Norm,
I go by what I read in the quarterly and annual reports, and I do read them. I really do not care about the value of the stock over the short term (more interested in dividend yield) Unless the reports are a complete fabrication and there's massive fraud going on, both carriers appear to be doing alright or maybe even a little better than alright. Yes, I know, the reports don't tell you everything, but they are a pretty good indicator of the health of the business, especially if one goes through the financials.
About morale being low.. morale is almost always low no matter who the employer happens to be. Sometimes its because the employer is doing a poor job, and sometimes its because people have made up their minds to be unhappy and disatisfied. ..usually its a combination of the two.
A few observations:
1. The hate-filled ageism seen here by the 65+ crowd is amazing, even more so since many of them voted for the current (as of 5/19/2017) occupant of the WH.
2. The views of current and terminated CN and CP employees might just be a wee bit biased, though understandably so.
I also have no skin in the game. Let's see where poorly performing CSX is in two years.
schlimm,
based on previous agreements I believe you are in violation of them therefore I am terminating the agreement we reached a few years ago. Your intent is nothing more than an intent to stir the pot and create dissention among the troups. All bets and agreements between us are off. You have revealed yourself to the political position you stand for. You have declared all bets off at this point.
Take your degree which I have doubt of and your sense of self-worthiness and stick it where the sun don't shine. You have been feeding us a line of bull for years. I speak for myself but think others think the same of your attitude toward those who don't have the level of education you think necessary to form an opinion. You , in your manner, have corrupted this forum in the name of political correctness. You occasionally slide something in to back up your agenda.
Show us the proof or shut up. We are tired of listenning to your political agenda. IOW, GFYS! Your ilk is not welcomed by those of who are railfans.
I will not be awaiting a reply but wil be waiting to hear what others think.
