    I dunno, maybe those people do deserve a higher pay, i dunno or maybe they are being greedy

    we just had a strike for schools over here, like thousands of schools had to be closed cause a teachers union went on strike over pay

    i thought to have a strike legally, u have to organise and give in advance the date the strike is to happen.

    That happened in Montreal in 2005 and last year also. In 2005, it was for a week or 2, but I was okay, cuz I lived at like 30mins walk from my uni. And they would open the metro and bus for the rush hour period (like morning from 7 to 9 and evening from 4 to 6). Remember that day, our class was supposed to finish at 6pm but then the teacher finished class 30mins early, since she was living in downtown and had to take the bus/metro. =PP Oh yeah... and that day, I think someone tried to kill himself by jumping on the metro rail. So no metro for 30mins.... :/ Talk about a moment for killing yourself.....

    Last year, it was just 4 days to a week. No big deal. It was in May. Just couldn't go hang in downtown unless some friend had a car.

    But yeah, TTC should have given a date in advance. That's the way to do things. :/
     
  6. Yea. dammit. i was going to make a thread, kodak beat me to it.

    so ill just type my rant here.

    READ THIS IF YOU WANT AN IDEA ON WHATS GOING ON.

    I am so distraught by the non-professionalism demonstrated by the TTC Uniion of workers, and specifically, their leader Bob Kinnear. For those who do not know what is going on, the TTC Union of workers had completed their contract a few weeks back, thus allowing them to go on strike as the wish. The TTC made a deal with the Union to allow a 48 hour notice prior to any strike, so that the people of Toronto have a chance to reschedule their plans.

    Guess what. Yesterday, the Union went on strike at midnght, giving only a one hour strike notice, resulting in thousands of people being stranded in the Toronto downtown core. Do remember that it is a Friday night, and people are out clubbing and having fun. People who had no money for a cab or cannot get a ride had to start walking home, most with dance shoes.

    The TTC thought it had avoided the strike by granting the Union what it wishes, but unsatisfied, the Union went on a "surprise buttsex" strike.

    The first issue that was thought to be resolved was the issue of salary. The Union complained that neighboring transit workers get more pay than they do. So they wanted a pay raise. The Mississauga Transit which pays the most to its workers MERELY makes 5 cents more than what the TTC workers used to make. 5 FUCKING CENTS PER HOUR. THAT'S IT. The TTC gave the Union a 3% raise, thus immediately boosting the pay from 26 something to 27 something dollars an hour. That's like... 65 cents more than the Mississauga salary, and 26 bucks is already more than what people in technical jobs like new engineers make.

    Furthermore, some dude makes 140 000 dollars a year, from overtime pay. That's usually the pay of managerial and executive employers. But its the worker's decision to work overtime. FOR FUCK'S SAKES, THEY JUST SIT DOWN, COLLECT TICKETS, AND PISS OFF AT TRANSIT RIDERS. SUCK MY BALLS ASSHOLES.

    Next issue is the issue of compensation for injured workers. Before, workers get an 85% pay for injuries on work. Now the TTC gives them 100% pay, as they wanted. AND YET THEY STILL FUCK US IN THE ASS BY GOING ON STRIKE. These people have the IQ of a fucking seahorse. Kinnear was like... oh we dont want to give 48 hours because we're afraid riders will be angry and injure workers during the 48 hours. SO WHAT, YOU DECIDE TO SEND YOUR WORKERS TO HELL FOR THAT ONE HOUR NOTICE?!?!

    This guy has the brain of a fucking donkey. By giving 48 hours notice, people can reschedule and NOT GET STUCK DOWNTOWN, smartass. They would be less angry than they are now for that gay ass rape.

    I understand they want to look out for themselves, but these fucktards dont realize that if transit stops, the whole city stops. "Oh.. i just want to take care of my own workers.. im sorry for the riders, i didnt want to do this.." YES YOU THREATEN US WITH A NUCLEAR BOMB, WE SETTLED THE SHIT, AND YOU FUCKING SHOOT THE BOMB.

    GOD DAMMIT a bunch of unprofessional fools. i was driving and i see people waiting at bus booth, not realizing bus wont be coming.

    FUCK i hope McGuinty pulls the legislation off, and force these bastards back to work.

    HAD THEY FOLLOWED THE AGREEMENT FOR 48 HOURS NOTICE, NONE OF THIS SHIT WOULD HAVE HAPPENED.

