Rairoads pay extra board employees 40 hours of pay per week regardless of whether they work or not. The real downside of this, however, is that they are on call, once they are "rested". They may work 20, 30 or more days in a row with minimum time off. Don't dare miss a call, however, and don't mark off--extra board employees will usually have to give their lives to the railroad until they either quit, die, or finally get get enough seniority to hold a regular (ha-ha) job.
