Yet another union worker racking up the overtime. She is in the protected class and will likely receive an award rather than criminal charges and fines.

There are limits to the number of hours that truck drivers can work in a given week. There are limits for airline pilots also. I think there are limits for railroad engineers. Why not for transit drivers?

1. 69 hrs? Too much, obviously. Now, why?
2. That’s a woman?

"Haywood has not been charged with a crime in the train accident, but she has been charged with crimes in the past, including misdemeanor domestic battery in 2006, misdemeanor reckless conduct in 2008, misdemeanor domestic battery and damage to property in 2010, and misdemeanor gambling in 2013."Since "She suffered injuries to her legs, back and neck during the incident", I'll go waaaaaay out on a limb and predict that the Chicago taxpayers are now on the hook for 60 years of disability payments.

The CTA says she worked 55 hours in the 7 days prior to the crash and that she had been off for 18 hours before starting her shift that day.
The union guy is lying, according to the CTA.
To: fulltlt
There are 168 hours in 7 days. This woman worked 69 of those hours, leaving 99 hours, or more than 14 hours per day for sleep & other activities.
I suspect a 25 yo woman was doing far more in those 14+ hours/day than sleeping, perhaps partying all night long with all that extra overtime money.
Many people routinely work more than 10 hours a day, yet do not fall asleep at work. Truckers & pilots come to mind.
I want to know what she did the night before the crash. I want to know how late she was tweeting & twerking, & how much sleep she had the night before.
Public transportation operators should be held to a higher standard. They are responsible for the lives of many people. Supervisors should be held responsible for the fitness of their operators to do the job safely EVERY DAY.

Next the union will demand each train have two operators (i.e. pilot and copilot) in the event the one actually in control dozes off.
Problem solved and union membership doubled.
