Dialogue at official meeting of the BART Board of Directors - June 25, 2009

[TheRosegarden46]

the context is a discussion about negotiating with sfo workers and bart, a conversation that wasn't going to occur over the weekend.

fang was being blamed for targeting sfo workers with the new surcharge, when the intent was to spread the fare increases to different groups. he was not saying this to screw the workers, but as a self deprecating way that he was being unfairly characterized, when a solution with sfo workers was available

[RAPP81]

Do you have the exact time in the full MP3 where Fang made the remark?

Also when listening to this propaganda YT clip using headphones, I can so tell that his sound bite was INSERTED in!

Again, very deceiving...

To listen to the complete recording Google "BART on the record" and search for the June 25 meeting.

Yeah as if the Unions never say this kind of shit about the Board of Directors.

Also what kind of "fair bargaining" is it for you cocksuckers to make ILLEGAL SECRET RECORDINGS OF MEETINGS and then put them on the fucking internet?

The ATU is a bunch of cunts. You are the shittiest rudest and laziest employees and BART and I hope you all get fired.

[thebutch72]

oh yeah, if they fire all the workers, clerks, payroll, train controllers, operators, station agents, then it would be about 2 years before BART would be up n running you dip shit.

[thepartyb0y]

It is only the Station Agents and the Train Operators who are holding the Bay Area HOSTAGE.

Just because 400 lazy workers are being GREEDY they are going to disrupt the lives of 340,000+ Bay Area residents!!!

FUCK the ATU!

FUCK the Station Agents!

FUCK the Train Operators!

You greedy sons of bitches all deserve to be fired!

If you think you have it so fucking bad QUIT WORKING AT BART.

I hope that this makes it on the news.

Um RAPP 81 instead of buying into all of one sided coverage against BART Workers why not dig a little deeper and find out what the issues are before siding with management and hating on the workers! It ain't about money it's about BART wanting to union bust and crying poor at the same time to win over uninformed people like you

[RAPP81]

I have tried to dig deeper. Guess what? I'm not finding anything substantial. If the ATU wants sympathy from the riders, find someone who can relay your side in a cohesive and credible manner. So far, all the rhetoric I see/hear officially from the ATU and its leader is just pure rubbish. Listening to Jesse Hunt answer to reporters is like listening to Sarah Palin answering to reporters!

[RAPP81]

Um.... how about giving the public the WHOLE bit instead of a very limited cut? In fact, how about providing us a ten (10) minute cut instead of 25 seconds (I cut the silence out of the :33 running time)?

VERY DECEIVING! Just like how you relay to your riders how justified you all are for voting the contract down!

[craigsheezy]

i have to learn to say nice things...not mean things.

[doktahyde]

So the board of directors feel peoples livelihood is a laughing matter. SMH
