Re: NJ Transit engineers go on strike @ 12:01 am 5/16/25

Posted by Fisk Ave Jim on Fri May 16 10:53:19 2025, in response to NJ Transit engineers go on strike @ 12:01 am 5/16/25, posted by Gold_12Th on Thu May 15 23:26:24 2025.

I hope they get a fair raise and the strike doesn't drag on too long. They should get parity with the LIRR & MN. But if a the strike drags on, some "unintended consequences" might result. Such as more commuters joining the WFH crowd. When that happens, ridership goes down thus making for an excuse to cut service. Service cuts means layoffs. Its a double edged sword. Fine, you get a nice raise only to face the possibility of your job/run being abolished with ensuing layoff(s).
Lock both sides in a room over the weekend and don't come out until you've reached a deal
