<P mce_keep="true">[quote user="zugmann"] <P>I think the truth is that many railfans couldn't care less about the human side of railroading. They only care about the locmotives, paint schemes, and bragging rights of getting photos accepted at railpictures.net. </P> <P>Why? I don't know. I think it is the whole anti-labor thing we have going on in this country. Office workers deserve $50K a year to watch youtube and sit in an air conditioned/heated office, but heaven forbid someone that spends 30+ years in the elements at all times of day and night be able to support a family....</P> <P>[/quote]</P> <P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt"><FONT face=verdana,geneva>Zugmann,</FONT></P> <P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt"><FONT face=verdana,geneva></FONT> </P> <P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt"><FONT face=verdana,geneva>In general, I don’t think railfans are uncaring about railroaders.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>In fact, I think it is pretty much just the opposite, but it’s just that they see no distinction between labor and management.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>Both are part of the organization that railfans admire, so it may be hard to rally them onto your side in your disagreement with management, should one occur.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN></FONT></P> <P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt"><SPAN style="FONT-SIZE: 12pt; FONT-FAMILY: 'Times New Roman'; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-fareast-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-language: AR-SA"><FONT face=verdana,geneva size=2></FONT></SPAN> </P> <P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt"><SPAN style="FONT-SIZE: 12pt; FONT-FAMILY: 'Times New Roman'; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-fareast-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-language: AR-SA"><FONT face=verdana,geneva size=2>Also, I don’t sense the anti-labor thing that you mention is going on in our country.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>I sense a major anti-business thing though.</FONT></SPAN></P>
