I worked for the Port Authority for 36.5
years at various facilities including the PABT, the Holland Tunnel, JSTC
(field office), JFKIA & my last years at LGA.
There were opportunities to move up
regularly, which I tried to do when needed and open, but the lasting &
most memorable in my lifetime with Mother PONYA was Job Sharing. It was
a new concept and people were willing to work with us -- to take a
chance that it could work smoothly with no interruption in procedure,
communication, and job performance. It saved my sanity since I hated the
thought of leaving my child, but knowing I had to work as we all do. It
was the best of both worlds - I didn't feel as guilty leaving him -- now
for a shorter amount of days, and yet I still felt grateful that I got
to spend more time with him in his "formative years!” Thank you Mother
PONYA!
