[quote]QUOTE: <i>Originally posted by jruppert</i> <br /><br />I know a young guy who had a chance to work for the UP but turned it down because he knows an old guy who used to work for the UP and all of his complaints about working for the UP and that's a shame. <br /> <br /> If I could work for the railroad I would do so gladly, but I have kidney failure, and even though I am young (35), I know that for me this is not a reality. Before I had kidney failure, I was a diesel mechanic on marine and power generation engines. So many other guys that I went to school with were holding out for the money, I knew as long as I was out there every day pushing iron the money would come and I never had trouble finding work. <br /> <br />That same old guy I mentioned says the young guys that he worked with adopted a screw it attitude very quickly because of the way management treated everyone. The collective concious of the poeple in a company is a microculture. Problems of moral and comunications become self perpetuating, and that's a shame. Maybe in time it will get better, until then keep the lights on and the wheels turning. <br /> <br />As for the lawsuite, somebody has too much time on their hands. <br />[/quote] <br /> <br />UP sounds like they are having very similar problems as CN has been having since privtization, there doesn't seem to be a sinlge happy RTE working for CN.
