coco the clown was one of them, there are many more, the ones that are uttered behind my back are the worst ones, but still, I rememebr there was one old head who was hell bent on making my life a living hell, I was teamed up with him the first ngiht, It was sunday, And we were about to do the 12 o'clock milk run, I had just gotten out of Church, from 12 o'clock on That entire 60 minutes he never had anythign nice to say, he would alwasy adress my in manners like, Hey toddler, or hey brat, and would tell me i'd never get anywhere and you know the usual routine.. I never responded believeing in the Honest Abe approach. Well we got off the Train, he got in his car, I got in mine, he had a heart attack and colided with a cement barriere on his way to lunch. Sure i still went to his funeral, I disliked his behavior, I didn't Dislike him, Deep down i could see he was insecure about his job, and he was ultimately worried that i'd do a better job then him, so all his goals were was to make me feel bad so I would ultimately do a terrible job. Well, I probobly owe that guy the biggest thanks of my life. Believe it or not, he taught me what the Railraod was about, and I know Ed has said this before in a reply to a girl called Lisa, he told her that the Railroad was about Cheap shots and one up man-ship (Rememebr that ED?) , how you always have to be better then the people around you. Well I met a guy, or they paired me up wiht Robert, an Engineer whose about 23. I like working with him, we call each other names for the fun of it, we rush if theres a Hockey Game on, and our Train has never been more then 30 secondes late. That really isn't much of a problem, except for exceptions, people aren't that possesive over their job enough to make new people feel terrible. Threr aren't that many new heads around, and my suggestion that we hire the hooters girls for conductors... well.. that one is still in the works., If I may, a quick storry, You know Ed was right, Good engineers make the job look like a sinch, I know that it is not, Even thoguh i could be an engineer, I would never be. Not fer me, I can't sit down like that, I can jsut see myself getting out of shape, I like the freedom to walk up and down the train to go and talk to trhe passengers. Sometimes, if theres more then 8 cars, we have the theird Conductor, and normally that makes times even better.
