User ID: 83138485 United Kingdom 08/18/2022 04:56 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | So the word has come down that there will be a strike but it will only last a day or 2 because congress will step in and do something about it. Quoting: SunshineRay Ok not a surprise about that but what I'm hearing is a lot of guys aren't coming back if their demands aren't met. They've lined up other job opportunities to take. 15 guys have already walked off up north, all on the same day, with no plans on returning. That particular yard usually has 30 trains or more go through it a day now it is so backed up they can't even move one. Been like that a week now. There was a meeting held to see if 120 yard masters and train masters would be able to handle the work load of moving the trains during the strike, not going to happen. Apparently the track guys and everyone is going on strike as well. There won't be anyone to inspect the track or throw the switches or fill the engines with gas etc. Be prepared. Even if the strike doesn't last a long time a bunch of guys might not be coming back to move those trains. That train ent a stopping... Operation Nexus |

User ID: 79304616 United States 08/18/2022 06:27 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | This will definitely halt AMTRAK as well, if it happens. The freight lines own all the track that AMTRAK runs on. The day the soldiers stop bringing you their problems is the day you stopped leading them. They have either lost confidence that you can help them or concluded that you do not care. Either case is a failure of leadership. |

Sept 16th is when all railroads can strike if both parties can't agree. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 80164046 Fun times to come. . Let me clarify, when all the unions on the railroads can strike. (Or the carriers can lock us out) from working until we take the contract. . |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 83401836 United States 08/18/2022 06:43 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | pulled from redd1t.... Rant Union rep here. Yes one of those guys you’re bitching about. Ima fuckin lay it out. All you stupid fucks blaming your union for this… guess what you’re a idiot. They brought a lot more to the table to fight for you. The carriers wanted you to suffer. Union said no we want a PEB so that maybe we can have a chance at bettering our union employees. PEB fucked us. Not the union. They sided mainly with the company. Again not the unions fault. I will tel you what I’m hearing from gcs and other lcs. They do not like this and are awaiting further negotiation with the carriers. Again the unions are fighting for you. We can have this shoved down our throat with congress. Or it could be better. Or it could def be worse. That isn’t up to the union. That’s the government. You want to strike? Guess what so do most of if not all your union reps and leaders. We have to abide by the RLA. Wanna know why? If we don’t we go to jail. Not just union leaders or reps. But YOU YES YOU CAN TO. If congress forces us to work and you don’t.. you can be held in contempt and in violation of a congressional order. You can be sued personally by the railroad for lost income as can your union and reps and leaders. Wildcat? Go for it. See where it gets you. Same as above but the moment they find out who started it they are fucked. Iirc a while back with high viz starting there were people on YouTube and fb calling for it. Guess ya all forgot how it got shut down hard and fast. Shit is the way it is not because your unions. It’s because of pieces of shit at the rr you work for not giving 2 fucks about you. /end rant |
