Yeah, it’s the same with the union railroad workers. It’s ridiculous.

Yeah, it’s the same with the union railroad workers.

A great example: I was on the Coastal NJ Trainsit line to New York on Friday. Pulling up to the Elizabeth station I spotted two guys who were throwing salt or something down to melt the ice from the recent storm. Ahead of them walked some guy with a hand held radio and trailing them was a guy with a yellow vest and stop sign in his hand.

Four employees - two of whom were actually working - the other two who were just walking. Is that an efficient use of man power and time? And - all four union members collecting a paycheck subsidized by tax payers.
