I work for MNR serving the public and don't get paid very well (hence I work a 2nd f/t job) I'd appreciate free rides on the subway or buses. But should it happen? No.NYCT is not a city agency (some employees of NYCT may be city) it is a state agency. The only ones who should ride for free IMHO and by current day rule is NYPD/FDNY. That is it. Sorry, city workers have a job like anyone else and should pay like everyone else. A lot of workers work with the public and don't make much money either. City workers in other areas and states don't get free public transit, hell some don't even have a public transit system. City workers can get TransitChek and pay much less than the $89 MetroCard. I get TransitChek too from my non-MNR job and quite content with it. |
