Examiner: Muni has gone over its overtime budget
“Through Feb. 20, the transit agency paid out $29.6 million in overtime, or about 96 percent of what it had budgeted for payments this fiscal year, according to the latest data.”
Ken McDonald ominously stated that reducing service and cutting lines will solve the overtime budget overrun.
I’m shocked. This is SOP. Never hire enough regular workers. fill missing slots at time and a half, run out of budget early, stop buying repair parts, INCREASE missing runs, give drivers the cushiest wages in the industry, embezzle funds for the mayor’s pet projects. What year was this this?
