NYRA fires very important workers

"Hayward confirmed that NYRA will lay off 42 employees when Aqueduct opens. That includes 19 seating attendants, or whitecaps, 16 parking personnel, five admission clerks, and two program sellers. There will be free admission and parking offered at Aqueduct."


Good to see NYRA is cutting some fat, but can somebody explain to me how 19 people were being paid to seat people at Aqueduct. Where were they seating them?

How about the 16 parking personnel. Exactly what were they doing?

I believe that many of those "positions" were considered part time jobs.
