This board is no more or less threat than any other chatboard. It's a public forum in which you can exchange information, viewpoints and so on.

As an employee, it is your obligation to treat confidential TA information as just that: confidential. You don't post what you are not permitted to post. It's that simple.

Members of the public can read and post here what they like, subject to whatever their employers don't want to reveal. For example, a Bombardier employee would not post here a list of other employeess' salaries or social security numbers. It's common sense.

If a member of the public sees something hapen on a train (doors opening on the wrong side or whatever), that person is free to post about it and discuss it on this board or any other (like newspaper-sponsored chat sites or neighborhood boards or the Strappies or whatever). You as an employee are not obligated to reply to posts, and may choose to skip threads where you consider the discussion not appropriate for you.

However, you have no legitimate expectation, nor should you ask, other people to refrain from posting things of interest to them. You operate in a public environment, not a closed-off building. If a rider discusses a mishap here, that's legitimate. If another TA employee discusses it and violates TA policy, then, if you know who it is, maybe you can find a way to deal with it through your supervision at work.

Simple as that. Follow Train Dude's example. Look at how and what he posts.
