a commute, but really not enough trains for that to happen. >> reporter: you know, a lot of the things that are parked are the cable cars. a lot of disappointed tourists this morning, but also a lot of frustrated people who could not get to work on time because of that stalling in the talks. a lot of them waiting a very long time to get onto those cars, and many of those cars packed like sardines. >> it sucks. >> reporter: he's just one of the many commuters caught in the middle of the labor talks between muni operators and the san francisco metropolitan transportation authority.

work. but i don't mind walking. i probably should have left the station earlier. >> reporter: it's a delay that the union representing the operators and fmta have not worked everything out. there was a vote on friday but the results have not yet been released. the sympathies of the passengers caught in the middle are divided. >> i understand where they're coming from. but then again, i'm not sure what else they're supposed to do. >> your neighbors are the ones that have to go to work. not the board members, everybody else. i wish you would figure out a different way to communicate that, as opposed to just calling in sick. >> reporter: now, i contacted a number of people with local 258, the transport workers union. the website reads, quote, contract negotiations have been very contentious. sfmta says they have nothing to give our membership. now they're crying broke. the most important issues they list on the website are health care, increased retirement contributions, parking, part-time operators, and wage progression wages. >> sounds like maybe we have lost kris there in the audio. but we will continue to check that issue. and there you see the rest of the demands. health care perhaps the most important today. all right. another story still developing this morning. right now the fbi is on a nationwide manhunt for a bay area man. they say this man is armed and dangerous. authorities are looking for this man, 42-year-old ryan chamberlain from san francisco. they swarmed his apartment over the weekend. there they found explosive materials and collected more than a dozen bags of evidence. an fbi source says that crews also found a chemical in the apartment that can be deadly if it's not handled correctly. investigators say the chemical found is often used to assist in suicides and is likely purchased online. chamberlain worked for a well-known media consultant and high-profile politicians, including gavin newsom. those working with chamberlain were stunned by the news. >> ryan, turn yourself in. don't hurt anybody, don't hurt yourself. you know? let's get it all straightened out. you can move on. >> chamberlain's neighbors described him as quiet and polite. here's another look at ryan chamberlain, again, wanted by the fbi. he's described as 6'3", about 225 pounds. he was last seen driving a white 2008 nissan altima with a california or texas license plate. again, the fbi says he is considered to be armed and dangerous, so don't approach him yourself but do call 911. we'll continue to follow this story as it develops.
