HDC Layoffs

I heard 42 dispatchers and coridor managers got walked out of the HDC today. Anyone else heard anything? With all these close calls latetly how can they cut down on dispatchers even more?

Paycut update

Well fellow managers looks like their going to extend our pay cuts through the rest of the 2020.

Union Pacific is hiring

Manager's starting pay: $38k salary with 12 weeks off no pay per year. Ask the current manager's they'll tell you how great it is.... Kind of embarrassing if you ask me. A laborer making more money than a manager.

Ethics

Does anyone else get a good laugh when you are preached to about ethics when you log onto the company web site? I’m pretty sure everything that is happening at this company is like the furthest thing from high ethical standards. I’m pretty sure upper... — read more

Rail news

I thought it was a great news column that said a railroad actually helped a lot of people by delivering food, helping families out hit with covid-19, and making sure their employees were ok financially during the pandemic. Just when I was proud of UP... — read more 

No Excuses, No Mercey

Cameron S. Was just hired by Omnitrax.

Talk about a fall from grace! How embarrassing for him! One would think he would have been let go with a pile of cash therefore never needing to work again. He probably used to make fun of people that worked at short lines. I noticed all the rejects... — read more

Rock Springs TX derailment

Congrats to Fritz and Vena. PSR is going great. Nothing like piling up 60 cars next to the Highway. I'm sure the BLEVE will be making the rounds on the evening news. Good thing we don't need to maintain track anymore

And boom just like that time to call ot in north platte.

The whole undertime didnt last long for the golden child diesel shop. Dont worry I'm sure the union is on it to get all the people furloughed back to work. Sure was nice we could do our part for the overlord company and they will repay us in turn

Heres an idea

Instead of all the Carmen striking and refusing to work, why not strike in a different way and give 100 percent at your job? What are you going to get fired? How exactly would the company explain that? How could your Union excuse that? I challenge... — read more
