@SFMTA Violating senior employees rights to sign up for vacation based on MOU required seniority?! Looks like another PERB case, that’s time and money! @DanielLurie

[TWU250A @TWU250A]

@DanielLurie Thank you Mr Mayor for taking a stand for Cable Cars! You should not even have to, they are protectedish by the City Charter (it’s being violated.)

[TWU250A @TWU250A]

@DanielLurie We thank you!!! Next could you make SFMTA respect Charter runs! 8A.114

Proud to support the Community Transit Act to bring 17,000 signatures to City Hall to qualify a transit measure for the November ballot to Fund the Bus. Let’s make sure people with disabilities, students, and seniors continue to have access to reliable public transportation.

@Ahsha_Safai Thank you so much for stepping up and taking a stand! Appreciate you!!!

SFMTA Rep @GRoccanova said about operators: “They are above market by every possible measure” according to Chronicle @rachelswan. Which are those? Boston has longevity pay, SFMTA no. Health insurance premiums like @atu265? Pension contributions?

SFMTA Rep said about operators: “They are above market by every possible measure” according to Chronicle @rachelswan. Which are those? Parking? Travel Time? Shuttle back to the yard?! All other major agencies in the Bay Area yes, SFMTA where we would actually need it, no. Gina?!

[TWU250A @TWU250A]

SFMTA using Jackson Lewis law firm, tops in the US in union busting, to threaten transit operators with termination. Refusal to address scheduling and employee commuting challenges not addressed! Protest today 11 am 1 SVN!

@ckrueger99 This is great news. Trollies are so much better at cutting carbon emissions than electric only!

[TWU250A @TWU250A]

SFMTA suspending more people knowing that the arbitrator is going to reverse the suspension. What does that mean? The employee is not going to work for 3 days but later get paid for not working. What ever happened to "service needs"?!

[TWU250A @TWU250A]

@Ahsha_Safai Congratulations BOS members and new Board President Peskin! FYI the SFMTA IS STILL violating the City Charter regarding Cable Cars! HELP! We have a PERB meeting on the 18th. HELP! @sfbos @LondonBreed @AaronPeskin @SFMTA_Muni

[TWU250A @TWU250A]

@BayAreaDBags @SFMTA_Muni Just letting you know we represent Bus/Train/Cable Car operators but those mini-buses are outsourced. Hope to see you on Muni soon!

[TWU250A @TWU250A]

Two more operators fired! Even less service now! They have also increased the 1st “going with the flow of traffic” from a verbal warning to a 3-day suspension, eliminating steps to firing even more operators! Why retrain when we can just fired them! 🔥

[TWU250A @TWU250A]

Wish us luck tomorrow we have a difficult case. One of our employers has a member up for a 3-day suspension for running a green light. But they don’t like to talk about it 🤫

[TWU250A @TWU250A]

The SFMTA’s excuse is operator shortage (then had a hiring freeze for a year) then gets their kicks out of suspending operators! Wednesday 5 operators in front of arbitrator for a total of 15 days of suspensions. Arbitrator reduced that to 1! 14 more days of service! Thanks 250A!

[TWU250A @TWU250A]

SFMTA please stop blaming your inability to provide service on “operator shortage” when you continue to suspend operators in violation of the MOU. You cut service and then the arbitrator makes you pay them and drop the charges! Stop the madness!

@sfmta_muni Still breaking the City Charter…
