Members of New York City's Transit Workers Union came out Tuesday in a show of support for workers who have been violently attacked on the job. Among the victims of a recent string of assaults is a bus driver who is struggling to return to the job that pays the bills after she was punched in the face by an angry passenger. "It happened on Friday, June 7th. It happened in the morning, 11:30 am," the victim recalled at Tuesday afternoon's press conference.
"Before I could finish I was getting punched in my face driving and I still had to make sure I don’t crash and keep people safe on the bus," the victim explained.What adds to her worry is this isn’t the first time for her or her colleagues who feel like they’ve become the city's punching bags for pent-up anger.
