Greetings I made a decision today, and that was to choose my partner over my job. Being at the bottom of the barrel, my future schedule was only going to get worse. So on Monday my resignation goes into effect. To those of you out there thinking about choosing the railroad as a career. You may think that you have discussed with those close to you about what all the demands of the job entail. BUT YOU ARE WRONG, you will never be able to anticipate the strain and your family will be taxed to the limit trying to understand why you are not there when they think you should be. I'm lucky , I have other marketable skills to fall back on, so I will just enter another chapter in my life. But I did work for the railroad for 9 glorious months, was promoted to conductor, soothed passengers and kicked some off my train. Am I sad about leaving? Yes. Do I regret my decision to leave? No. Because my family is worth it. So long Amtrak it was fun. G Lo
