Sydney trains are fukt. Pay rises means a rise is opal fares. when they constantly operate a service like this and fuk up every day people time and time again it negates the justification for a pay rise all together. Fuk Syd trains and the union leaches plaguing our once great train service
Train drivers earn enough!!! Check out the average wage … it’s around $150k! I mean medical doctors with 7-10 years training earn less than this when they start!! So many public services like police, ambulance, mental health deserve more … I reckon RBTU are just opportunistic grubs! NSW government should put a tender out for new drivers!
@@ironsword7 Inflation is 4% and they have been offered 15% over 4 years. Why should they get more than 16% over 4 years ? 15% is very reasonable. And why should 'safety' issues be written into a workplace agreement ? Safety should be written into law as standard, not a WPA.
@@gppsoftwareI can see math isn’t your strong suit. Maybe leave the negotiations to those who can math. You point out inflation is 4% well divide 15% by 4 as it is a 4 year agreement… That works out at 3.75% now subtract the superannuation figure they trotted out which was mandated anyway for all workers by the Federal Government so they’ve given nothing. That works out at 3.5% which is a pay cut in real terms of 0.5% based on your own figure. 3.5% is the government wages policy figure so they haven’t moved their position at all, neither has the union and rightly so. Haggling means one party bids high and the other low. The government seems to think it can just repackage the same number and trick the ignorant into thinking that they are negotiating in good faith. The figure the union has put out is fully offset by savings and efficiency gains so there is really no reason for the government to balk at the request frankly. At the end of the day the unions figure would bring wages in line with interstate operators and stem the flow of qualified employees going to other states for more money and a lower cost of living.
The public who pay their wages have had enough. They are employees, if you are not happy move on. If you continue to hold the public to ransom, here's an idea for the state government shut the network down for a month and focus on maintenance. If they don't return to work at that time extend the shutdown and start hiring and training and sack them all. The employee stipulates the wages and conditions not the worker. Nurses bus drivers and many others have more of a case for increase. It's time the government got on the front foot.

The moment I heard reports in the media that the Northwest metro patronage was up 50% I though that once people experience this metro, they will be asking why all Sydney services aren't like it!
@ yeah me too. It’s no secret the unions in general have been instrumental in changing the way workers are trained and paid by employers. Unions have done more for Australian workers than you or I ever will. On the whole it’s hard to argue against the benefit unions have been in the past decades ( unless you’re a employer lol ) but it’s not black and white like your suggesting. Literally nearly every right we have as workers was fought for by unions including the 40 our work week. I fukn hate labour but the liberals are not in anyway looking out for the everyday workers. Never have been never will
Ridiculous demand from union. Why do they think they deserve that much pay increase while causing thousand others losing wages because they couldn’t get to work
Fuk the unions and shitty rail. They’ve caused me so much stress and loss of work. I rely on the trains to work and feed my family and these grubs constantly pulling this shit breaks me on more ways I can express.
Not even ! Who wants to pay more for opal when they treat the public like this?? Shitty rail workers are just as big lot of grubs as these union jokers hurting families

Historically Trump has renegotiated existing trade deals with worse outcomes for Australia. What is he fixing exactly and through what political mechanism?
Sydney railway staffs torturing poor people of Sydney to pressure government for their greedy pay hike. Please raise your voice against their cruelty. It's our tax money and our pay they eat and we suffering. Let them do picketing at government offices instead of troubling poor people.
When the level of demand exceeds & outweighs the level of productivity, one must ask how such an exorbitant increase will somehow justify the lack of productivity. Lack of accountability cannot be rewarded. The reflection of a company's progress is not by making demands thru extortion or deception, if this Rail Union is to be paid anything at all, it must prove to the public its reliability & credibility are 100% because after all why should we, like the Rail Union expect anything less.👻👽🇦🇺
This is wrong, then no one is doing Uni thinking that they can earn $100k+ just doing a easy and boring job! But house price are getting more expensive and consequently causing price rise on food and every goods and services. they really need the pay rise while they can before train driving are replaced by robots! Blame the govt not doing anything to ease the housing cost!
Go Unions. Governments and Corporations will give you nothing unless you fight for it. Unions fought for a 40-hour work week in Australia for almost 100 years, and won in 1947.
This is the other end of the scale fool. Unions have gone a lot for Australian workers. This is a joke , no one sane is going to agree with what these jokers are doing to everyday Australians. Enough is enough
Unions are the bane of all productivity! WTF will this be resolved (this time)?????

An apology is an acceptance of guilt
15% is more than reasonable
they want 30% 🤣

Sydney need more driverless trains and lightrails.

Another reason to not depend on "city infrastructure."
Deregister the unions. They don’t run this county. Australians elect people to do this and they aren’t it.
Another example of the Labour Party being out of touch with the man on the street.
It’s the unions doing this. The liberals are not in touch with the “ man on the street “ who are you trying kid lol

30% pay rise is too much. I reckon 15-20% is reasonable.
15-20% would more than likely be accepted if the government doesn’t try to remove the safety clause

And all of this has long since been written in law. So what relevance have unions had since 1947 ?
