Yet More CSX 'Buffoonery'!

Hello Again LordGear...you're response was welcomed. We have too much in common. The one rule change that we have that I really hate the most is not being able to get on and off moving equippment! I believe that this rule has single-handedly slowed down more job's than anything else, and made the work more difficult. Sometimes I just have to get off on the 'fly' just for fun when no one's around. As you probably know, the U.P. crew's stuck together and successfully fought this rediculous rule. Where I work, we use 'Utilities' to help the 'short-crew's' with their 'move's' etc. But even though they 'attach' themselves to a crew, the 'road-crew's' still can get penalty slip's for going over their maximum amount of said move's etc. I know all to well about the difficulty of getting rest etc, and getting caught-short out of town etc., that's why I gave up the 'road', and went to 'Hostler-Pilot' job's. We shuttle road-power around the Seattle Terminal so the Pool-crew's do'nt 'fornicate the canine' and wind up on 'I.T.' or overtime. Funny how it really does'nt help though. Like you said, there are a million way's that the rule's enable a crew to achieve those end's. The money is'nt as good, but the quit's are great...take care...Hommie
