Honestly, I'm so tired of this place that I already made the decision to leave one way or another. The only reason I'm still here is a hope to get severance. With so many layoffs taking place, I don't want to leave on my own and then find out that I could have been laid off with a package if I had waited it out.
Something tells me I'm not alone in this...
Keep up the good work world wide mso sincerely up management
Never love anybody who treats you like you're ordinary.
If you want to know where your heart is, look to where your mind goes when it wanders.
Mso doing a wonderful job worldwide not not derailing locomotives that’s saving money big bucks derailing cost money. Good job up management
This is not about what to do it’s about money right now lance don’t care he just wants his Lamborghini and his Mantion home his bonus mso is the lowest paid craft he’s trying to reduce crafts that make more money machinist electricians fg1s foremens managers the yard crew know as transportations side that’s who he’s looking at money makers that’s why he’s Offering buy outs buy outs because machinist and electricians are old people over 45 years old or maybe more of age they just sit around locomotives and smoke we need young employees make triple the job and triple the money mso could use a wrench we can do the job just get trained that will save big bucks apprentice jobs we need mso there doing a perfect job building America go round and around the world we’re outside building America don’t matter the weather we’re moving like locomotives keep moving good job Union Pacific management
Maybe in another location they do more. That's management's responsibility to write people up. All I know, I'm hustler qualified, pick up and clean up my mess and I'm also able to work on a diesel engine and the air system that 98% of you laborers cant do.
Almost forgot, the locations that have mso in the yards in a truck will actually be the ones doing oil and water after it was found low or off the dipstick or sight glass when a machinist signed it off as good to go before leaving the roundhouse. But keep telling yourself theyre useless if it makes you feel better or think it gives you more job security.
You mean crafts used to derail.... a lot! And let's face it in addition to moving they do the sh-- we dont want to do. Like pick up after ourselves or sand locomotives.
It's not about putting out more work. i have 10 years as a machinist. I was a diesel mechanic on the outside. Except for moving locomotives, which an electrician and machinist use to do. Mso aren't really needed. MSO aren't a craft and do not do much of anything.
Mso keep up the good work
Why's the young bloods have to be msos gone wild? most of us younger crafts put out more work than you old timers who will be retiring soon enough and replaced by more of us. That being said and having come up from an mso back in the day, you have to be one of those who came in as a journeyman and can't appreciate the work they do.
And on another episode of MSO's Gone Wild!
I think I am 20<5-5% dumber now after reading this thread.
Can't we just teared down that wall Mr. Trump, we need more immigration to run the railroad, after the layoff? And it's 10>30=20% worker lay-off.
I hope everyone quits and this place melts down. Im looking for an out like everyone else. Cant wait to see the exodus after bonus time. Funny but I think they know thisand will give stock which most wont collect on in 4 years when they quit before then.
For the j--koff who keep saying Carman Frieght Yard Transportation...You must be a foamer that is dumb as a box of hammers. And by the way it is foremen NOT foremans....
So you have no idea how unions work. "They need young bloods" the young people are the ones who will be furloughed lol man.... you cant just give it up can you?
I've been in a railroad family most of my life, my grandfather was New York, new haven and Hartford, my dad has been new haven, Penn central and union Pacific and I'm union Pacific for the past 10 years. What no one understands is that we are pawns. Just a number. Its personal to us but to the railroad its business. When we hired into the railroad we knew that lay offs could happen.
Do you really think 10% from one department and 20% from a different department equals 30%? If so, you’re as stupid with math as you are with grammar and critical thinking.
It’s transportation side and freight side. We’re theres fg1s foremens managers crew team and yard team good luck it’s coming what a gift that will equal the 30 percent 10 plus the 20 equals the 30 percent lay off on January and July of 2019. It’s called the 2020 plan I’m Jeromy management
"No it’s not car department is we’re they repair freight cars and move Mechanical is we’re they repair locomotive big difference we’ll car department is next percent for 30 percent not mechanical"
Gabby Johnson: I wash born here, an I wash raished here, and dad gum it, I am gonna die here, an no sidewindin' bushwackin', hornswagglin' cracker croaker is gonna rouin me bishen cutter.
Well what ever it it don’t make a difference it’s the same company we’re all going Santa Claus is coming to town lay offs are coming to town
They just did 10 percent and 20 percent equals 30 and that’s there goal total of 30 percent it’s coming
Ummmm that would be “your grammar”
First its FG1's, Forman, transportation and MOP's, then its car dept. Fright side and yard crews "that's the 30 percent" now its Carman dept. And transportation at 20%. Seems as with you're Grammer and misspelling you are not with the U.P. elite and are just a turd looking for attention. Move on and stop spamming topics.
Carman department and transportation side is next on the 20 percent next round
We all still getting lay off soon or later
Quit eating r----d sammiches and posting the same b---s--- on every thread please. Seriously. Thanks 😉
Wtf is "car department freight side" you're killing us. "Mechanical car department" and "mechanical locomotive department" ARE BOTH MECHANICAL!
Transportaion knowns as yard crew or yard team not mechanical is next
Well the layoffs is going to be in freight side transportation its known as crew yard or crew team such as fg1# foremans mops managers and yardmasters are the next cuts in tge 30 percent
No, Car and Locomotive are both part of Mechanical. There is no car dept. freight side in Transportation.
Its the same company but seperated car department freight side and transportion are together and mechanical shop is locomotives only but the cuts are going to be in car department the rest of the lay off percentage
Wow. He’s both semi-illiterate AND factually incorrect. Great combo!
First, I think he meant: “No it’s not. Car department is where they repair freight cars and move. Mechanical is where they repair locomotives. Big difference. Well, car department is next percent for 30 percent, not mechanical.” Still not perfect, but easier to read.
But what he said is also factually incorrect, since locomotive mechanical and car mechanical are both part of mechanical department.
Next cut layoffs are car department freight side and transportation. That’s the next percentage
