Can't you just see the 'government/management/MTA' negotiator tisk tisking, wagging his little finger, and smirking while he reminds himself that these idiots have no bargaining power because they can't strike. Ouch.
Of cousr if I was the man on this one, I'd fire them all as fast as they could say "one million dollars a day?"

I think it went more the other way in this case.
The union figured they had the city over a barrel and could make unreasonable demands.
I'd fire them all and let them come crawling back for their jobs one by one
