NYS Mta is is probably known as one of the most lucrative criminal enterprises known to commuter rail passengers. Massive pay and benefits packages for executive staff and their secretaries. Numerous junkets to other countries to ride their high speed rail systems in first class. Annual vacations lasting months at a time. Company vehicles every year.
BLET is the national protector that fights for fair pay and treatment for the LIRR operating crews who work tirelesly for commuters to get to work to support their families.

Bottom line: If MTA LIRR management gave a BLET member a good days pay for a good days work the Nassau and Suffolk County commuters wouldn't have to put their very lives in danger by using subway trains, buses and Uber "God forbid" in the city terminal zones.
Don't forget unions saves jobs
