor people will loose their jobs because they can't get to work. If these low lives don't want to work then replace them with people who will, people need to get to work and for the sake of the environment we need public transporatation. It isn't like their are any lack of people out their looking for jobs.
The opportunity is now to break the backs of all unions. Unemployment is at such a high level now that the sympathy toward union employees by the rest of America is not there. I need a job as many do. The unemployed should form the Unemployed American Union. Each time any other union decides to go on strike the UAU shows up and offers a dealbreaker to the employer.
This is a smack in the face to every American, employed or not, and something needs to be done about it! To have the audacity to go on strike after millions have lost their jobs should warrant a felony arrest to all individuals involved. This is were Obama and the Govt. needs to step in, get rid of that union, fire the employees who went on strike, and bring in people who are willing to work! At $52K to drive a bus no one should complain.
Shut them down fill in the tunnels....osama obama Husein would approve of that. Anything to ruin this country...
IMPEACH !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Reagan fired the air traffic controllers. Do you suppose Obama will step in and right this wrong? Striking in this economy has to be the dumbest thing I have ever heard. And to do it the way they did with no notice so as to inconvenience as many people as possible????
I ouwld love to see them all begging for their jobs back after they are filled with unemployed people who want to work. That's just a dream, though.
