If already laid off just move on , they want out of everything except pulling trains , beside that they are just bad people .
He-l ya I'd go back
At my location supervision says they put there time in with 12yrs service to get weekends off but craft guys with more time can't touch the weekends!
No point in waiting on a dying company. So your self a favor. Go look for something else.
Yes I remember the good old days in the shops , actually did not take long to make it to first shift , great days off Tuesday Wednesday , Then psr hit took 13 years but I finally made it to 3rd shift. Great place to work. Glad to be gone now …
Go be a conductor, they need lots of those
You ever see that movie where the ship is sinking and there isn’t anything you can do to save it?
It’s nice. 4 out of 5 stars. Some supervisors are worse than others, but some mechanics are worse than there too, so that’s just life. Only thing horrible is having 20+ years of service and still stuck with bad days off and no chance for 1st shift.
Other than that it’s a dream come true!!!
