Technology is a two-edged sword. Nice for management to save costs, but not so nice for employees.</p> <div style="clear:both;"></div> <p> </p> </blockquote> </p> <p>Right there. That was it.</p> <p> </p> <p> </p> <p>You did it yourself right there - immediately brought up the cost factor. You steered the conversation right to money, and not to something like operations, or hurdles. Went right for the money, because you think that is what we have the issue with. Hell, I'm not even in ground service anymore. So even if we had crewless trains, I'd probably still have a job where I'm at.</p> <div style="clear:both;"></div> <p>[/quote]</p> <p><span style="font-family: verdana,geneva;"><span style="font-size: small;">Why is it unfair to bring up the cost factor? Isn't that the point of automation?</span></span></p>
