Mass furloughs, told you on march 21st, 1 month ago, and would have been sooner, BNSF corporate monitoring and trying to state lies and distract from what they are doing, more furloughs most likely coming on Friday or Monday.

@187 He does have a point. The union really isn’t doing anything for us. The only time I ever hear from them is when I’m in trouble. They tell me to timeslip contractors on the property, but then my job gets cut. They’re not supposed to discriminate against timeslips, but they do. We can't call the hotline on anyone because HR just screens them in my location. They shut the door on employees faces. When I wanted to talk to The shop supt. in my location, they were both in there and she literally slammed the door in my face.
@16z Its a dog eat dog world. If your slacking, im Videoing you and showing it to foreman. Then the foreman can keep their jobs because they are firing people that are slacking. Better them than me. My unions isn't fighting for me so thats the best way to get senority.
@143 maybe not in your location, but they just cut again in red river yesterday, you sound like a company man running interference, comments like yours age really bad and make you look really stupid, especially when someone like you gets on here and 5 days later the company cuts more. You are probably a relief rat or a foreman playing whose desk can you get under fastest
Friday and Monday has passed. No layoffs lmfao. OP is very inaccurate
@p6 monitors were on property in Belen and headed to temple next based on “reports” and heard that havre, Topeka, and alliance, tx , and Tulsa were all on their scheduled visits
See what Monday brings…
@p6 nope
Monitors for efficiency are back on property, all supervisors have been instructed to conduct more camera ops testing, and violate agreements if need be under the guise of insubordination. Any refusal will result in automatic being pulled from service pending investigation, senior employees have already been pre warned, and instructed that even good faith challenges will result in being pulled from service, with conduct becoming the leading charge, rather than the task being challenged.
It’s Friday anything?
@gk Unions want raises but no job security. Here before long, no one will be paying union dues because of no employees. We use to have in our contract "If contractors are on property, no one in the craft will be laid off," not not more. They have more contractors on property now than they ever have. They have progress rail and other contractors like them ready to get your jobs. They aren't hiring anymore carman or mechanical jobs.
How many job loses will it take for us union “brothers” to finally say enough is enough? Gonna wait until you’re on the chopping block? Guys with 13+ years just lost their jobs their careers. Guys who worked their As--s off day in and day out and actually enjoy their jobs unlike those up at the top of the list who do nothing but sit on their a-s and complain about everything yet do absolutely nothing to make a difference what so ever. What’s it gonna take? Weakest unions I have ever seen.
@fb ope leeches***
Time for a wildcat strike id say. But but our union leaders will end up in jail for it…..at this point F em they haven’t done a damn thing for us for years. Constant job loses and not fighting for us at all. A bunch of yes men bowing down to the greedy corporate leaches.
If they scrap their old locomotives, they can make a lot of money off that. Gilllette, Alliance, Montana, Galveston, etc have tons of them. The traffic will never see the volumes of 2011. They are going to make some big changes soon. I'm telling you guys, do not make any major purchases soon. They have the wrong people in charge here. If your not licking their boots, your out. You can thank you local HR people for keeping dirtbags employed, they are for the exempts, not you. That makes bad people working and its all their fault. Lets screen those hotline calls.
Good luck finding a decent paying job in today's job market.
HR really doesn’t exist; clerks, IT, Payroll…there is a reason why the only way to reach any of those departments anymore is through the hub or apps on BNSF intranet, you will never get a phone call answered from them. Simply put, BNSF has created 3rd party contracted type call centers through the app in which they funnel the company responses through, or do it yourself actions, or company officers posing as the positions in which you call. Even EAP is now directly tied to corporate management, this was tipped off when company got rid of the ability to call EAP and report you had a dr-g or alcohol problem without your supervisor’s getting involved. The impartiality of HR has gone out the window in favor of AI and corporate responses.
