I don't know the specifics of thier contract or specific jobs. But I do know about my grandfather that worked for the MTA most of his life.

No, you don't know about your grandfather. You know what you remember him saying, which might not be what he really said, which might or might not have any bearing on reality. Nothing personal, but if you weren't there, you don't have a clue what the actual conditions and events were, or how second-hand reports were tempered by personal feelings, etc.

Have you ever worked for the MTA? If not, any statements on the working conditions, pay, etc., are highly questionable.
