Do you think train operators should make a quarter million a year to drive the same train on the same route every day?

The "train operators" cited were averaging around $80k for a 40 hour week. That comes to an hourly pay of around $38, when not working overtime. I don't see that as crazy high pay for a place like SF.

The total pay is quarter of a million. 80k + "other pay" whatever the fuck "other pay" is.

Yeah. It's an actually useful job compared to writing surveillance advertising software.

What's "other pay?"

It's overtime that they get paid because the unions rules make it impossible to schedule normal hours.
