I quit the video after about 5 minutes of waiting for the page to load, the video to start, the commercial to finish... I much rather would've preferred spending 20 seconds skimming the top of a Globe inverted pyramid text.
But what I got so far is that a lot of MBTA workers have neither HS diploma nor GRE, they lied about that on their job applications up to 20-30 years ago, and now the MBTA is offering amnesty if they come forward and get a GRE. So far, "as many as" 40 people have come forward, and some of them are in safety positions.
What I didn't see is why the T has so many workers who not only don't have an HS diploma but lied about it. Maybe there were hiring managers at the MBTA regularly telling people to lie on their applications, and this is how today's MBTA is fixing the problem.
why would a bus driver need to take the GRE?

that doesn't make sense to me at all. It's a skilled job but it sure doesn't require going to grad school.
I think he meant GED, not GRE

i put all this info in the post where the driver passes out and wakes up to find the bus has jumped the curb and hit 2 perps. i dont think ojs lawyer could . oh hold on my wife wants me to watch the wizard of oz. the t workers have all the attributes of the lion the tin man and the scare crow. no heart no brain and no courage. but black can be beautiful. but only if you go down dudley station and buy yourself a 20 dollar wig.
