The main issues are wages and benefits.

Ain't it always?

Just a reminder, it was FDR that legalized labor unions in the National Labor Relations Act of 1935. I’m still looking for that one in the US constitution.

If a strike occurs, the entire supply chain is going to be crushed going into the November election. You won’t notice at first, but things will really start backing up by September.

Call me crazy or we’ll prepared. I have already done Christmas shopping for my grandchildren so they, at worst, have some kind of a Christmas. Who knows what ruin we will see this year.

Actually, the RR corps have been mistreating the RR workers. They’re working the crap out of them and reducing employees.

“Transportation Secretary Butty-gig has got this, no problem.”

Out of the many Secretaries of Transportation this nation has had over the decades, he may possibly be the worst qualified to head that Cabinet.

Zero level of confidence that he’ll be able to handle any of this. He really could not find his you know what without two hands and several aides to assist him.

Unions existed in the U.S. long before FDR and the NLR Act. But the Act did strengthened unions’ hands.

Like coal miners, their unions and the coal industry, railroad workers, their unions, and the rail history have a long and rather unhappy relationship. Memories are long and grudges are held on to.

I have no idea which side is in the right, but the idea that Joe is going to solve things is laughable.

While wages they make may be quite adequate, working conditions including not knowing when you will be called for your next shift, disciplinary points for laying off for medical reasons or family emergency, and constant management inward camera monitoring make the job intolerable. Young persons with little seniority are quitting, older workers have to decide whether to put up with the new rules or loss pensions and most training classes lose members voluntarily well before completion.