    AND FUCK THEM FOR GETTING WHAT THEY WANT, AND FOR WANTING TO GET MORE. THERES NOTHING ELSE TO GIVE assholes.
     
  7. if i can recall the ttc are greedy bastards it seems like they hold an annual strike every 3 years its just ridiculous... the last one was in 2006

    not even the teachers strike as much as them
     
  8. NEWS

    in addition to the faggots with the Union on my avatar, all eyes are now on NDP leader Howard Hampton.

    If he says yes to the "back-to-work" legislature, ttc will be back on monday.

    if he says no to the "back-to-work" legislature, ttc will be delayed to up until Friday.

    now honestly. this bill was drafted in such a way that you can simply say yes or no.

    wtf. WHY THE HELL DO YOU WANT TO DELAY THIS SHIT. UNIONS OF FAGS AND THE NDP ARE PISSING ME OFF. they can all go suck on each others balls.

    NDP likes to delay shit. if Howard Hampton delays this bill, he should get a stick shoved up his ass.
    Union are greedy bastards. Kinnear should get raped by five donkeys.

    Oh yeah a friend showed me a video and how there's this sign that says: "Want 30.00/hour? Go to University." on the front door of the TTC subbway. And there's alot of people who went downtown today from areas far away and they can't go back home unless they take a 30.00 taxi ride which is ridiculous. i seriously hope they aren't on strike for long because Monday I've got to go someplace at 8:00AM and it would be a killer to drive. Anyone know if the buses in Vaughan are still on? Or GO trains?
     
  10. ^ Go trains and the YRT are unaffected.

    i have another story!!!

    today is raptors game for every1 out there and i never drive to work because ttc is cheaper and fasteer and gas + parking is costly....so i leave at 1 i get on the gardiner and theres like NO TRAFFIC and got to ACC on time however i didnt not know where BCE place is so i had to drive in circles until i see WELLINGTON not BCE so i went in assuming they are conneccted...then i keep goin down and don't see BCE PLACE sign, just WELLINGTON CENTRE...so i just parked anywhere then got off took elevator up to pay for parking with staff discount and i couldn't find where to go and i went up and down the stairs and saw a security employee of ACC and found out what to do.

    after work i was gonna drive friend to eatons so we went to the parking lot and i DID NOT KNOW WHERE I PARKED, i assumed i parked at P4 because the elevator ride was kinda long when i went to P1 the first time...so we went to P4 and no sign of cars around and i walked around thiking some1 stole my car then went to P3 and again no sign of my car even tho i pressed the alarm button no sign...i was like WTF and then we walked back to the elevator to go to P2 and saw the security from ACC i saw because and told me i was at P2. Ok, so we got out of the parking lot and headed towards bay then queen and OMG the cars were jammed then i dropped off my friend at queen and thoguht i could CHEAT traffic by goin on the gardiner then i almost go to the entrance while on lakeshore however lakeshore had no cars so i took the cahnce of goin on lakeshore and BOY WAS THE TRAFFIC BAD!!! basically i could have walked faster than i drove!!! im not even kidding and i was watching gardiner traffic goin slow but at least it MOVED! and i was basically BRAKING every 10 seconds...SO PISSED OFF!!! took me 1hr somethin to go home and my friend liek 30 min and she lives in north york west side...if i take subway to work it is like 30 minutes only!!!!

    the moral of the story is
    FUK YOU TTC!!!!! AND FUK UR FAMILY!!!!!

    Wow today I was thinking about all those poor souls who had to buy BIKES as another way of transportation home. Oh and I wonder if anyone sneaks out at like 1:00AM and has to take the TTC to sneak back home? Well if the TTC is on strike and that person didn't have a way back home it would SUCK because their parent's would figure out that they've been gone ... My cousin just called home saying he's at a friend's house but don't know how to get home =/ He asked me to drive him in this hour and I told him he's nuts! Oh and I've only got my G1 so ... that's no help either. Well it's not 1:00AM yet ... lol... and his parent's don't come home until very late but he's so going to get busted cause he's got three hours to figure something out. They drive so it's probably going to be less. TTC SUCKS.

    I'm guessing that he5tar is implying that the TTC workers are doing this on purpose just to laugh at the citizens by NOT giving the 48 hours notice. That's what I got from reading it over...it was confusing @_@ and I laughed when I read it. But I'm guessing that's what he meant.
