I'm afraid many people who are so willing to leave will find themselves in shock when they realize that grass is really not that greener elsewhere.

We can't lose anybody else!
We literally can't afford to lose any more people. The situation is already so bad and risks are enormous with as few people as we have left that a child could see cutting any more would bring us on the verge of disaster. With that being so... — read more
Wish UPRR would get serious about real cost cutting.

The StraightUp Truth
Vena and Fritz don’t give a f— about you. They want to make as much money as possible before selling their stock and forgetting about the company. If you died tomorrow they wouldn’t give a damn.
