Work has got me so aggravated and upset. :={

Yesterday my partner and I, at around 1p, noticed that some antennas were missing from their temporary location. Then at about 2:30p our supervisor calls him and asks him where he was. Raf told him he was sitting on the train and the supervisor then asks if Raf knew about the antennas being moved. Raf said no, he wasn't notified. Our supervisor then said it wasn't important and we'll handle it tomorrow, today.

We get in today and find the antennas had been moved back to their original locations and were mounted wrong. One of the things they did was to use cable ties to hold 20' tall station master antennas. 8=0

Well, we nearly hit the roof! Here the antennas were moved without us being told about it and they did it totally wrong! We had a meeting with the contractor to discuss how to fix said problems. They have to rebuild some scaffolding, as the upper antennas are 30' above a construction platform. Not our problem, but it is maddening.

Our manager said they tried to call us but we were already on the train. We explained that we were not told the gravity of the situation and were told to wait until tomorrow.

I also got chewed out for being on the train at 2p to go from Sunnyside Yard to Penn Station. Now wait a second, if they called at 2:30p and I was needed at PSNY and I was already there what is the problem? Otherwise they will have to wait until I drive or catch a deadhead move.

so now they want me to wait until 4 -4:30p before I can leave SSYD. I hope nothing serious happens in PSNY while I'm sitting in SSYD, because it'll take me a bit to get there.

There is an ongoing problem of people calling at the last second needing us to be around, when they know well in advance they might need us. Poor planning, or communication, on your part does not constitute an emergency on my part!

Is it any reason I say radio is the forgotten department? It is forgotten until something breaks. :=/

BTW, that letter would be one of my resignation. :=/
