Anyone gotten their unemployment benefits from rrb yet, and figured out just who is responsible for the covid19 600 extra that we are supposed to be getting? I know that this has been asked before but with all the recent stupid post about butt... — read more

Projections show Union Pacific is on track to set an all-time operating ratio record and substantial profit for calendar year 2020. This coming on the heels of a pandemic strapped economy that has shuttered many of its shippers and a near shutdown of... — read more 

Think about it we are #1 with best numbers, quality, production. Thats why we will have no layoffs in shop. This shop is history and will be classified as biggest in world. Without north platte UP would be worse.

Nobody believes anyone in charge at UP cares about the "spiritual" or "economic" well being unless it is for themselves. https://finance.yahoo.com/news/union-pacific-sets-diversity-inclusion-150000181.html

Mark my words. Its over.

the phrase “being railroaded” wasn’t just made up for no reason. The railroads will always win. The only way employees can take a stand is to bypass the union and strike on their own. cut out rail on a busy main line. Perhaps hold the track and... — read more 

It's over now for sure people. It was nice working with some of ya.

The negotiations have failed. Plans are now being made to strike on Independence Day. UP is in for the ride of their lives. Let freedom ring. Let the whole world sing!

Latest news is that Signal Department is now taking over the Communications guys. Any word on the streets or what this will mean for Telecom Arsa's and Managers?

NUFF SAID

They use it to lock you into a military-type enlistment contract for one-year stints. They do this to make sure it hurts if you quit, because they know if they don't every new manager will quit in less than six months. They can also garnish your... — read more

Kudos to whom ever bought UP stock at 138$ nice chunk of change your earning.

Something big happening at top leadership. Corruption, scandal and inter executive flings.

Since UP stocks are skyrocketing the company will recall all furloughed workers and put locomotives to work.

Unfortunately PSR is alive and well on CN, CSX, NS, etc. CSX is still laying off and just released 50 at their headquarters in the past 2 weeks. NS closed Linwood Yard which was a major hump yard and laid off almost all employees there. NS has been... — read more 

Does anyone know when the cutoff date is for qualified vacation for 2021. Does taking voluntary time off affect the cut off date. Any more layoffs before or qualified time is up?

I wish someone from higher ups would come on here and just admit that PSR was a bad decision. UP made billions over so many years, had outstanding customer service, and many employees working, and morale was outstanding. Now I’m asked who you working... — read more 

A source from KETV Omaha states that Union Pacific is considering filing bankruptcy within the next month due to loss of revenue and outstanding debt.

Our debt on 3/31/20 is 26.3 billion. For reference on 3/31/17 our debt was 14.3. Can we keep financing these stock buybacks or is out long term debt and reduced car loads going to bankrupt the up.

The most obvious answer is Lance was in way over his head. That’s correct. Why else though? Because he was already retired and had nothing to lose. No self respecting high level executive is going to leave another company and come to this toxic... — read more 

Can we make that happen?

Doesn't matter what you do now. All pertinent people have already discussed who is expendable a and who can still be used.

Are you up for the challenge? What does it take to get attention! Ready set Go!

Then they furloughed everyone so nobody got the complete amount advertised. Bait and switch and classic UP. I know several people seeking legal counsel with plans to sue.

So driving by the NLR yard and there was maybe a few trains yarded nothing leaving, waiting on a light, yarding, being humped, or just passing thru. The last time I saw it this bad was in 2008 when everything tanked, I remember even in the summers... — read more 

We have the best and the brightest. Managers and agreement actually get along, the Managers talk more trash on the company than the agreement!!!! But we all get along, work together, we realize we each have a job to do and its nothing personal. Maybe... — read more 

Just remember your paid by the hour not by the car count.

In Ft. Worth we moved two managers to engineering to save their jobs! I guess no layoffs for managers after cutting 50 craft and closing 3rd shift at the diesel shop!

What an embarrassment. Lay off the entire hr department UP.

Will our union leadership try to get Conductors/RCL operators those in cab jobs if they go to 1 man crews? Like RCL where we were able to do our job without a Engineer and run the train. That's what they should be fighting for again if it's going to... — read more 

At this point with all the infighting between crafts and shops I hope everything gets contracted out. That way everyone suffers

So apparently the only reason we are having more layoffs is due to the pandemic. Hmmmm, makes me wonder if UP knew about this pandemic years before anybody else since we've been having layoffs non stop for that long. Or they are just using the... — read more 

Here we go. Its time. And when they bring intermodal in with contractors you carmen may be able to get a job. Its happening sooner than you think.

Maintenance of way is getting hammered as well.

Trash is more valuable than food. How does that make any sense?
