The lady working from home and sitting next to lit fireplace is working hard to change how the public experiences public transportation
This has been going on for decades, you just now figured this out?
Nothing has changed since the $220,000/year janitor.
And that was 10 years ago. Interesting him.
Who?!
Yeah. I remember that story and the janitor was clocking all that overtime but not actually working. The BART janitor makes more than the CFO of a company.
It's good work if you can get it.
It was more than $220K. How about the $300K per year muni bus mechanic? It is very hard to grasp getting that kind of comp without a medical or law degree or equity grants from your tech employer on top of your regular salary.
So just like our politicians
but one group gets insider trading tips on top of their pay😉
For every hour of work missed. That's their jail time. Plus the wages owed.
it was bart management's job to verify and approve the clocked hours. will they be taking any responsibility for this failure?
That is because they are not being accountable. I remember, the news media wanted to interview them after the janitor incident where he was making CFO's salary.
The union will fight to ensure no punishment is made.
Right...the unions allow this.
Unions for unskilled workers is ridiculous, with teacher unions being the worst.
That's what unions are for. To protect the "hard" working employees so they can leech off of the taxpayers
@@Andorskiare you seriously calling teachers unskilled workers. Have you seen children
@@MrJimheeren Last I checked they claim to be just babysitters right? Unions and their quid pro quo with politicians is pretty obvious. All that lazy behavior and entitlement behavior. Have ou even seen SEIU advocating for DA Gascon claiming 30 convictions is no problem? Are you really going to double down on the things unions do? Sure, they will proptect you, but they are mostly protecting problematic employees.
😂that not theft! That’s where is the manager and supervisor needing to know where their employees are working for the day.
BART is like the prime employer for loopholes. Employees can pretty much do anything they want under management who does the same themselves.
yup....the biggest culprit of them all is Galvin Newsom and his posse at Panera Bread.
Supervisor’s obviously did a great job supervising
I need a job like this 😂😂
You can't just fire people any more. Now there has to be a committee, then an oversight board, then 5 other levels of review
Sounds a lot worse than fare evasion!
I know....I am always the first one to lash out at the assholes who jump over the gates, but this here is next level....🙄
no way! I bet it is a lot more than $9000.
Maybe $9000/ month?
Don't stop there. Look at IT and management. I work there for a short period of time and noticed many people absent from work many days of the week every week. I suggest you look at IT employees and the management staff overall as a whole. In fact, any employee who has a job that spans field requirements should be evaluated. There are no controls in place to watch these employees or to even verify the work they say they're doing is getting done. Bart is one of the biggest absolute messes of a place to work that I ever encountered in my 30-year career. Most of the people there seem like they're buying time and collecting paychecks for doing nothing. Very discouraging place to be.
Same entitled offenders. That's why they're sweeping it under the rug.
You wonder why BART is in such a budget deficit because of incidents like this.
The esculator at powell has been down for about a year. What is going on bart
$9000 seems like a month or two of work, I can’t help but believe it’s been going on longer than than this. They need to rewind the cameras back further but probably only saved two months worth.
Dig more. There's probably much more than this.
The same thing was occurring In Massachusetts. Towns which were disbanded/ dissolved within the past 50 years had many people on payroll for things the towns didn’t even actually do. It’s not the first time and it probably won’t be the last.
It’s Bart’s fault too. Poor controls.
Stupidity, I am sure BART pays pretty well and all you have to do is your job to get paid.
Nice! Retired with a fat check!
You know why stuff like this happens in California? Because instead of managing stuff like this, authorities are running around citing 102-years old senior citizens for having graffiti on their property instead.
A dishonest government employee...say it isnt so
😱
There has been no checks and balances for BART so the employees are getting free money and yet the fare prices keep going up every year. We've been hoping for change for years, but this is still happening. BART really needs another agency to keep it in check. Ridership has been down significantly since the pandemic and the conditions continue to get worse. If I can avoid taking BART, I will find alternative ways of transportation.
This makes me BARF
1:00 It's over $9000
$220,000/year janitor
Bart higher-ups are horrible. People don’t even even check their employees or what’s going on
They have doing this for decades. Does anybody remember when custodial staff were doing the same thing. He had been getting paid a 6-figure salary. They just wouldn't clock out.
As far as the high paid janitors, if BART is going to pay them $100,000+ per year, they should at least keep the stations and entrances clean. Some should be classified as toxic waste sites.
Not uncommon with government workers
But but but where is the supervisor
🤥🤥🤧🤧😏🙃🫣🫠
The supervisor is probably at home clocked in too and collecting their pay. I bet it involves more employees than they have reported. This will be wide spread throughout the BART system.
When you apply for a entry level Bart position and they’re like we’ve passed on your application to consider other candidates well I guess the other candidates just robbed you
Don't worry, BART has 5 people on the payroll to do every job. And it is the only public transportation agency whose unions do not have a "No Strike Clause" written into their contracts. So whatever you do keep them really really happy or they will shut down the system as they have in the past.
