LOL to all the haters at Bellevue
If NS follows the PSR play book like the other class 1's have, then the layoffs are pretty much guaranteed. I was let go from the CP and the UP because of PSR. I had 22 years of service, and was let go along with 300 others at the yard. Under PSR, NO JOB IS SAFE INCLUDING WHITE COLLAR JOBS. Some of you may not agree with this post, but it's the honest to God truth. Be prepared as best as you can. If you haven't made plans or started looking for alternative income, then you better start right now. It's not going to get any better.
You’re not gonna believe all the cuts coming in 2021. Gonna be a blood bath. OR is everything and the only thing.
Don’t worry everyone will eventually get laid off and replaced with artificial intelligence, don’t worry the FRA will back the carriers
Louisville has cut off 24 jobs this year.
2 Clerks from SCX gone next month. Merry Christmas NS says!
They just took out 6 store house at JLS.
No facts just common sense. If your closest competitor has an OR in the mid 50s you are going to match or surpass it. They obviously are not going to cut white collar job or they would have by now. So the only way to reduce is less equipment less people, longer faster trains. If some of these places that were cut hard before think they can’t cut more think again. Those locations are obviously not part of the “network” and have higher probability of being cut again without having a large impact on service.
