I could literally post the last 3 or 4 run pick schedules that would refute those claims. I could also post the missing runs that I take pictures off everyday while I'm working. It all comes down to manpower at the end of the day point blank. We all know about covid, IOD, sickbook entries, FMLA, fatigue and overall crime playing a big part with manpower issues. There is only so much CTA can do at this point. I've been taken off other runs to cover different streets due to major gaps either by the garage clerk or supervision. All in all the pictures I posted below are just the icing on this multi-layered cake.
