It's extortion that people who work their way up want raises? 70k in the

How does it compare with similar semi-skilled workers in private

jobs getting thousands of applicants for every opening?

It's important to remember that BART was designed to be fully

somewhat similar to an elevator operator.

They want raises for the same job, no working up the ladder.