Get paid for clocking in at work and walking away. Any normal person will get fired, but not at BART.
more then half government employees work like this all the time
You all know this happens daily with plenty of their staff and yearly at least all their staff will have participated in this scheme multiple times each.
Let’s be real this is a union that actually hurts them and us.
Wow, what a surprise!
I didn't know any place in California took crime seriously. Wait, nope, 2 of the men felt sorry, so the police told them to just go talk to BART, really, in California if I say I feel sorry for a crime that's enough?
Nice swindle they got going on there. 😂
Bad BART employee at karaoke night:
"I'm not a productive person,
There's many crimes I wish I kind of didn't do,
But I continue failing,
I never meant to apologize to any of you,
And so, I have to say before I [f-bomb] go,
That I just want BART to know,
...
And the reason is I hate my job"
the question is how long they have been doing that?
Isn’t that called “quiet quitting”?
best comment here
An apt description of Congress.
Just another swamp in the United Swamps of America.
This is just who Bart has chosen to go after…
who approve the time card lol?
Does it matter? Bart never truly run out of money
Just like in Sacramento
Today, this is what's called "Quiet Stealing"
Nothing to see here.
Wonder why these employees' supervisors always slide?
You all remember the BART janitor that was making almost 300k a year? BART needs to be audited.
Where is the boss 😂, but guys don't worry.mama price got your back 😂🎉
Only a fool will working hard in government settings.
No it’s not dumb ass is a government entity
Ca except plates and a cal pers pension say otherwise
@@stuwest3653BART has a Regional Transportation District funded by public sources and run by an elected Board and BART staff. ie a public agency.
@@clarklowe5632 Wrong
@stuwest3653 Such an intellectual argument. This is from BART's website. Funding for it comes out of my taxes and I vote for the board of directors. If you don't think that makes a public agency obviously the education system let you down.
Wish Alameda county would prosecute crime like San Mateo. Recall Price!
The Union is going to be very pissed off. They worked hard to get a job they don’t have to work at
I knew a guy who did the exact same thing at a Ford Dealership in Fairfield 😂
Give the a judgment of paying wages owed and serve the time for every hour not at work.
I'm never using BART.
NICE!!! someone will always be SMARTER than you
They still give out warrants in SF?
So she works from home I think 😂😂😂
his management gonna be disciplined. what about the perps that ride daily
The same thing happened at an AC Transit maintenance facility. Some people are lazy and greedy.
wow
Hay, thats can only be done by cops.
Imagine my shock when a local, state or federal employee or elected official games the system and defrauds the taxpayers 😵 This has been going on for decades and the worst part is these people working in taxpayer funded positions pension are based on their highest earning years when it’s time to retire. You wonder why the state is broke!
How do you get a job at BART???? I want to work there!!! lol
Get in line
San Fran?? No way!!
Explains why Bart Employees don't do anything to help keeping Bart safe for all those riding the Public transit. Seen Bart Employees multiple times look directly at people hopping over the entrance area and do nothing about it. Employees don't do anything and just let the homeless, drug addicts, crazy people who don't pay fare go on the train. Then they want to go on Strike the other year talking about they are not getting paid enough. WTH Man, you are not even working. Still collecting a check and talking about I'm not getting paid enough. Smh 😕😠
They caught 2 how many others don't
So electronic payroll saves money
If they weren't broke, he didn't need to fix it.
That's what happend to studibaker
Breaking news
Muni drivers have done this for years.
CA public unions.....ruining the states budget forever
Unions. Gotta luv them.
When you buy employees are horrible people there no help greedy trolls
Rofl! Yet, they keep raising prices these cnuts
Kinda like everyone in the media. . .
No wonder why BART always comes back to the sucker voters begging for more money.
Somebody snitched I knew it
Cops do this all day. Everything is discretion.
Corruption is becoming normal in America
Note to self: get a government job.
Yeah SMART employees do that too lol
They will come to work and watch Netflix at their desk all day.
The power of Socialism, Communism, never enough of anything, especially your money. They take all of your money then leave you with this.
Everyone is taking money from Bart
What race are they?
It’s crazy how wage theft is so common but it’s rare employers ever face charges, but when it’s the other way around they’re quick to charge and arrest.
How about the BART employees who work more hours than there are physically in a full year to spike their pensions? $9K is peanuts. These guys must have not been very popular to be snitched on by their co-workers. One hand usually washes the other in these cases. Reminds me of the BART janitor whose entire shift involved sleeping in the broom closet while racking up overtime.
Reminds me of DEI employees and other bad apples who want that supervisor position too.
Let them stealvin peace
Lol
So that's why BART employee's favor and support DemoCrat Politicians the way they do !
🐉🐉🧧🧧🐉🐉🧧🧧
Mob jobs. 😂
😂😂
THAT IS SO NOT FUNNY!!!!!
