I'll say that working on the RR is a royal pain in the ***. The actual job is not that tough. I find being a good/effecient switchman is a challenge and that is why I stay. It is the New Hire part that sucks. By New Hire, I mean anybody with a hire date after '95. As I posted elsewhere, just finding work and staying working is tough. I work with NH's (like the kind that Wabash despises) that layoff constantly. I love them for that! It makes the extra boards turn fast and I make more money! I don't layoff! As far as women, I treat them no different than a guy. Period. If they know what they are doing and don't try to get me killed, I'm fine with them, same as a guy. I have had some darn good female engineers and some poor ones too. On the women issue: the only thing that I think that is unfair is the fact that in my terminal the women seem to get handled with kid gloves when it comes to discipline. I have seen several that have violated the attendance policy the same if not worse than a male counterpart and guess who ends up sitting in an investigation, yes the guy!
