This is kind of like having a tape recorder in the locker room. I get to review the gossip from the weekend.

Thanks for the vote of confidence, but as Ed said - I really don't want the job. The one I have is more than enough. This is my play time and don't want to work too hard at it.

Stars! After this many, it is like birthdays - you really don't want any more. They could just erase them all and put them back in their star box. I would rather have the information and a straight shot at some people's funny bone once in awhile. That's enough for anyone!

So leave me out of management and just give me your usual good information/advice. I like that much better.

oh, from my work on the BRRM forum, they can add more, and they could change it from stars to practically anything


Hmmmmmm. Locomotive perhaps? Crossbucks?

Mook-

It should be like any management job on the railroad. Try it for a while, if you don't like it you can exercise your seniority and come back with the rest of us...lol...

Do the stars change color again, or is 5 red as high as you can go?

Does something happen at 5000?

LC - if it is like management around here - take Fridays off - the whole day. Take Monday off cuz weekend was pretty hard on the bod, play golf, take naps and socialize. I can't qualify for that, cuz I don't play golf. Would clear the whole golf course and make Jerry Ford (ex-pres) look like Arnie Palmer!
