It was announced Friday that Thomas Prendergast, Chairman of the MTA will soon be stepping down from that position. His past positions included appointment as General Manager of the NYC Transit Authority and President of the LIRR, where he was affectionately known as "Baby Hughey". He was so endeared by LIRR employees that one defecated on his desk, prompting the installation of a million-dollar surveillance system in the LIRR's general offices.
Always the presenter of a healthy ego, Prendergast outfitted his office with a NYCTA signal, to display "his instant mood" to visitors. A green signal indicated he was happy and accepting visitors, a yellow indicated that visitors may be abused while a red signal meant Prendergast was busy -- probably sanitizing his desktop. Despite the security system, the signal was stolen and found smashed in his parking space.
The demise of this blowhard will hopefully usher in a new age of management-labor cooperation and fiscal responsibility, both of which have been sorely lacking since this political hack's arrival on the scene.
