Working running trades for a railroad ISN'T a job. It's a LIFESTYLE. More specifically I'd say a young single man's lifestyle. It controls every single facet of your existence. When you sleep, or don't. Eat or don't. Go bathroom, or don't. Attend a family gathering, event, appointment, or more often than usual, don't. Are able to make a relationship work, or not. I always say the pay isn't for the work. It's for all the things one has to sacrifice because of the work.

As long as the hog head doesn’t get a knuckle,drawbar,air hose or the crews get a dragging equipment or hotbox…..most road conductors will do nothing but sleep!!!! A road conductor is one job you can come to work tired especially since there’s PTC!

A bunch of times in some of these departments, it's like 6 day work weeks at 12hrs a pop totaling 72hrs a week. How the hell is a person supposed to get done all of their other duties outside of the job? This kind of schedule might work for a single person without a social life. But for married people or those who are dating or those who like to party during a 72hr a week work schedule?? Forget it... Not in this line of work. Move on elsewhere to another career.

Fuck class 1 and 2 railroads. Any of you wanting to get on the railroad should try to get on a class 3 shortline railroad, a good number of them actually have set days off even for the extra board. I worked for the IAIS (a class 2) and we never had days off, I would have had to been there for about 16 years before id be able to actually bid and hold a job. We'd work 12's every day, and they'd pull that loop hole of informing you that they were gonna call you in on your rest before you tied up, so youd go home and 8 or 9 hours later the phone goes off again. Theyd never let you get that 6th start, theyd work you for 5 then give you just enough time off for your starts to reset back to 0, then theyd be calling again. After the IAIS I got on the IANR (a class 3) and was blown away when I was told their extra board has 2 set days off a week, they were wednesday and thursday. I didnt know what to do with all that time off, Id sit there like, what do normal people do when theyre not at work?... I could actually shut my phone off, plan things, finish movies, and best of all not live with the dread of the phone going off as soon as your head hits the pillow after staying up all fucking day and night waiting for the call. I loved the IAIS, they actually treated you really well compared to other railroads, but theres only so many birthdays, holidays, get togethers you can miss before you say fuck this. It should be work to live, not live to work. So if youre looking to get on the railroad, look into shortlines or even switching companies like Railserve, Savage, Rj Corman or Rail Link. Switching companies have amazing set schedules, and its still railroading... as much as it can be. lol

And if you're good, maybe in 15 to 20 years of cumulative service without a sick day you can work swing shifts with two days off a month and a even receive a special one week holiday in late January during the dead of winter. Sounds about right in Keith Creel's delusional version of the railroad.

I realize your comment is old and you are most likely real young. You ALWAYS have to be ready to go into work within 90-120 minutes (depending what your job requires). If you are with your family for the holidays you are already aware that you are expected to be within a 90-120 minute drive to work.

If you are over the age of 30,forget about these, companies, they are only looking for young people, also if your not born here & from a minority theres a less chance to get hired these days,in the application these companies specifically ask if you belong to a MINORITY, welcome to canada.(bc),ALSO BE WILLING TO TAKE LOT OF SHIT FROM OTHERS ON YOUR HEAD.

wise comments In the US they ask if you're a minority to see if you quality for affirmative action programs. Canada is more liberal than the states so I presume you're full of shit.
@ssbohio
@ssbohio 6 жыл бұрын
Asking someone's minority status isn't the same as discriminating against them. In fact, the questions are asked in order to prevent discrimination, so hiring statistics can be reviewed. For example, if a certain percentage of applicants were of one group and a much smaller percentage of successful hires were of that group, that would be a cue for the employer or government regulator to take a look at why there was a discrepancy. Some things are what they appear to be, rather than something nefarious.
