A C R E division OF MTA SPRING 2005 #5

Screwing the people, who move the people, who move the world.

MTACRE General Chairman Tony Botalicko better known as T B has announced his retirement from his position as MTACRE General Chairman. Unfortunately, he will stay on as a consultant for MTA. After the announcement he agreed to an interview that only lasted a few seconds and delivered the real reason behind the decision, it's all about the money. I have done everything possible for these people and now it's my turn. I can double my salary without any interference from the Department of Labor or Justice Department and I will finally get that self anointed freedom fighter Art LeMay off my back. The man should have been fired years ago and why he wasn't, is a mystery to me. Exposing everything our association has done and embarrassing the MTA and some officers in the process, it's unforgivable. He is totally ungrateful.

legislative corner

MTACRE Legislative Director Jackal Lyn Gains has introduced a proposal that would send Metro North Conductor Art LeMay packing for good. It's a simple process , said Jackal Lyn Gains, I call it the 3-D Law, if you are guilty of Disclosure, then you must be guilty of Disloyalty and therefore you must be Discharged . There you have it, 3-D in a nutshell. MTA Gary Laperson was impressed with the originality of the proposal but added that it will be tough to it get passed. You're talking ethics; I can't see how we could control this sort of thing . MTACRE General Chairman Tony B agreed ethics must be one side and controlled. Not everyone is entitled to fair play, that's why we have leaders and a Constitution at MTAcre, to weed out and prevent this sort of thing. Art LeMay was not available for comment. It appears Art is too busy fielding more facts and secret memos about the boys at MTACRE

Bobble Head Dolls

MTACRE bobble head dolls will soon be available. They will feature MTACRE Officers, they are a bit pricey, but the profits will go directly into the pockets of the MTACRE officers. Why should we change the way we do business now said TB. We have been doing business this way since 2000 and it has paid off handsomely for all the MTACRE officers . The Dolls are a great idea, said MTACRE officer De Hollorland; when you can't get a vacation change…you just whack it in the privacy of your own room. Whacking it has helped me over the years; in fact this is my 12 th straight year. MTACRE Legislative Director Jackal Lyn Gains, not wanting to be left out was assured that his head would be the first on the block. The thought of being left out would just kill me. MTA Sun Ray Burnay could not stand it any more, I should be first, its unfair he added , if it wasn't for all those memos about "Pay for Union Business" these guys wouldn't have any attention or extra income coming in. Meanwhile be on the look out for those Bobble Head Dolls.  Remember, show your MTAcre card and save.

MTACRE is the best union association, money can buy . It's a work in progress…
