My attitude is that if you get a government *paycheck* (not to be confused with a social security check) and you’re not a uniformed member of the Armed Forces you’re probably a Maoist parasite hack.
$32 an hour. Somewhere Ralph Kramden is spinning in his grave.
Exhibit A:
POW! ZOOM! SanFran citizens...to the moon!!! Idiots.
DH and I were in Walnut Creek last year when the BART strike was on - the second one and we were also there for the first as well! Parking is atrocious in SF so we use the BART to get over to the other side of the bay whenever possible.
Daughter works in SF but boss said she could work from home, her roommate, however HAD to show up. She got dropped off at the farrey at something like 4 am — with a mass of other people already waiting. It was a nightmare and the roads around the city were jammed, it certainly put a dent in our plans.
We ended up leaving early.
$32 an hour to drive a bus?
Or to run a trolley or cable car.
Most of the inner-city buses in SF are trolley-buses too, operating on electric wires.
San Fran folks can always commute via the “ Gerbil Tube” ;- )
There is nothing wrong with San Francisco that wouldn’t be solved by an 8.7 quake
8.7? You lack imagination.I'd say 10.7
Just to be sure
Please,I live here.
That would be like wishing hurricanes on Fl.
I just elect to not visit SF or spend any money there,besides the public transportation is deplorable and let them raise the pay and slide into their own tax oblivion.
Who cares.
