Norfolk Southern is holding a hiring session for the position of conductor trainee, in my town tomorrow. <br /> <br />I notice from reading at NSCorp website about the position offered , that hours are determined by call from an extra board, and that Employees are not guaranteed 40 hours per week, but are paid for time spent performing train service.. <br /> <br />Question: typically, how many hours of service would a newly hired conductor expect to get each week? <br /> <br />Is there a VERY real risk that he might only see 20 hours of work per week, or is this disclaimer mostly a "cover their tail" type thing for NS?
