IT'S SOMETHING YOU DON'T USUALLY SEE: SENIOR MANAGERS DOING THE DIRTY WORK. THAT'S WHAT SPOKESMAN RICK DE REYES SAYS IS ON A-B-Q RIDE MANAGERS' SCHEDULES FOR FRIDAY. THE MANAGERS VACUUM AND SANITIZE THE BUSES , CLEAN OUT THE SEATS, THEN SWEEP AND MOP. IT'S WHAT SERVICERS DO EVERY NIGHT.
DE REYES SAYS THEY TAKE MANAGERS THROUGH THE EXERCISE PERIODICALLY TO MAKE THEM AWARE OF HOW BUSES ARE MAINTAINED AND TO KEEP THE FOCUS ON WHAT CUSTOMERS NEED. A-B-Q RIDE IS THE CITY'S MAIN PUBLIC TRANSPORTATION OPTION SERVING ABOUT 13 MILLION PASSENGERS A YEAR.
