Week in Review Jan 24 to Jan 30th 2022

Week in Review January 24 thru January 30th 2022 The week started out pleasant with me checking into Manhhattanville Depot to do my duties in the division. One of the depot reps came to see me to ask about how far back management can go back to discipline based on the sick control policy, at least that’s how I understood it. I was later informed that an Audit was taking place specifically on sick leave applications and that it was out of the hands of AGS Merv. Unfortunately he had brought one of the members in and was trying to go progressive on every sickform that the company was missing. Meanwhile the member was just brought in a week before by the G/S of the depot and spoken to about the sick control policy, so I thought it was odd that our member would be brought in again. I saw the Assistant General manager and asked why an Audit was being conducted all of a sudden. His response was that there was no Audit going on. I immediately thought to myself that AGS Merv was trying to start an issue in Manhhattanville Depot. The next day I reported directly to Manhhattanville Depot to observe the Morning pullouts and make it know on social media that I was observing the bus fleet. I conducted my divisional work resolving issues. The following day I reported back to Manhhattanville depot to conduct a TWU Audit of registrations, making sure every bus that pulled out was equipped with one. This went on for the rest of the week. By the time Thursday came we were preparing for a nor’easter. It was announced that NYCT will be starting with 20% curtailment , 40 artics from TAD -> 126…. Will hire 5 guys or more if possible to shuttle buses from 10p-6a (longer if needed) Also, there will be a shuttle driver for Tuskeegee brining operators back from 126-> Tusk Also, some Tusk operators will pull straight into 126, then get shuttled back to Tusk with pay. 60 shorts from Manhhattanville-> Tusk, MJQ, MTV,MCH will supply operators to make the moves , while there will be a shuttle to bring them back.. This will Start Friday 10p-6a (longer if needed) MJQ will get 20 shorts from SI, SI will arrange those moves Tentatively, we will start the reverse process of getting everything back on Sunday afternoon depending on storm Later Friday night I returned to Manhhattanville Depot to make sure the snow operations was in place Saturday the nor’easter slammed our area and Sunday all equipment was being sent to it original depot to start the week.
