Whoever keeps spreading the b.s. that Mr. Romney, the 2008 Presidential candidate, did a good job as the head of the 2002 Salt Lake Olympics needs to fix his/her forked tongue !!
Bus drivers for the public and for vips like Sports Illustrated had to work-drive from 6am to 2am with only 4 hour off to sleep !! That is a huge safety violation and overlooks DoT's federal 8 hours off in 24 hours rule. Bus companies and bus drivers were threatened with being fired back home for breaking the 'contract' with the Olympics when the SLOC lied to us all about a fair wage and then driving 2 days to get there cut out pay in half by having us work not the promised ' no more than 10-12 hours, but these very unsafe hours. Many bus drivers and bus companies like LA's Hotdogger bus company quit rather than risk accident to $400,000 buses and injury/death to passengers and pedestrians or other road vehicle occupants. I was there and quit in less than 7 days.
Stop the b.s.
