Rail Rodeo winner gets jobbed
I just got this inside scoop from the CTA Insider:
"Just found out the guy that won the Rail Rodeo last year for RTO (rail transit operator) was suspended for 3 days because he was late twice. How's that for gratitude? They got all this play off this guy on that CTA show (Getting Around I think that's the name of it) on public access and he loses 3 days based on our new guidelines!!!"
So, no one is above the rules, eh?
He was probably late because he took the CTA to work.

Carole cabs it for exactly this reason. She is a "choice" employee.
The real question here is: would the CTA have excused his tardiness if he'd gotten one of those hilarious tardy slips the CTA hands out when there is a delay?
