C1's don't value the people that make it all happen! Those people are not in the Board Rooms. Railroads that thrive, do it despite their management's efforts - not because of management.

Don't have to go further than the contract "negotiations" to see that.
It's been fun. But it isn't much fun anymore. Signing off for now.
