I'm not seeing any interest from either side in negotiating. Also, it was earlier written on this list that the jobs of the Southwest Transit drivers aren't comparable because they only run rush hour express routes. Checking http://www.swtransit.org/routes.htm , the Southwest transit web site, I see busses running all day (M-F) along with a couple of local routes out in the 'burbs. Perhaps they'll settle before the State Fair so we don't have to try to find a parking space out there. Terrell Brown Loring Park __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!
