"No; doing the job comes first.  Courtesy is second. Go stand by the highway and wave at all the cars and trucks.  See how many wave back.  See how many use more than one finger.  Railroading isn't super-happy-fun-time.  It is work." Pure gold, Zlugger. I'm glad someone finally put it like that. Midnight Railroader, you need to find better things to get bent out of shape about, bud. If you've spent so much time in a locomotive cab as you claim, you should understand the importance of keeping your eyes and mind on the game. Form A's and B's, signals, conductor log entries, defect detectors, and the errant trespasser come at you fast when you're rolling along at 60+ MPH. Add to that the fact that, as many have already pointed out, the air conditioning is going, the window's going to be closed. I don't know about the other rails out there, but the last thing on my list of priorities is opening the window, letting out the cold air and having my sh1t scattered all over the desk. Come on now, that just don't cut it. Anyhoo, lighten up a little and see this as the industry it is. It's not all about sunny skies, smiling faces, and for God's sake, waving.
