CSX, <br /> <br /> I know what you mean about the company coming down hard. Four day weekends now??? Come on! Our manpower problem is so critical that we never have enough people to run trains, and now they want to fire us over minor stuff???? We are so short on engineers, that there are often 3 to 5 dead trains sitting unmanned in or near our terminal. The company will probably respond by sending all the engineers charge letters for taking a weekend day off and be given time off when the RR needs them most. The only reason I'm not out on my rest right now is because there are no engineers available to run trains, THANKS GUYS!!!! [bow] At least I can go out with my wife and have a nice dinner instead of rushing out the door with four hours sleep. <br /> <br />What I don't understand is that the RR's are so short on manpower right now, that you'd think the labor unions would have more bargaining power because we are needed so bad! Yet, the transportation employees continue to get hit over the head with charge letters, time off ,etc for BS. Maybe an old head can explain this to me?? <br /> <br />Nathan
