But....Then the MTA will be able to put out a press release saying that all employees are biometrically punching time clocks and that they are reducing fraud and waste. Remember, it’s not about cost or effectiveness. It’s about looking good. And that will look really good

This is very hard to see in a current crew book due to a west end heavy setup because, of course, the biggest yard is the farthest west of any location on the property.
Just a heads up, a lot of things that Datenail says are “definitely going to happen” usually don’t happen.I said its happening and its going to happen. And involve all employees. Details to soon be released as to where and when employees need to punch in. As I said some of the unions plan on refusing to use the time clock which is exactly what the carriers want so that it will end up in court. I would suggest working out something with the carriers to implement this system without leaving yourselves open to a judge to interpret your contract.
