I worked with Natale from 1999-2007 and she wasn't a bad boss but she was boneheaded at times.Rumor mill has it she was Joe Smith's play thing and I guess with his retirement she's going the way of the Designline's. We will see how this pans out now that the media has it. |

I know about some of the seedy things she and other Joe Smith administration members have done. Most of their behaviors have affected bus operations and still do today. Also this casts doubt on the rightousness of the policies enacted by them. |

You're so knowledgeable about what, if anything, went on. You're an "inside the DOB/TA" man. You know it all. Guilty before trial. How come you know so much about anything that might have happened, Mr. Know-It-All? You're sounding more and more like another jerk on the board each and every day. I thought you were a construction worker..... perhaps you should build yourself a jail, step inside, lock the door and throw away the key. |

Well, that shows a complete lack of class, something par for you. At least I can read and talk properly and don't need to pepper my posts with 4-letter words, something you are not capable of, possibly because of a lack of education, a lack of smarts, or just desiring to be a so-called macho show-off jerk. |

Posted by AMoreira81 on Mon May 2 23:49:15 2011, in response to Adriana Natale, posted by MCI GUY on Mon May 2 16:03:39 2011. Curious: why is the MTA not trying to make a criminal case out of this and fire her, given that she used an NYCTA car for other than NYCTA business on NYCTA time? I don't believe that she's in a union position anymore.Here's the story. In addition, on the surface, it seems as though the MTA needs to introduce a New York residency requirement for management (i.e., anyone in management, or who gets an MTA car, must establish a residency within the MCTD). |

No Irick was an operator for about two years, then was a dispatcher about 7 then he got into scheduling as a Super.Its odd because generally after supervision yoo go into the school or road control but he went to scheduling. I think he has college but Irick is a common sense Boss who knows the job. The only bad thing is that he has so little time in operations spending the most in the office. So at times he expects a lot from people not really understading all the changes that have occurred since he was a dispatcher. But overall he's somone you can talk with and I have worked on a few capers with him. |

Posted by Mr Mabstoa on Tue May 3 00:42:08 2011, in response to Re: Adriana Natale, posted by AMoreira81 on Mon May 2 23:49:15 2011. Being she was the head (AGM) of Queens Road control she gets a car to drive home with in case a really serious incident occurs and she must come in.My neighbor who is a manager in Zerega gets a car when he has weekend coverage in the event of a serious accident (BST). Regular accidents are covered by road personnel but one that falls into the BST area he has to drive in and I live in Orange county. Managers sign an agreement with NYCT that if they move from their current home they MUST move into the five boroughs. So she probably lived in NJ when she went into management. |

The MTA has greatly restricted who can take cars home. Was she authorized ... that's the question. |

Posted by BrooklynBus on Tue May 3 11:50:06 2011, in response to Re: Adriana Natale, posted by Mr RT on Tue May 3 08:35:44 2011. This is difficult for me to believe. I met her once and corresponded with her several times and can't begin to tell you how nice she was. Knowing the MTA the way I do, I suspect there is another reason they wanted her out. Maybe she ruffled the wrong feathers. Cheating on your time is the easiest way to get you, and upper and middle management do it all the time. You don't decide to check EZ pass records for no reason at all. She was definitely targeted.I was also impressed with Joe Smith. Every time I sent him an e-mail, he responded the same day. I heard that he was also forced out. The MTA doesn't place a high regard on people who want to improve service, because that is not their goal. |
